Beautiful tree. I read all the reviews and bought some green garland to wrap the trunk of the tree because so many reviews said it was not full or you could see straight through it. I put it together by myself and spent about two hours fluffing the branches. I didn’t need the garland. It turned out beautiful even without ornaments. My only issue is I had one strand of lights that wouldn’t work. It turned out I had a cut wire that kept it from working. It has been repaired and is now working. Considered returning it but spent too long working on it.  It was too expensive to have issues out of the box.
