GKI Bethlehem Lighting 7.5-Feet PE and PVC Tips Pre-Lit Hunter Christmas Tree with 850 Clear Mini Lights

This is a beautiful tree! Especially for the price! I read other reviews prior to purchasing one for our family and remember seeing that someone thought the branches weren't full enough. They most likely did not take the time to fluff out every branch because this tree fills in very well. Only one issue and that is that one of the light strings is faulty. (See photo).

Love this tree so much that I got two. Very easy to assemble, full and nice realism. These are not trees for small spaces, as the base is very full. Once opened get a tree bag, because you are not getting it back in the box. It does take time to fluff and arrange the branches

A beautiful tree that looks realistic and only once had very nice built in lights. I bought this last August for christmas 2020 and everything arrived in shipping fine and I was able to assemble and get the lights working just fine. It ran perfectly for the season however it did not do well being stored for 1 year I guess. Although it was unused for an entire year and carefully put away in storage, somehow when we went to set up the tree this year 75% of the tree's branches had a malfunction. I spent a frustrating week trying to troubleshoot, changing bad bulbs (which were about 60% of the entire 850 bulbs on the tree that had gone bad from sitting in storage), changing fuses in all the plugs etc. There are large sections where the entire branches are just not lighting up no matter what I do, no matter how many fuses or bulbs I change out. I was absolutely shocked considering this tree has only ever been put up once and only last year and we even went through the trouble of storing it in a nice place because it was just such a beautiful ( and what appeared to be good quality) tree. When I bought it last year it only cost around $130-160 so seeing how expensive they are trying to sell this for now ($500+) is just absolutely astonishing when you consider some like myself only ever get a single use out of it. That is less of a use than just buying a cheap tree from walmart which I've had before that lasted me literal years upon years without hardly ever having to change a bulb (nonetheless 75% of the entire tree). If you were wanting to totally waste your money go ahead and buy it. When the cheap lights stop working you can at least spend more money to get different lights on strings (and defeat the purpose of buying a pre-lit tree). It is a huge shame that I can't even get a refund or replacement for this now because it has been a year since I bought it. I really had hoped a tree like this and from such a company as Bethlehem lights would have lasted me at least a few years a good use. I guess I was wrong.

I would give this tree five stars but the lights. If one bulb is loose or whatever, that entire limb of the tree goes out. If I had to string lights on this tree I would still love it. It does take time to shape it, but with some patience it is beautiful.

It is gorgeous & so easy to assemble. Very heavy & sturdy! We love it!!!!!

Easy assembly, full beautiful tree!

I love this tree. Its just the style i wanted. It may take more than one day to decorate. If you’re a psycho like me and want EVERY branch separated, it literally took me 3 hours. Thats how full it is. But no one will notice if they are not all separated except for you. The time spent on it was worth it for me.

Tree looks nice, and is relatively simple to set up, but one string of lights was dead. The bulb tester they supply did not fit the bulbs on our tree and was a waste of 15 min while I tried to figure out what I was doing wrong (nothing). It was extremely difficult to find and replace broken bulb, but I did it by going and replacing unlit bulbs one by one until fixed. They have a pamphlet that has some nonsense about how if a bulb fails the rest of the string should stay lit, but they do not, unless somehow the failed bulb is a short so the string can string can still conduct current. Most of the time (like in our case) the bulb is an open and the entire string fails. There are six or so strings in parallel, so the whole tree does not go out, but there is a large dark section when a string fails.
