I scrimped and saved to buy a nicer tree this year and I wanted a lightly "frosted" tree specifically. I chose this one, however, we didn't realize until well after it was decorated that it had no evidence of that 'frost', NONE whatsoever---unless you consider slightly lighter green plastic needles as 'frost'.
I didn't expect it to be as full as pictured, so I wasn't too surprised to see that it indeed was not. I have a lot of ornaments, so some of those 'gaps' work well. The top portion fit quite loosely and spun around rather haphazardly till my son put duct tape on the end of the pole so that it would fit together better. I thought for the price we paid, this should definitely not have been the case. The branch tips do not support the more weighty ornaments at all, so it's a bit of a challenge to find the right branch for those types of ornaments.
I am disappointed with this tree in many respects and I'm not in love with it. While it IS prettier than our old tree, it's not quite what I thought we were getting. I wouldn't recommend this tree until they make sure that top portion won't topple off and that 'frost' needs to actually exist.
