When you’ve got heavy decorating to do, this Carolina Pine from National Tree is down for the job. This tree is no lightweight—coming in at a mighty 59 pounds—but that means it’s strong and sturdy enough to hold all your trimmings. You don’t have to worry about sagging branches or heavy ornaments slipping off and crashing to the floor, this is a tree that’s meant to hold it all.

The tree measures 7.5-feet tall and is 59 inches in diameter. It’s pre-strung with 750 clear lights covering its 1,393 branch tips. It all comes together with metal hinges, and it’s both flame-resistant and non-allergenic. It’s also peppered with pinecones for a straight out-of-the-woods vibe. 

Sometimes it’s good to go back to the basics. While this simple and standard-sized tree may not be as ornate as the other options, it’s a dependable blank slate. Here’s why: the seven-and-a-half feet hinged tree comes with easy-to-fluff branches. These components are covered in 1,346 tips to make them look full-bodied and genuine. Plus, it contains the classic silhouette that looks timeless in just about any setting.

Beyond its look, buyers love how easy it is to assemble the three-piece tree. Several were skeptical to invest in an online artificial option, but once they put some effort into plumping out the branches, they were blown away by the quality and design of it. Consider it a great option to go with if you want a standard tree you can completely deck out for the holidays.

Just because space is limited doesn’t mean you can’t still put up a Christmas tree that will make a big, festive splash. Though it be little, this tree from Nearly Natural is mighty pretty. It stands just 3-feet high and 21 inches wide, so it can fit nicely in a small corner or even on a tabletop. It’s also a great tree to put in a kid’s bedroom when decorating for Christmas.

Best of all, it’s already decked out with lights—100 of them, to be specific—so you don’t have to worry about stringing them. Just plug it in and watch it glow. The lights are also designed so that if one goes out, the rest of them keeping on working—which is a huge relief if you’ve ever dealt with Christmas tree lights without that feature. The tree is made of more than 130 faux pine tips and is also peppered with pine cones for a rustic feel so realistic people might just mistake it for a real one. Customers say the tree is well made, easy to set up, and really adds Christmas spirit to their small space. 

Dreaming of a white Christmas? Now is your chance to ensure you've got some white on Christmas Day with this 8-foot crystal white artificial tree. With 1150 PVC tips you'll be sure to have a full tree. A heavy-duty metal stand ensures it stays upright and safe all December long, while the hinged branches make for easy set-up and storage. 

For an extra-stylized touch, hang one color of ornaments this year (perhaps pink or red) for a super trendy and fashion-forward tree you'll remember for years to come. 

If you don't have the space for a wide tree, consider buying a thin tree that has a smaller diameter. We love the 7-Foot Shelton Artificial Tree from Holiday Time for its elegant shape and pre-lit design. The 1.58-foot diameter ensures that this tree can fit in the smallest of living rooms. Moreover, the 300 clear lights that adorn the branches will make decorating much easier, and the top branches are strong enough to support a decorative tree topper (see our favorite tree toppers here). The included tree stand is an added benefit.

Over 1,000 reviews and a best seller label make this a standout product in the artificial tree category. Backed by an eye-catching design, and an even better price point, this six-foot stunner earns top marks from us, too.

The artificial pine features lusciously full branches—1000 tips in total—to create the look of a genuine tree. And the sturdy metal base helps keep it standing tall throughout the entire season. When the festivities are over, the tree’s hinged body easily disassembles into three pieces and can be placed in a Christmas tree bag for effortless storage. Measuring 72 x 55 x 6-inches, it’ll look great in any apartment, condo, or bedroom that’s in need of an option slightly smaller than a standard-sized tree. And for under $50, customers consider this tree a steal.
