I wouldn't say it's 6' as I am 5'4" and it's just as tall as me. It's still beautiful and it's pretty full as the picture shows. For the price I think I got what I wanted and more. I just added lights and lots of red cardinals and gold accents (butterflies and ornaments) and it's the perfect tree. It's especially great for smaller spaces as it is thin, or if you have several other trees up, it's a nice addition to the forest.
