I have purchased (and returned) so many trees now I lost count! They were either crooked, or all the needles would fall, or the lights didn't work, or they smelled bad, etc. etc. etc. I decided to take a chance on this co. (since in past was going thru Amazon/Walmart/Wayfair/Target etc., all of which turned out to be trash....even tho my limit was $150 for that I would expect a DECENT 5-6ft tree without issues, but no). So this was the last time I was going to make an attempt at shopping for one over internet, and it turned out to be just PERFECT! Easy setup, without lights (since had problems with other trees, I decided I'd rather buy my own lights), and hardly any shedding! This tree doesn't need alot of finessing because it is made to spread out in 'levels' so you can have ornaments actually 'hang' off the branches instead of having them sit ON branches because there is no room. This tree will REALLY display my expensive ornaments the way they SHOULD actually 'hang' down. I'm going to LOVE decorating this tree, and it's quality will let me enjoy it for years to come. TERRIFIC PURCHASE and the co. shipped SUPER EARLY (many days ahead of expected date stated). Problem free! THank you for being one of the few companies left out there who isn't just into 'cutting corners' by creating crappy trees but charging the moon for them. Nice to know there are still a few decent folks out there! A++
