This is a high-quality product and I am more than happy with it. I purposely bought this tree because it was the most expensive and best-looking (in the photos) artificial tree of its size that I could find on Amazon. I'm very glad I did.OUT OF THE BOX - Once i got it out of the box (easy), I spent a total of about one hour working with individual branches to bring them down and arrange them to look as real as possible. I plugged in the lights while I worked on it. The more I worked with the individual branches to duplicate what real trees look like, the more realistic this little tree looked. Overall, all of the branches need to be bent downward a bit and the ends straightened out to look the way you would want it. It's packed in a box with the all of the branches bent upward to fit into the box, so these need to be bent down a big by hand to set it up. However, in addition, there also are branches back in toward the trunk that need to be bent up and spread out, particularly among the longer branches on the lower part of the tree. The more I worked on it, the fuller it looked, and the more evenly distributed the lights became, and the more natural it looked.QUALITY AND DESIGN - This is a well-made product. Strong, well-balanced, the branches firmly attached and quite easy to shape, and the lights firmly entertwined with them. I worried a bit as I worked in shaping the branches that I would somehow disconnect the lighting, but, that didn't happen. The modeling of of the evergreen needles themselves also earns an A. they are quite natural looking. Whoever designed this tree obviously looked closely at real items in fashioning it duplicate nature as closely as they could.REAL LOOK - It definitely looks real -- real enough for me at least, and I'm pretty particular and would not have a fake-looking tree in my house.LIGHTS - One other review mentioned it could have more lights. No way! It's got plenty of lights, and I wouldn't want any more. It has more lights, for example, than what you see in the Amazon photo of it. They are a fairly bright, warm white, standard incandescent christmas tree lights (they are not LEDs). I like the lights very much - the number, the way they are attached, the sturdy wiring of them, and the even distribution.DIMENSIONS - The stated size of the product is correct. I measured it and it is exactly 48 inches tall including the burlap-wrapped base once the top-most branch is straightened. The burlap-wrapped base is 9 inches wide and 4 and a half inches tall, with a couple inches of trunk rising above the top of the base before the first bottom branches emerge from the trunk. The base is fairly heavy, which I like because I can trust that this tree will not tip over.STORAGE -- Now that i've got it spread out to where I like it, I will not mess the tree up by folding it back up to put it back into the box it came in. Instead, I've already stored it in the bottom of a closet (until time to pull it out after Thanksgiving) with one of those large outdoor "leaf" plastic bags slipped over it, which fits it perfectly without putting pressure on the wire limbs.ONCE AGAIN, I am thoroughly pleased with this purchase, glad to pay what I did for it, and recommend it to others looking for a smaller, real-looking artificial Christmas tree.I love this little tree! It’s perfect for our small Brooklyn apartment. It took a little while to fan the branches out, but the tree is definitely easy to assemble—just be patient! Once you get them all flushed out, the tree looks very full and holds a bunch of ornaments. Each branch has two types of needles: the softer plastic ones are on the inside, which give it a full appearance, while the piney plastic tips at the end of each branch create a natural looking exterior. I grew up with huge (15-20ft) natural Christmas trees every year at my family’s home and this was my first faux tree, so I took a lot of time to research options that would feel classy and traditional while accommodating a small space. This one did not disappoint! The lights are evenly placed and have a soft, golden glow—ideal for those who love a tungsten hue. The burlap base is super cute and looks great alone if you don’t want to invest in a tree skirt. I look forward to having this tree for many holidays to come!The quality of this tree is great so I'll give it that! It does fluff pretty full! What I am frustrated about & disappointed in is the fact that it looks like there are definitely more lights on the bottom half of the tree than on the top half of the tree, meaning I am going to have to add more lights to fill in the gap.The other thing is that there is not a plug at the top of the tree to attach to a topper. There are 2 different cords with plugs that must be attached (one for the top half of the tree & one for the bottom half) that would normally connect somewhere in the mid section of the tree & only the bottom string would plug into the wall. But they both come off the bottom of the tree, must be connected to eachother & plugged into the wall for both strands to light up. What was the point of this?? Why doesn't the top strand have a plug at the top of the tree for a topper??? Why do both cords come off the bottom of the tree when they must be attached before being plugged into the wall? This means there are 2 cords coming from the bottom of the tree & going to the wall, instead of just one.For 4 feet tall & $92 they definitely could have designed the cords to make more sense & distributed the lights evenly.This was easy to set up and take down. It was even better looking than I was expecting and got compliments on how real it looked. I added extra lights, but it would have been fine with just the ones it came with.This is a nice looking tree - it was purchased to put up after my 7' Christmas tree was taken down for the season. I wanted a small, table top tree to hang snowflakes on for the winter months. The tree looks fine however the top set of lights didn't work. (I put on a set of my own lights.) There was a section of the lights that wasn't hooked to anything, so that was probably the issue. (Why aren't these tested before they are shipped out, I wonder?) The top of the tree is a bit sparse and the burlap covering on the base is a joke - I ended up putting the tree in an empty brass planter, which looks a lot better than the burlap base. The tree has a lot of bare space on the trunk area (the actual tree top to bottom row of branches only measures 36".) The tree has a good base (under the burlap) so it is sturdy and won't tip over too easily. The box it came in was a bit mangled so better packaging would be nice, too. Truly can't recommend this tree - way too much money for a defective product.We’ve always purchased real trees for the last 25 years this year we’ve moved into a smaller place and have purchased for cats so we decided to downsize her tree and when I saw this one online it looked beautiful when I received it it was even better in person fit perfectly and my cat stay away from it Because I said it on a night stand in the living room. It was a little pricey but it does look real so in the end totally worth it I’m very happy with it and glad I bought itEl árbol como tal está muy bonito pero la base llego rota! Lo bueno es que no se cae pero si me decepcionó mucho la calidad ya que no sólo está rota está despedazada.
