I am pretty picky about all my purchases, and am pleased with this one.  I would give it a 4 and a half if given the option.  Not perfect per say, but a good product for the price.  It's difficult to find "fake trees" that look good, and this one is semi-convincing from a distance.  I placed it in a prettier pot and it looks even better.  If you want a faux plant that looks 100% real, I would pass on it.  But, if you want a good value on a semi-real looking tree, this is perfect.  I would recommend it to a friend.
