National Tree Company7 ft Pre-Lit North Valley Spruce Artificial Christmas Tree, 550 Clear Lights, 1,096 Tips, Glitter, Includes Stand, White

This tree is absolutely beautiful! But first, I have to talk about the delivery. I ordered it December 18 and the delivery was slated for December 24th. It turned up the next day, December 19! I was blown away by that. Delivery was from NJ to MA, so not a huge distance compared to some deliveries.Anyway, it's heavy. The package weighed 47 lb, so bear that in mind.The tree came in three pieces plus the stand, and the pieces are heavy, too. It's not 100% easy to assemble, but there are some things you can do to make it easier: Fluff the tree from the bottom up, but make sure to fluff the very top of the three before you add that piece, as it's hard to reach once it's up. The electrics were slightly confusing; each of the three pieces has a plug, and if you envisage the tree from the top down, each plug connects to the next until you get to the plug that goes into the outlet. For the people saying that whole sections of lights don't work, they probably have the plugs wrong, or they haven't found one of the plugs. I found one of them buried in the branches, and I could only see it once I had fluffed that part. Until I found that plug, the bottom section didn't light up. If you have a whole section that's not lit, you need to play around with the plug-to-plug-to-plug-to-wall-outlet connection system.You also have to spend quite a lot of time fluffing the tree to get it looking its best. I think I touched and fluffed all its branches.The inner part of the branch stems are black, and I'm going to paint them with wite-out or something. I think it will look better.It arrived with a couple of broken bulbs, but that's to be expected. It comes with a bunch of spares.The dark parts of the branches in the photo are just shadows. In real life, this tree is amazing, and the photo doesn't do it justice at all. It's much lighter, whiter, and sparklier in real life. I think $167 is a very fair price for such a large, gorgeous tree, especially since you can use it for many seasons.I couldn't be happier with this tree. It's a bit of a monster tree - it's not a set-up-and-go kind of proposition - but once you've dealt with the weight, connected the three plugs to each other and fluffed all the branches, you have a perfect storybook Christmas tree! It probably took me three-four hours from start to finish, working alone. But it's well worth the work!

Lights are great and the color is amazing. Our family had so much fun decorating it!

I have nothing bad to say about this tree. Easy to put up! Perfect size! The lights are warm and so pretty. This saved me so much time!! It’s so beautiful with my pink/white/gold/silver ornaments. I’m in love.Tips:-when assembling- the order is yellow, red, white. And the pieces can be a little heavy for some.-after assembling and spreading out the branches- get some fake snow fluff and start filling in all the gaps and cover the pole it the middle before you add ornaments- it really makes the tree look so pretty.- it will make a little mess on the floor with glitter.

The finished result looks amazing, but it took some modification to get it there.As other reviewers mentioned, the insides of the tree branches have bare wires (some with colored tags on them). Someone recommended wrapping them with white tinsel garland, which is what I did. It took about an hour of additional work, but was totally worth it. You only have to do it once, then your tree will be ready to go for future use. DO NOT put the tinsel against the sockets, plastic is flammable!Highlights:- Easy to assemble- Pretty full, but has some bald patches. It looks totally fine after wrapping the branches with garland.- The pre-lit lights look great- Covered in glitter, you will have to sweep after assembling- The best option I could find on Amazon for a full (not skinny) white tinsel tree.- Basically glows once it’s assembled, looks beautiful.

See photo, you may need to zoom in. This tree has had every branch fluffed and shaped, and there are HUGE gaps. The listing photos of the tree are obviously manipulated and it is false advertising. The wires that come out of the trunk of the tree are just the wire for 2/3’s of the branch, and only have branches on the last 1/3. Leaving the whole interior of the tree with no branches. This tree is not worth the money. At all. UPDATE tree is not 7’ it’s 6’6”, everything about this tree was falsely advertised.

Way better than I expected!!

It fluffed out great and all the hinges and lights worked perfectly! Easy to assemble and loved the sturdy legs. Though the end had unexpected glittery bits that left the floor with a much needed vacuuming after assemble, I would still repurchase this in a heartbeat.

This was a perfect white tree! Not even just for the great price, I was thoroughly impressed with the size and quality! Easy set up and the more time you spend fluffing and filling in gaps the more beautiful it will look. A great compliment to this room!
