Review on 6-Foot National Tree Company Artificial Full Christmas Tree, Green North Valley Spruce with Stand by Mandy Rodriguez

Overall I'm pleased with this artificial Christmas tree from National Tree. The shape looks great. It was EASY to set up - and I'm not in very good health so it's a big deal! The tree consisted of three parts and a lightweight, fold-out stand. One simply removes the sections from the box; install a stand under the tree; Put the bottom part (the section with the longest branches) into the stand and fix it firmly with the supplied (screw) screw; Insert the next section's pole into the previous section's post, and then into the top. I had to use a stool because I'm 5ft 3in (slightly shorter but who cares) to get the top in place. This process was the easiest for me. together and firmly on the stand, fold down the hanging branches and start 'fluffing' - meaning all branches are neatly pinched together for (transport) and storage, so you'll have to take your time. to position the tips to make the tree look "real". was fairly easy, which is good for most people who have weight lifting limitations or health issues. Despite my health problems, I was able to set up the tree myself. to the promotional image. There are a few things I don't like, hence a full star deduction. Movable tips don't feel as secure as the previous artificial tree we used for 10 SEASONs; for example, they can't last that long. This worries me as this tree cost about the same as the previous tree. In addition, the tips are quite "light", so no heavy decorations. As we don't have much jewelry due to a recent loss and relocation this isn't a *big* deal for us but it could be a problem in the future and likely will be a problem for others. Finally, there are "gaps" - it doesn't look as "full" as advertised, for example. While this can be an advantage since more jewelry can be placed, the spikes, which don't have much power, negate this advantage to a large extent. So, it's a pretty nice and simple tree and that's all I wanted/needed for this year. I am pleased with how light the tree is (compared to the previous artificial tree which I could barely carry myself!), how easy it was to install and how it is shaped. Not bad for the price. In the future I would probably end up with a tree that gave more than 1346 clues per branch. Time will tell the longevity of this tree without pre-lighting.
