I bought this tree on sale for half price after my old artificial tree wore out. I was hesitant to buy a tree on line because of not being able to see it and touch it. I wasn't disappointed with this purchase. It is very easy to set up and assemble, although it's a bit heavy so get help if you have a bad back or neck. All of the lights worked and the electrical connections from one section to the next are idiot proof. I haven't completely arranged the branches to fill out yet but worked with a number of them when I connected all of the sections to test the lights. They fill out nicely and are easy to arrange. I'm pleased with the needles and color of the branches and trunk covering. I look forward to fully decorating it in 4 weeks. I would not hesitate to recommend this tree on sale. I would not pay full price for it, however. 

Pros: Easy to assemble and a very nice shape and color
Cons: There are so many safety tags that have to be removed from the tree that it's ridiculous.
