6.5 ft Unlit Dunhill Fir Full Artificial Christmas Tree, 1,838 Tips, Includes Stand, Green

Nice full tree, easy to put up. First time I've ever had an artificial tree and I was very happy with this. Nice and full, realistic looking

If you’re a first time artificial tree buyer- this review is for you. I grew up with real trees my whole life but since getting pets, I’m wary of them drinking the water in the base, so I opted for artificial. I did lots of research. I originally wanted one from King of Christmas or Balsam Hill but could not stomach the price. (even if the tree lasts 10-15 years, it’s still too much money, IMO) I found National Tree’s website and liked the price and the good reviews. At the last minute, I checked Amazon to compare prices, and Amazon was a decent bit cheaper. All in all, I’d say it looks pretty realistic. I was expecting the worst and was pleasantly surprised. However, fluffing was an ordeal. Set aside about 2 hours if doing it by yourself. I think 3 or 4 rows of limbs have actual clusters of branches. Each cluster on each row has 3 separate branches. Make sure you bend them off to the side and then fluff them. I was afraid I was going to break the branch, but realized that’s how you’re supposed to do it. Doing this will help fill the holes. How to fluff? Separate all branches like a star or a fan. Almost none of my branches are facing straight. And don’t forget the little ones next to the column! They will help conceal bare spots. Make sure all branches are separated from one another, none should be touching. You get to make the tree how you want it to look, so have fun with it. If none of this helps, google how to fluff a tree. There are lots of videos, tips and tricks out there. Additional thoughts: You will lose a lot of needles. This is inevitable. I am assuming this will only happen the first time since it basically started compact in the box. I’ll have to see how it fares next year. Wear gloves. I laughed when I saw every person in every video doing this and I regret it. Branches are pretty stabby. And when you’re separating lots of them, your hands and arms will inevitably take a beating. Wear pants too. I didn’t. In the end, I don’t agree with any of the negative reviews about bare spots. If you fluff your tree correctly, it will be fine. I had to do two or three rounds of fluffing since it’s hard to tell when you’re in the tree moving things around (and I will probably do it once or twice more once I get everything on the tree). Granted, it’s not perfect and not the fluffiest thing you’ve ever seen (at least without paying a small fortune), but let’s be real- even a real tree isn’t. Once you have the lights up (if yours didn’t come pre-lit) and put all the ornaments on, you won’t notice it.

Absolutely wonderful tree. Very realistic and after many hours of fluffing, it looks beautiful. I managed to score a 7.5’ one that was used- like new for about half of the price ~$180. I highly recommend to keep an eye out for those deals if you’re on a budget or just want to save a bit. I’m not well versed in Christmas trees, nor rich enough to know the differences, but I do think that the quality equates the price. The tree is a realistic green, fresh, and after shaping- super fluffy. It is big in width, which is exactly what I wanted. It didn’t shed at all either! This has held up wonderfully, and I am very happy to have got the price that I did. But, if you’re willing to splurge, I think it’s worth it. I had done tons of comparing before making my purchase, and this one is by far the best I’ve had.

The tree is large, wide, and full once it’s completely fluffed, but be prepared to invest some time getting it there. It took me about 2.5 hours to fluff properly, and I definitely recommend wearing gloves—the branches can be a bit rough on the hands. Even after full fluffing, there were a few noticeable gaps that didn’t fill in as well as I hoped, but they’re easy enough to disguise with ornaments and decor. I also noticed some manufacturing remnants like small pieces of multicolored plastic tubing and a material similar to tough fiberglass insulation on a few branches. But they were easy to trim off with scissors. Despite those minor issues, the tree looks nice once set up, and overall, I’m happy with the purchase.

After checking out all the after holiday sales, we found a type of tree we liked and then found this on Amazon. Our old tree (from 1988) was losing more needles than it was keeping and it was time to put it to rest. To our amazement, neither the box nor our floor had any needles from our new National Tree. (see picture attached.) It took hubby about 2 hours to assemble (went very quickly) and fluff (the bulk of the time) the National. It's very full, very life-like and we are very pleased with the quality (see side by side picture). It does ship in from Canada but it arrived on time without incident. Highly recommend this tree, just know going in that it will take a lot of time to fluff the branches but it's well worth the effort!

This tree is beautiful and so full. The branches fluff nicely, it’s huge, and it only comes in 3 pieces! So, it’s not a hassle at all to put up and take down. The branches are all already attached and not removable. They just fold upwards for storage or out for display. Very convenient compared to our old Christmas tree and much more sturdy. It doesn’t come with lights which is perfect, because the lights on pre-lit trees often seem to have trouble. This tree is beautiful, full, and easy to display or take down to put in storage. I recommend.

Very nice quality, good shape and colour. Fully recommended!

Je suis satisfaite du produit. Il correspond parfaitement aux spécifications et la livraison est arrivée avant la date prévue. Un excellent achat.

He tenido otro árbol de navidad de esta marca y nos ha durado muchos años; es muy realista, fácil de armar y recoger. Muy buena calidad.

Excelente Pino de navidad, en verdad es muuy frondoso, fácil de armar y de buena altura (2.1m) Cuando armamos el árbol no tiro hojas por lo que se ve que es resistente , definitivamente fue una muy buena compra.

Very impressed with this tree. I got it on sale which makes it even better. Easy to set up, took about an hour with fluffing. Once fluffed it filled in beautifully. One feature I really like is the centre poll is also wrapped in the faux needles which adds to the appearance of fullness. It resembles a real tree well. Very happy customer. If you’re thinking about getting this tree, do it. You won’t be disappointed
