This tree is incredible, especially for the price. It isnt completely clear in the pictures I felt, but the branches are a mix of the real looking needles and the more typical type you get with artificial trees. Most of the end branches have the real look though.

The tree is also very full as long as you take the time to get all the branches well separated. Also comes with a ton of replacement lights which is nice because a few were still on my tree at least, and I still have many to spare for the years to come.
