This tree is perfect! After reading some reviews I was worried about how it was going to look. But when I took it out of the box I was very pleased. I bought a big basket to put the tree in as the pot it comes in is very small. After a bit of fluffing the leaves and adjusting some branches the tree looks wonderful. It looks very real unless you get up very close and really look at it. At any rate, I'm very happy with my purchase!
