The trees started out a little less than I thought they would be. But they got better as the build progressed. They are really great and go well with Santanand his sleigh.
Very pleasant build. I built the large tree and used all extra ornaments on it. I added a string of mini lights and it looks really pretty. I am thinking of buying an extra set so I can have all three trees at the same time together.
i get the sense that they rushed this set out for christmas; instructions are not as straightforward as usual (not sure why they used a yellow outline color), bags not labeled, etc. i had to backtrack a bit because of this, and the end product (building the one “large” tree) is still unstable because of the rotating section that doesn’t lock in. seems a weird choice. it will still serve its purpose in lieu of having a real tree but it would have been nice to have something larger and extravagant; the final product is a bit underwhelming.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
