Review on πŸŽ„ Vickerman 30-inch Unlit Caramel Pine Artificial Christmas Tree: Seasonal Indoor Home Decor with Stylish Burlap Base by Sarah Greenwood

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Exactly what you hope for.

Mixed feelings. On the plus side it is exactly as expected - absolutely perfect and exactly as shown in the listing. Quality built and very lively including baby sized pinecones that scale to perfection. On the other hand, you'll have to spend about 45 minutes unwrapping and manually reshaping each branch individually. It takes a lot of time, but it's worth it if you take your time and do it right, starting at the bottom and working your way up. What worries me is that the process will naturally lose a few pins (which look and feel real). Maybe the wood will start to crack after a few years of packing and unpacking, but as long as you keep the box it came in and treat it with some care, I think you'll be fine. Also, mine didn't lean at all, which is good because it's firmly embedded in the base and you can't fix a crooked tree. I ended up buying a 30 inch tree and it measures exactly 31 inches from the bottom of the base to the top of the tallest branch. I love it. I only give it 4 stars because people tend not to believe 5 star reviews. I'm also very critical.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • So far so good
