This item was more expensive than some of the others but was all I could find with the pre-lit feature.  It is horrible!  It was squeezed into a long box and obviously, in doing so, it was damaged.  Parts of the glittered greens are crushed and the 4 longer, hanging greens are apparently the only way to affix it to the mailbox.  How, by tying them together?  I ordered it as a surprise for my sister-law for her holiday open house and I am embarrassed to give it to her.  The picture is very deceiving.  How is is attached to the mailbox so it withstands winter weather.  I am so very disappointed and would throw it away if it wasn't so late.  They should refund my money, for sure.  Do not buy this item.
