This tree arrived only a few days after I ordered it. It was very easy to put together. You do have to spend some time pulling out the branches for fullness, but once you do that, it looks great!  I love that the connections for the lights are inside the center poles and you don't have to figure out what hooks up to what. It's a very nice full shape, and the lights are very well spaced. While I'll probably mostly keep it on the white lights, it's kind of cool to see all the other options available. I was worried about buying this sight unseen, but I'm very happy with it.
