Customer Review

'The Drummond is a beautiful tree full with the characteristic of brown veined branches for a vibrant effect.'
True, if you are not too close, it can be kept for genuine, the 'branch' is brownish and the first visible part looks quite real, the lower is not so visible part after building these typical plates fir imitations, as they knows of garlands. Which serve to fill view towards the trunk.
The tips of the visible outer firs are however very picksig like a normal tree, not soft like in a real Nordmann fir. The ends well, as if they had a dewdrop act that comes from the plastic section, but does not look cheap.
The structure is thus also a picksige but relatively easy affair. A denim jacket is very good here.

The tree consists of four parts, stand, each teilbezweigter base, midsection and top, in between individual branches are bent into shape.
The stand is with me, however, a little shaky, the must be inferior to paper, so that it is true. The trunk is also wrapped with plastic plates firs, so that could visually stand a Trees and one sees no metal skeleton, if you meet the decorated him and since then is the creative work, shaping the individual branches to a fir tree. The tree is fixed with 3 screws in the stand.

The branches on the trunk are similar folds out with a screen, or, fold the light by itself. This mount is made of metal and has a stable and durable at the bottom of these supports are then the individual branches plugged.
The individual fir heads are flexible through the wire construction flexible in all directions and you have every one of the 488 heads fir forms so that the metal skeleton is no longer visible, and the rest must do the decoration.
The whole is also alone and build the manual, which is none at all, I had not even read that had to unpack everything self-explanatory when. Only the forms with Christmas tree and in turn, I then found out alone, because he looked too stupid and I thought since missing the individual branches to fill. The photo here was let at least suspect, but that's really Photo Shop edited. The tree trunk is visible in Natura, as well as helping all not forms. Exclusive decorate, take construction and forms maybe 30min., The also the forms is easy.

Constructed, it is surprisingly a really nice and not cheap or gimmicky acting tree, which is straight and very dense, if you have taken the time to form. On closer inspection you can the metal skeleton of the branches on the trunk but always see there really must then Deko ago. But you can form with some sense of proportion so that it really looks like a naturally grown Christmas tree and not just as a false plastic tree. It is possible with a little effort.

Of course, nothing of real candles !!!
You could, but I would not be sure that the plastic of the branches can stand the heat.
Since the "instructions" in this respect nothing hergibt of information, I would advise against rather.

The height of 185 cm and 1 m width in the lower area is large and you should of course have room for it. But if the branches all inward bends to one side, it can even stand on the wall. And the 185cm be achieved only when you bolt upright the longest Tannenkopf at the top bends top, otherwise he just 177cm. The tree is just very flexible, so I want to see the time.

Conclusion:
We have always had a real tree and even if ecological nonsense, we have every year about 60 paid for a real tree, which was then discarded after 14 days.
I was also the view that plastic trees can not be beautiful, so we never looked for one.
Here I was, but certainly disabused. If one well shaped and decorated it has mind.

It is easy to assemble and take apart again. The shipping carton for storage is about 120x30x30cm large, even for one must, of course, over the year have storage space. I was really surprised, I would have never bought it because I could not trust the photo here, but up on the tops of the pine green, he looks exactly as far as the pine branches.
The effect is then in Natura different, he is not as dense as the Photo Shop have tried. So close you get him by not form back !!!
However, this is rip-off and leaves me 2 stars out of town!

But I like it still very good after I brought him intensively in shape and he will be as of December also set up this year. Edit After and if they had not tricked in the photo but I would give 4 stars, one star deduction is for the picksen, or not well-rounded needle tips.

Whether plastic or rather is really probably a matter of faith, but who is looking for a plastic tree, which is not bad advice here when it comes to price performance. There are also still od double. Triple as expensive trees, the pines have a greeting and really like the real act. This you can see it only if you go close (50cm) to it and look closely.

We did not really have a tree, with us was the only traditional decor of the mood. Hailed was somewhere else than at home.
But this tree you can already set up the whole Christmas season, because it is not so needles and actually is a good substitute and save us is decorating costs for the coming years, and yet we have our Christmas spirit.
