Review on πŸŽ„ Kurt Adler 9-Inch UL0131S Silver Wire Treetop with 10 Lights by Derek Jha

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If you want a shining star for your tree, this is a great choice!

This star is exactly what I wanted: something bright and slightly cute to top my Christmas tree. When I first unboxed it I was a bit skeptical because it looked pretty cheap with all the silver threads crisscrossing it. But I put it up a tree, pocketed it and walked away. It looks really great (and actually not as crappy as I thought). All intersections allow the light to reflect and sparkle so it shines beautifully. I love having lots of light on my tree and it looks really good with all the other lights. I also like lots of tinsel on my tree, so the silver glow of the star complements the shine of the tinsel well. Some other reviews have complained that the base is too wide, but I don't think that was a problem. The base was about 2.5 cm in diameter and narrowed as it got closer to the star. I think it would be nice if you get one of those bulbous trees that sometimes appear. Or if you like silver fir, which seems to have longer needles. Also, the string from the star that connects to the top garland is a bit long, so I just wrapped the extra string around the top of the tree and the "wide" base hid the extra string well. I'm excited. use it year after year!
