I purchased this tree to fit the corner at the landing of the stairs, so I knew it had to be slender. Pictures fail to show just how slim this tree is! We had a difficult time finding room for more than fifty 2” ball ornaments, and used just two strings of cool LED lights (strands are 14’ each). So while it is 6ft in height, it’s meager diameter shouldn’t be understated. Works acceptably for the area on the stairs, but I’d not purchase it as a primary tree.
