National Tree Company Pre-Lit 'Feel Real' Artificial Full Downswept Christmas Tree, Green, Douglas Fir, Dual Color LED Lights, 7.5 feet

I did all kinds of research on all of the latest "artificial trees" and was totally amazed by how wonderful they really have become. My only regret was not opting for a 9'. The 7 1/2' comes in 3 parts and a base. Put it together by myself (5'0" 55 & disabiled) in about 1/2 hour with some figiting for a few days after. Normally a 14 year old could have done it in 15 min. Beautiful tree model (the "Downswept Douglas Fir Tree) as were many others. The "Feel-Reel" does make it real, it holds ornaments that a real tree couldn't hold, stays in place (but you could move the whole tree if needed without much hassle). I love white lights, my husband loves the multi-colored so we got a tree with both options which seems to add approx $120-$150 so I would suggest that you try to work out your differences, but we planned to keep this as long as possible so we went the whole way. The bottom 2 parts are hinged and just fall open and then you can arrange the smaller branches to your liking. Read the instructions, they are short and worth it. Turn the lights on before you seperate out the smaller, unhinged branches so you can arrange the lights evenly. I saw some for $5,000 and some for $50, this is perfect for us. I would suggest getting a storage bag to store it in. It comes down easily, the hinged branches just collapsed and the smaller branches you just kind of "squeeze" the smaller ones together. This has 750 lights, I believe, which was enough, although they had some with up to 2500 lights (that would be way, way too many). LED lights put out a brighter light, so you don't want your tree to be drowned out by lights. And the greatest part was not having to deal with spacing lights or putting them on at all!!! Pick out the type of tree you like. We always had real trees and lived in the Pacific NW. Lots of comments from everyone and we didn't even put as many ornaments as usual and no garland. The tree alone was just beautiful. I might have gone for one with some "snow" on it but it seemed to come off too easy and had a weird smell. One person pointed out that it didn't go around while in its stand but that is a designer overkill to me. This is a perfect substitute for a real tree with a lot of benefits and only two things missing...the smell and the going into the forests and picking your own out, but as you get older and/or the forests are too far away this is great! I suspect the prices will drop a bit next year. Amazon Prime had great prices and instead of only one type of tree with one size, they had a small selection that came from their own warehouse. It arrived in perfect condition 5 days before expected. I reserve 5 stars for absolutely spectacular items and ideas. Had this been the first year they had come out it would have been a "5". Keep extra bulbs and fuses and look at the warranty. Don't get one with less than 2 years, but don't expect one with a 10 year warranty either because people don't always take care of things and then blame it on the manufacturer. I owned one other "fake" tree 25 years ago in S. Calif. we only used it 2 years and gave it away. It was a nice tree but nothing like the new generation of artificial trees. I don't want to take it down!

I’ve always had a real tree… being a recent widow, I decided I didn’t want to deal with a real tree any longer. I did a lot of research and finally decided on this tree. It just arrived (three days before Christmas). My only regret is that I didn’t order sooner. Before I ordered I watched the company video on how to set it up and that is what sold me. It was so easy to put up. It does take some time to fluff all of the branches. I spent about an hour - then I stepped back and saw holes, so i fluffed some more. Then I took a picture and saw more holes, so I fluffed some more. The more you fluff the better it looks. In all I spent less time fluffing this tree than I would have spent picking out a live tree. It’s very realistic looking - there are two types of branches which, IMO, makes it look fuller and more realistic. There are tons of lights on the tree and you can set the lights to color, white, and numerous combinations of flashing, fading, steady etc. The video suggests fluffing the top section before putting it up - I would agree that would be easier, but does require two people - one to hold and one to fluff. I put it on and used a step ladder to fluff. There is a plug at the top for a tree topper. The cord is plenty long enough to reach my outlet without an extension cord. I ordered the 7 1/2 foot tree and it is much bigger than I expected - I absolutely LOVE this tree…..next year I will put it up early do I can enjoy it longer!!

I originally wanted to purchase a Balsam Hill 7.5 foot artificial Christmas tree but they were out of stock. We watched the videos on both trees and decided to try the National Tree Company 7.5 ft pre-lit tree. I love that you can choose the lighting. We received our tree on Friday and put it up just to make sure it everything was perfect with it. It is exactly what we wanted. It was easy to assemble, took about 90 minutes for my husband and I to fluff it and we are very happy with it. My other artificial Christmas tree is gorgeous and has lasted 25 years but unfortunately it’s starting to show its age. If this Christmas tree lasts that long, it will probably out live us since we are in our 70’s!

Very pretty, realistic tree; easy to assemble (fluffing the branches is going to be a pain no matter what kind of tree you get). I like the different lighting options & would have given this 5 stars if it had a remote control (or an app) to change the lights. That said, using the foot switch is easy enough.

I purchased this exact tree in 2015 and here we are 10 years later and it still is working great! It was the first artificial tree we ever bought, and I have no regrets other than maybe I should’ve gotten a taller one. Yes, it takes time to fluff it properly but if you do, it looks beautiful. I love how the lights have so many options especially the one changing from warm white to bright colored lights. My husband loves white lights but I love the bright colors, so we’re both happy! I will never buy an artificial tree except from this company.

Stunning! Easy to set up! Took me about 40 minutes to set up and fluff the entire tree. Second tree from National tree company and I would highly recommend.

Looks good simple to put up. Tree is full of lights and branches no bare spots Delivery person was awesome too!

Super

Very disappointed. I was excited to set up the tree but the lights are not working properly now that sits all decorated. I did plug them in initially and everything seemed fine. Now they won’t stay on. I had to add lights as I have family events and needed my tree for those. This was an expensive tree and expected better quality. Very disappointed

Pour fêter Noël
