From the company that has decorated famous Christmas settings like Chicago's State Street and Dollywood comes professional-grade holiday trimmings to deck the halls of your home. GKI/Bethlehem Lighting's 7-1/2-foot Glacier tree faithfully reproduces the lush fullness of a freshly cut evergreen with 1,280 tips of rounded mixed foliage, a generous sprinkling of removable pinecones, and a light covering of icy frost. Offering an ideal conical shape with enough variation to still look organic, the tree can be viewed equally well from every side to showcase all the favorite family ornaments and garland. It also comes pre-strung with 700 clear and white frosted lights nestled into the branch layers. Using an individual lock-in method, each bulb stays firmly in place and operates independently of the others so one burnout won't cast the whole tree into un-festive (and frustrating!) darkness. Fire-retardant, fade-proof, and crush-resistant, the tree stands securely on a metal stand and features heavy-duty wire branch construction so it looks crisp and perfect all season long. When it's time to pack away, the included carton stores this showpiece safely without damage to needles. The tree measures 66 inches in diameter and comes with a 10-year limited warranty. --Kara Karll

 Great tree...but VERY heavy! October 24, 2008

I love this tree. It's so beautiful and realistic looking. The white frosting is not tacky at all, the pine cones completes the tree and makes it so much more realistic. The branches do hang low to the ground, but that will make it all the more fun for my kids to have to work to get to their gifts. Also, I think maybe you could manipulate the branches so they don't hang quite so low.
The only complaint is that the tree is SO HEAVY! My husband is currently deployed and there is NO WAY I can get it up to the attic by myself. I could probably get it down to the basement, but then the drudgery of pushing this heavy thing back up the stairs come time to put it up is daunting. Even putting the tree up alone is a little challenging and I'm no weakling.
I imagine the weight makes it more sturdy and durable, so I accept it, but it does make it difficult to store in an attic or to assemble alone. If not for the weight, I would rate this product a 5.

I bought this tree with the thought that we'd put we'd put it up next year (our other artificial tree was on its last legs). Well, this morning, Christmas, of course, 2 of those legs broke and crashbam! the elderly tree went horizontal. Once we cleaned up THAT little adventure, we couldn't resist putting up this new tree. It is LOVELY. All the lights worked just fine and it's incredibly easy to assemble. We did not find the frosting to be too much, and the pine cones are a really nice touch. I see this tree is currently unavailable. Hopefully it will be back in stock because it is a wonderful buy for the cost and looks terrific.
Great Tree! December 12, 2007

My mother and I toured all the usual shops, looking for a pre-lit tree: Home Depot, Sears, Target, etc. Nothing really caught our fancy. Then in desperation, we came across this tree when searching the web, and on the strength of the other reviews, we ordered it.
We were very pleased with it when we unpacked it and plugged it in. The flocking is a light, attractive dusting. The two kinds of white lights -- frosted and clear -- really light the tree up. I must admit that there is a darkish patch or two, but with a little judicious maneuvering, the patches can be turned around to the back side where no one can see them anyway.
The tree is heavy, but the stand is very secure, the branches look full and sturdy. Compared to all the cheap junk we saw at other stores, this is head and shoulders above them. Perhaps the only downside is that, as someone else said in a review, the branches start low to the ground so packing presents underneath isn't going to be easy.
However, with super-fast delivery (7 pm on the night before Thanksgiving) and easy-peezy assembly, I really think you can't go wrong with this product.
Very Happy With Mine - Great Tree for Price November 23, 2007

I was able to get this tree on sale just after Christmas last year, and have just put it up for the first time. I am very happy with the tree. It has a very sturdy heavy weight construction, it was easy to assemble (though shaping the branches took quite a while - it is a very full tree with lots of branches), and the pre-lit lights nicely spaced and working fine. In the box besides the tree were a replacement lights/fuses kit, a light string tester, and a power strip. Though I don't think it would be worth the $399 list price, I am very happy with it for the price I paid. I have received nothing but compliments on it from everyone who saw it over the Thanksgiving holiday. It is a frosted tree, as others have mentioned, and has attached pinecones. I personally like this, it may seem like too much when you first assemble it, but when decorated this just gives it a little extra something and I didn't feel it was over done. I think the majority of people would be happy with this tree.
