I spent a lot of time researching artificial Christmas trees and chose this one based on tip count, clear and color LED lights, and price.  The tree was easy to put together and looked great.  As per other reviews, you do need to spend time fluffing for it to have that "retail" look but this was easy too.  Tree looked full and very realistic.  Holiday guests could not believe it was artificial.  I think the description says clear and colored lights but this tree has clear, pastel color and bright color choices (which was a nice surprise).  Taking the tree down was very easy and all pieces went into the tree bag I purchased without any problems.
