What is the best Christmas tree brand (so far) offered on QVC?

Best artifical/lifelike Christmas tree is Balsam Hill, though not sold on QVC.  Another excellent one is Hallmark artifical trees, which was sold on QVC about 3 or 4 years ago but not sold on QVC now.  Both can still be purchased from their own websites by Googling them.

The highest rated Christmas tree manufacturer is Vickerman.  See their catalog online; although, only retailers can buy directly.  QVC used to sell them, but haven't seen any recently.  Could be they are expensive.  I have some and can say they are life like, the most realistic I have seen.  Gorgeous.  

 

You can choose a style you like from their catalog, then search on the internet for the lowest price.  The best time to buy a tree is after Christmas when they go on sale.  

 

Another good one is Balsam Hill.  

 

Didn't answer your question because I would only buy Vickerman or Balsam Hill.

@Carolyn57 Last year I purchased my first Christmas tree from QVC. It's a VPH 7' slim tree.  Post fluffing and decorating, it was beautiful.  And, reviewers mostly seem to share my sentiments.  I'm looking forward to setting it up again.  So, if you need a tree that won't take up a lot of real estate, but is still striking, you might like this one. It's very reasonably priced, as well.

I would not buy a Christmas tree from QVC. The Bethlehem Lights brand, which was really the best for years, has plummeted in quality this season with respect to the electronic functioning of their products. Santa’s Best, the other tree company on QVC, has always had a terrible reputation for customer service. Balsam Hill is your best bet. Even QVC host, Shawn Killinger, did a home video featuring this brand which isn’t offered on QVC.

@MaryLamb Yes, people do rave about Balsam Hill trees. I've never seen one in person, but they're described as being the most realistic available.

 

I'd suspect this is true, since they're heavily advertised on the Hallmark channel and used on their holiday movie sets.  Hallmark knows how to do Xmas and doesn't settle for second best.  

 

Would love to hear from those who may have had them regarding how well they hold up, as they are higher end and quite expensive.

I purchased a Hallmark flocked tree from QVC a few years ago. It is lovely. This was my 1st artificial tree as I had always had real trees. i am extremely satisfied with my Hallmark tree.

My best tree was a Martha Stewart 7.5 with all the same bells and whistles as Bethlehem Lights, reasonably priced and I got it at Home Depot....

 

Since the trees are pricey, I suggest you Google "Balsam Hill Christmas Trees" and read good and bad reviews of Balsam Hill there are both out there.........

@MaryLamb@BlueFinch we’ve had a 7 foot Balsam Hill pre-lit tree for 4 years. They look lifelike, but the lights on our tree have died. The year we got it, everything looked great. The next year, one small section of the lights wouldn’t work, so we hid the dark spots with ornaments. The following year a larger section of the lights went out. Last year only one section of the lights worked, so we had to buy 3 strands of lights for our pre-lit tree. Other than the lighting problem, the tree has held up very well.
