This is a great Christmas tree. All I've managed to accomplish thus far is put the two pieces together and stand it up, I haven't even decorated it yet and everyone that's seen it has complimented me about its appearance. The size of the tree is perfect for my small apartment space and to give it slightly more height, I placed it on a foot high stool.  It arrived super fast (as everything I've ordered through Wayfair always does) and in perfect shape. Great value for the amazing price and promises to be one of the nicest trees I've ever had. Always thought Amazon set the benchmark for prompt efficient web purchases but Wayfair has moved to my number one spot!
