Popped open the box and said NOPE! Sealed it up and retuned it. Even then, I had flocking everywhere. Plus the needles are so obviously fake plastic that the realistic description is pure irony.

Perfect size tree! I needed a smaller tree that I could put up on a small table to keep our puppy away from the ornaments he’s obsessed with, and this tree is great. Easy set up and looks beautiful!

We love this little tree. It is the perfect size we needed and is so pretty decorated with the ornaments we have collected over the years. I highly recommend the tree.

It's a shame that such a lovely design of a tree is built with such poor quality. One would expect that something that costs several hundred dollars would be decently made. My tree arrived with lights not working in a large section at the bottom. Compare the photos, you can see that the lower foot of the tree in the back is unlit. In addition, several of the branches are broken at the trunk. I had to shim them with toothpicks.. The condition of the tree when sent should be in perfect working order, and someone should check to verify it. Instead, this tree is in a condition I would expect after a few year's use. I shudder to think how it will hold up in seasons to come. If it wasn't so close to the holiday, I would have returned it.

Returned. Flocking was too think and messy.
