Review on ๐ŸŽ„ Xacool 6ft Artificial Christmas Tree with 1000 Tips and 118-Piece Ball Ornaments Set by Heidi Harter

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pretty nice tree, best in Trees section

Artificial trees aren't as pretty as they used to be when I was a kid, but it's a pretty decent tree. When it first arrived in a tiny and very light box I was worried I would be very disappointed, but once I put it all together I wasn't disappointed at all. It takes a long time to set up, but it's easy enough to do while watching TV or listening to music. The stand was easy to set up and all the wooden parts could be easily pushed together. The sections of the tree weren't labeled, so I wasn't sure if they had to go in any particular order or not. Obviously it's the top part so it's not a problem. I didn't like that the sections just pushed together without locking. Because of this, you have to move it very carefully so that it doesn't fall apart. However, once you have it in the right place, it's not a problem. What I really learned from this experience is that I'm not a good "lint tree". It's difficult to place all the branches in the right places to fill in all the gaps, but they move very easily to fill in the gaps. You can move them up, down and side to side. So once you've loosened up all the branches, you can rearrange them a bit to make the tree look even better. I lost a few small twigs trying to fluff up the branches. I think they just weren't very well connected, but in the end it didn't matter that much. The tree reaches a height of 6 feet as advertised, but keep in mind that about 8 inches of that is in the thin tip. It also has many decorations. Some are made of plastic and some are made of wood. Some of them are smooth and shiny. while others are shiny. It's a good mix and they look great on wood. I am happy with this tree and would recommend it.
