Enjoy The Holiday Season With Our Top 3 Artificial Christmas Trees

‘Tis the Season

Who doesn’t love Christmas? The roaring fire, families coming together, beautifully wrapped gifts under a magical Christmas tree… then, you get a pine needle in your foot and have to vacuum up a whole pile of them daily.

So, an artificial tree is the solution; clean, cost effective and not as attractive to the family dog.  Artificial trees have moved on dramatically from the fake, spikey bright green ‘trees’ that used to be available.You remember the ones, right? Becoming more popular, about 80 percent of homes will opt for an artificial tree this year, compared to only 20 percent of Americans choosing a real, live tree.

But what do you look for in a tree that might be brought out every Christmas for years to come? There are so many options around, we thought we’d give you a helping hand by reviewing the best selling artificial trees in our usual honest and unbiased way.

Going down this route gives you lots of options. Are you looking for a traditional just-cut-from-the-farm tree, a snow swept tree, or a glamorous, bold metallic tree? There is a tree to fit every taste.

If you are aiming for the realistic look, select needles constructed from PVC or PE for a more lifelike effect. Fluff out the branches to check for fullness and shape and check the tips for any sharp points. Will they be strong enough to hold hanging decorations? And lights? Or will you look at pre-lit trees?

Whatever look you decide on, an artificial tree can be an investment, lasting many years, so despite the initial cost, it works out as a yearly saving, both financially and effort wise.

So which Christmas trees made our list?
