Very pleased with my purchase of this tree. Easy to assemble as it comes in 3 complete sections. Just open branches and fluff. Lights are already on the tree and comes with an extra set of lights. Some reviews stated they didn’t care for the areas of thinker snow, but that makes it look more authentic as those areas are where some branches meet like a tree on a hillside or in the middle of an open field catching newly fallen snow. If you would prefer less, it’s easy enough to thin it out.
