Living in a small apartment, I’ve never had room for a full Christmas tree — but the search is on now that I’m moving into a larger space. Shopping is my full-time job, so everything I buy is a result of careful consideration and price comparison, and my first-ever Christmas tree purchase is no exception.
I’m looking for a tree that’s easy to set up, pre-lit, convenient to store, sturdy enough to last for years to come, and of course, budget-friendly. Luckily, I found the perfect option at Amazon: I’m buying the National Tree Company Slim Pre-Lit Christmas Tree, which is on sale for $68 — its lowest price in 30 days.
National Tree Company Slim Pre-Lit Christmas Tree
The 6.5-foot Kingswood Fir pencil tree saves valuable floor space while still allowing plenty of room for ornaments, thanks to its slender design, which measures 28 inches in diameter. With hundreds of life-like branches, it offers the full look of a natural tree without the pesky shedding of needles or potential fire hazards.
When you’re ready to put up your tree for the holiday season, the brand recommends setting aside 45 to 60 minutes to properly fluff the branches for the most realistic outcome. Aside from time spent fluffing, hinged branches and a sturdy tree stand make set-up a breeze.
And there’s no need to worry about stringing your own lights, because this tree comes pre-lit with 250 white lights. Plus, the bulbs operate independent of one another, so if one falters the remaining lights will continue to shine bright.
After Christmas, breaking the tree down is as easy as setting it up. I don’t have ample storage, an attic, or a garage, so I appreciate that the branches fold back into the base of the tree for space-saving and convenient storage. And it weighs just 6 pounds, so I’ll have no problem pulling it down from the top of my closet next year.
Nearly 2,000 shoppers have given this tree a perfect rating, and one shopper raved that it’s “nice and full” with “just the right amount of lights,” adding that it’s “simple to put together.”
I’ll be joining the 7,000+ shoppers who have purchased this Christmas tree in the past month and taking advantage of Amazon’s current bonus offer. Set a timer for your tree lights with an Amazon smart plug and turn up the Christmas music while decorating with an Echo Pop speaker, both of which are included for free when you add this tree to cart.
This deal won’t last long, so snap up this National Tree Company Christmas tree for 60 percent off now, then keep scrolling to shop more Christmas decor deals.
