I’m a Christmas Decorator for businesses and high end homes.  This tree is for myself as we bought a home with 8’ ceilings and all my trees are taller. It is absolutely beautiful as advertised (not fluffed all the way or lit in pics.) I can easily bend the top to hold a large topperstar and clear my 8’ ceiling. 
The base is my only complaint.  It had one leg with bad welds and promptly broke when we put it together.  The metal base in general seems a little beneath the quality of the tree. This might be a fluke and others fine.  Customer service is great and I’m happy to keep this tree and would recommend you give it a try.
