This is exactly what we wanted! The shipping was super fast. We received it before the expected delivery date.  Owe ordered this to replace our 7.5ft artificial prelit pine we have had for 14 years. We needed to replace it before, but this year there was no doubt with the shedding of needles. It was worse than having a real tree.  One of the biggest surprises was when we opened the box and there were only a few loose needles.  I would definitely recommend this tree. Now we can’t wait for next Christmas to actually use it.
