Medium Palisades with Instant Power Pole Technology 7.5ft with 600 Clear Lights

The tree is way thinner than the tree in the photo. No amount of fluffing could change it, plus the stems are fairly stiff, so I am not sure they could be moved around all that much anyway. Also, the photo shows a tree with a brown wrapped pole, at least at the very bottom. The pole of my tree is bare, and reflects light, and is especially noticeable since the tree is not full. It is a shame, as the design of the tree is very nice and fairly realistic otherwise. I am probably going to repackage it and return it. Very disappointing.

I am soooo glad that we did not pay anywhere near full price for this tree. It is not a $500 tree. It is better looking than those that we saw for more money in the stores but not as good as our 20 year old, broken tree. The best part about it is the metal, hinged construction of the tree. It will not wear out like my last tree. I hate to sound like an "old timer" but "They sure don't make them like they used to." It does have two different kinds of branches adding to the "real" look of the tree. Some will hold the weight of my ornaments and some will not. I am concerned that most of the branches on the ends are of a heavy duty plastic material that will melt in our Texas attic. It says to store in a cool, dry place. I have to find a storage place inside my home so it does not melt. Pre-lit seems to mean that they took the trouble of wrapping the lights around the circumference of the tree for you in such a way that you have long sections of cord showing between the bottom branches. The tree is not full enough to hide the cords. You can even see where strings of lights are plugged together in the middle of the tree. The center pole/trunk is glossy and reflects the lights making it really noticeable. I put lights on each branch with the cord between each branch at the trunk of the tree so that I did not have to try to hide the cords with ornaments. Maybe fluffing the branches will make a difference when I set it up next year. With many branches not holding the weight of my ornaments, next years decorating will drive me crazy. We needed a new tree so this will have to do. If I had paid full price for it, or even 50% for it, I would be sending it back. I might have liked this tree better unlit.

This is a beautiful tree. One of the nicest artificial trees I've ever seen. The box came this morning and it literally took longer to open the box and remove the packaging than it took to put the tree together. The lights all worked and are spaced perfectly.The branches are hinged so the tree can be stored easily without damaging it. The outside branches and needles are very life like. The inner ones are cheaper, but that's ok because they are more of a filler than anything. These can be "fluffed" and adjusted to give the tree a fuller look and also to hide the interior pole. This is my first artificial tree, so I'm not sure if this is normal, but my hands got somewhat scratched up while setting up the tree and adjusting the branches. I suggest wearing gloves while doing this.Overall, I would say the tree is awesome. I'm sure we will use it for years. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the description didn't give a diameter size and the photo makes the tree look much wider than it actually is. I thought at first they accidentally sent me the slim version instead of the medium. The diameter is about 50". But, it's a lot taller than it looks in the photo. I think it's a different tree all together. Regardless, it's still beautiful and I highly recommend this tree!

Just as described...snap it together & decorate. No fluffing...what a beautiful tree! Makes decorating so much easier. Can't wait for next year!

The tree is just as I expected. Ir is on the heavy side and requires some patience to shape it. It looks good out of the box but I'm fussy. The medium width is wonderful. Even my husband was impressed with the tree with just the lights it comes with. We added colored lights to the tree and the combination takes your breath away. I needed a very special tree this year and this tree measures up. Only 4 stars because I needed help to put the tree together and the difficulty with separating the tips. The tree is worth the price and I would recommend it to friends. Thanks Amazon for a great product and fabulous delivery.

Fluffed and loaded with ornaments, the tree looks good. The build of the joints and light connections are very sturdy and should give us years of use. Our only complaint is that it seems a tad thin for the money.

My last tree was very wide and full and I loved this. This tree isn't as wide and when I put it together, I had a bit of buyer's remorse. Then I decorated it. I love how there is room for my bigger ornaments to really hang. Everyone agreed it was beautiful.I have a storage bag with integrated stand from Grandin Road. Since part of the integrated electrical system is in the stand , we had to reconfigure it a bit. My husband made it work and it is perfect. It fits easily in my storage bag without needing three people to fight with it.HIghly recommend!

Just four sections: the base which you spread open and insert the triangular screws; the bottom which you slide on the post in the base and twist until it clicks; the middle and top each with the same operation and the tree is together and fully lit. It couldn't be easier. The tree is backlit here in the house so its fullness around the middle isn't quite what the illustration shows, but it is beautifully shaped and perfect for the space. By the time the rest of the decorations are on, it will be lovely. Great buy.
