I am very satisfied after the first "Well" when unpacking!

Once the Christmas tree search before Christmas was unsatisfactory and expensive once again, I did after buying the topic "artificial Christmas tree" on the table. From my wife I earned a lot of negative prejudices and criticism. She tried to make me and the subject even among friends ludicrous and learned surprising here that in the round already has about 3/4 a "Plastic Tree", which was her never noticed (because let's be honest: Usually you enter the living room, takes a look at the tree, says something like "oh how nice" and sits down on the couch. No one comes to the idea of ​​taking the tree in detail under the microscope when he does not know that he is artificial) ,
Anyway, I got permission to convince my family. First visits in various hardware stores were sobering: either green lacquered iron tubes with needles thinner "shopping bags" film, yet not so cheap or really great, but they were already settled in the 200 euro range.
So I ended up at Amazon, because of the reviews. A few trees were based on the reviews in the immediate choice, then I opted for the model of Homefit that came Amazon typical fast. Because of the reviews I expected the worst when unpacking. Admittedly, made the 2-part tree (in the manual though was 3 parts, but no matter, the finished length agreed) not look like much. Under the derision of his wife and daughter, I began to turn and align the branches, while the sayings veräppelnden my wife gradually fell silent.
The tree is actually of better quality than the 60-euro-trees at the hardware store: The trunk is wrapped in brownish, the needles are made of firmer quality, particularly convincing, I found that the tips of branches are wrapped in brown thread, so that you really like right branches look. If you give yourself some trouble when aligning, you can hide the master and perfect if you no one says that's the wrong tree, which is also no knowledge (see above). A few real branches down to the stand will take care of the real pine - fine.
"Negative" I think really just to perfect pyramid shape, which could most likely arouse suspicion.
Criticism of my wife: If anything, I would have given the anticipated savings may be the same buy a 230-cm-tree.
Logically, the tree after alignment no longer fits so perfectly into the box, but I can live very well! So, buy!
Addendum after 1 Christmas: Only my father asked if this was an artificial tree, but was immediately but down a peg of my mother, because "you can see it, that's the real". As I said, the shape is almost too perfect ...
