Thank you for doing this video! Very sweet of you to review all the branches for us before we make a purchase. I’m still trying to decide against the Vermont white spruce or the balsam Hill balsam fur?

Wild it’s Nov 10th and these are absolutely GONE lol there are absolutely none to be found anywhere in any Home Depot for 100 miles and I’m talking the more common full-size 7.5 let alone the even more rare and exclusive 7.5 slim tree that I haven’t seen anywhere in person at any point at any time ever. That’s the big problem with these is you cannot find them anywhere so it’s fine and dandy if you’d like to watch a review and purchase one, but it’s no good if you can’t find them as early as November 10. I think that’s rather ridiculous. I mean by December sure, then you’ve probably missed the boat but a week or so after Halloween and they’re already all totally gone? Smh that’s baffling to me.

Problem with these are they’re 7.5 ft. minimum. If you live in a 8 ft ceiling home, it won’t really work
@MorbidMattski13 күн бұрын
Well most homes have 8 foot ceilings and 7.5 trees will work just fine tbh. My house is 8’ and all my trees are always about 7.5’ That’s including the stand and the very very tip of the tree that’s 7.5 feet so you will still have 6 inches of space above the very very tip of the tree. Likely your star or angel will not sit on the very tip. If you have a huge topper and I mean huge, you might have to fold the tip, but these 7.5 foot trees are designed to be put up in homes with 8 foot ceilings, which is what most people have so I wouldn’t worry if you have an 8’ ceiling you should be fine 👍

Thanks for your review! I was looking At Balsam Hill but I think I will be taking a trip to Home depot to check this tree out. Can't wait to see the final look of your tree! Happy Holidays

I brought this tree but am thinking I may actually return it. Issue I have is that the multi color lights don't have the "twinkle" feature that the white lights do. I hate that because sometimes I like to switch it up. Also the multi color lights are more "pastel" colors than true traditional colors. Just thought that everyone should be aware of that. For some, it's not a deal breaker. It is a beautifully shaped tree and very full.

Thanks for posting! I really agree with you on liking a Matte finish better. I'm looking for a 12' tree, so I'm down to the Frazer or Blue Spruce. You mentioned the branches are different on the Flip Blue Spruce vs. Standard Blue Spruce. Are the needles the same?

I've watched multiple videos of this tree and no one talks about fluffing the tree. Do you have to touch each individual branch to adjust or are they pre-shaped and fixed in position? Past artificial trees I've had took 10 minutes to setup and at least an hour to fluff the branches if you had the patience. What is the reality with this tree?
@KristyU217820 күн бұрын
@arbearusn i really didn't fluff the branches. Once the arms of the branches moved down the pieces on the branch were shaped already. There wasn't much maneuvering at all which was a surprise. Im sorry i didn't video me opening them. This is the easiest tree I've ever had. Which makes the whole experience of putting it up effortless.

How does the dimmer button work? Does it just dim the lights on whatever setting you choose? And does it remember that dimmed level once it turns off and back on?
@KristyU217820 күн бұрын
@chrisimes478 yes. You choose the setting you like and then it has 3 different light brightness modes. Bright, medium, low. I have no idea if it stays on that but i would say no. I had turned the lights off and put it back on and it was not on the same setting so i think you need to change it each time you turn the tree on from what i recall. It's back in the box waiting for Thanksgiving weekend to be set up but if this changes I'll update my answer
@chrisimes47819 күн бұрын
@ Thank you for the reply … I did end up buying the tree. It’s 3 settings (normal bright, medium, low) and if I set the tree to any light setting and any of the 3 brightness settings when you turn off then on it remembers all settings, even the brightness setting if it was on low or medium.

Thank you so much for this review. It was so helpful! I’m thinking of buying one myself:) wondering if there’s anyway you could do something to show us the difference when using the dimmer function? that’s what I’m really interested in- my current tree is beautiful but so bright!
@KristyU2178Ай бұрын
@Marina-jb3fb I totally forgot to show the dimmer function of the lights. I'm so sorry about that. I put the tree away in the box for now. It will go back up around Thanksgiving. I did try it out and it dims 2 shades lower than what you see. So there's a medium brightness and then a low but both are beautiful and perfect. I would highly recommend this tree from all the features it has and the realism it depicts.
