The media could not be loaded. The photos with the red ribbon are from the first year I had the tree (2020) and the video is this year (2024). I absolutely love this tree!Everyone who comes over compliments me on how beautiful it is. It has real looking, strong outer branches and the inside are less real looking - I show the difference in the video. Folks on here complain about that in some of the reviews - this is actually a great feature because you can’t tell the inner ones are less real looking when it’s decorated AND they are bendable which is helpful for decorating - the real looking ones aren’t bendable wire but are strong to hold ornaments without drooping much.It’s super easy to set up. One of the things I look for in a artificial tree — that isn’t easy to find — is a good amount of space between branches to accommodate ornaments and allow for “layering” - this tree is perfect for that - you don’t end up with all the ornaments just laying on the outside - if you know what I mean.Cons // As some folks have said - it is heavy and doesn’t come with a carrier (luckily my husband is strong😊) - but seriously, I would have a tough time moving it around by myself so keep that in mind. After 5 years, some of the lights aren’t working but very few - I figure that’s just part of wear. Also, it sheds some when we get it out of storage but not too bad.I can say that after 5 Christmases of use, it’s still a great tree, it’s still beautiful, and I wouldn’t trade it for another. If / when I need to get another one, I will get the same one.

For the last 10 years I have ALWAYS had a live Christmas tree and said I’d NEVER get an artificial one. But with the cost of live Christmas trees now I decided I’d look into getting an artificial. It took me forever to find what I was looking for as I’m very particular about my Christmas tree, but I decided to take a chance on this one. I’m glad I did. It is perfect. It did take a while to fluff so be prepared for that, but it was pretty easy to do. It came in 3 sections which were labeled. That made it easy to put together. Each section was pretty light weight. It is very full which I was hoping for and has the perfect shape. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a tree that has a real look to it. I’m very impressed with it.

Don’t believe anyone who rates this below 5 stars. This is the artificial tree to get. I was so sad to not get a real tree this year but after our youngest left for college we decided we’d switch to artificial. I looked in multiple stores and spent way too long online looking at trees and reading reviews. Finally picked this 7.5 ft and couldn’t be happier. The shape is spectacular. It has a very real look. Super easy to assemble and lights are bright and plentiful. I promise get this one!!!!! Picture doesn’t do it justice. It’s perfect.

This tree is gorgeous....for the first year. It looks real and is stunning out of the box. The first year we truly enjoyed it, then it went downhill.Year two, half the lights went out. Thankfully we were able to send it in under warranty and get the section replaced. Then year three, more light out. Year four, 75% of the lights are out.It looks like I will be spending about $150 this year to restring the lights, as I don't want to spend another $500 to buy a new tree.Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful tree, but only for a limited time. Be prepared to re-string lights, or buy a new one soon. Since we had issues over multiple years (including a replacement from the company), it's proof that it's not a fluke. The lights will not last long. It's a beautiful tree, very realistic, but having to re-string lights a $500 tree in year three is ridiculous.I will never buy a tree from National Tree Company Again. I will spend a little more and get a Balsam Hill.Update: Dec. 2020.After spending hours cutting off the wires on the dead strands on the top half of the tree, I tried to fix the bottom half dead strands. Spending additional hours going bulb by bulb, it worked........for two weeks, now there's more strings out (*on the original strands). I'll need to spend another couple hours cutting the rest of the original strands off after Christmas. Solidifies this as an awful purchase. If you can buy without lights I would go with that option and buy your own lights. $500 for 3 years is really poor quality for the price.

I have never bought an artificial tree before, and I really thought that I never would, but my son's asthma and allergies have been with live trees each year so we decided to give this a try. Overall I am very happy with the purchase. It was easy to set up, looks very real, and holds ornaments well. There are two different types of bristles on this. One has a wooden type appearance to the stem, and the other just looks plastic. I am not quite sure why they don't all look like natural branches. My only other complaint is that the top of the tree (which happens to be the plastic type of needles and branch) is too flimsy to hold my star

Beautiful tree! I’ve never had an artificial tree and was truly impressed with the quality of this tree. It took about 2 hours to fluff the branches but was well worth it. So happy with this purchase.
