This tree was such a great surprise! We weren’t sure how it would really look based on the price. This was our first year ever going artificial so we had no idea what to expect. The tree is so realistic and so beautiful. People for sure thought it was cut and brought in. Took some time to fluff the branches, which I actually enjoyed as I wasn’t getting poked and cut like I do when putting lights on a fresh cut tree. Love it, great purchase!
