The 5.5 ft tree is not very tall but it's cute and it works in my condo.  I secured it on top of a stool to give it some extra height.  It doesn't seem to be as full as the picture looks but I like having some 'empty' space to fit my bigger ornaments in, especially inside near the trunk.  It seems to be good quality, not too much shedding of needles.  I like the white trees, the colors of my glass ornaments pop!
