Review on πŸŽ„ WBHome 6FT Pre-lit Premium Spruce Hinged Artificial Christmas Tree: Delight with 300 LED Lights, 792 Sprout Branch Tips, and Pre-Decorated Prelit Pine Cones by John Warren

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If you want an artificial Christmas tree that doesn't look artificial, buy it

I wanted a tree; but this year I didn't feel like chasing a live tree. The problem is that all the fake trees I could find were incredibly unrealistic and incredibly expensive. After reviewing the Revain, I decided to try the 6ft WBHome tree. I went for this pine cone and berry strain mainly because it was the only strain I really liked, with Prime delivery arriving in less than a week; but I also liked it. It's very easy to set up out of the box. Unfold the base, insert the "C" section, then the "B" section, and finally the "A" section from the top. Sections C and B have foldable branches that fall down by themselves, section A is made of wire that needs to be carefully "fluffed up" to keep it looking good. And although C and B are folded down, as you can see in the first photo (which is partially puffed up above), she looks pretty naked; the hanging branches are tied and must be separated by hand. You can spend as much time as you like to get this "just right" but I took the second photo in just a few minutes. (I'm sure I'll play with it a bit more.) I've had much worse living trees! (Actually, this is the year I let myself be scammed by a kind and serious couple who clearly aspired to be "tree growers" but had a long way to go to spend almost as much as this fake for a meager thing might sympathetically be dubbed "Charlie Brown's Christmas Tree." Several artificial plastic berries fell off during assembly; it's not a loss, and it's not even noticeable. One of the welded support legs on the base is not welded properly and is loose at one end; it doesn't matter because the boom is light and the strut doesn't really have any constructive value. The box is heavy enough that I can keep it to repackage the tree for next year and next year. It's way better than any trees I've seen locally that cost $300 or more; and simply unbeatable for the price.
