The tree arrived a week earlier than promised. It is in fact very lightweight and just what we wanted. It took considerable time to arrange all the branch tips to fill it out and even then it wasn't anywhere near as full as the picture on Wayfair's sight thus the 4 stars. I am sure that after all the decorations are put on it will look fine. The picture supplied is only to show what it looks like without decorations, gaps and all. I also really like the various light settings provided.
For a $250 tree it is quite acceptable. It is lightweight, has plenty of lights, looks good and is easy to assemble. All things considered we would purchase it again.
