I was so excited to get this tree as a replacement for one that we'd used for 20 years. We set it up, which took about two hours in order to get the tree assembled and all of the boughs spread out. It looked nice. We put the lights went on, and next, we started placing the ornaments. It was then that tree disaster struck. One of the legs on the tree stand collapsed and we watched in disbelief as the tree hit the floor--ornaments and all. What  happened to make a leg shear off like that? We don't know for sure, but think that it was a bad weld on an undersized stand. The tree is heavy; the stand is small, as you can see from the attached pictures. So, buyer beware lest the same thing happen to you. Wayfair refunded our purchase, which was helpful and appreciated. Still, this is a disappointment and not the way to start the season. If you do purchase this tree, consider replacing the stand section with a heavy-duty stand that fits.
