to Christmas at the rate it's drying out. Feels like just yesterday I was dragging all of the Cripmas decorations out from under the house, now in a few short days I'll get to haul them back down there. Holiday season is so much fun.

so far they have lasted multiple years and you get your money back. Pro Tip, buy them on December 26th or 27th and leave it in the box until next Christmas. It will cost 50-70% off retail and be brand new next year.

the first w/LED lights. Has 2 sections, limbs hinge at the trunk. We keep it in the basement, standing up w/ a large bag over it. Carry it up in 2 pc, put them together, plug in lights, and ready to decorate. It was maybe $250 at Home Depot, can't recall, but more than the old fashion light bulb ones that they still stocked at that point. 2-3 lights have burned out in 5+ yrs.
It looks pretty decent when decorated.

If you have to make anyone else happy 2. Alone still 2. Put it up. I am buying a tree tomorrow for me and my 2 dogs and whoever visits. They burn well later anyway. The best part imo.
