Any good suggestions for finding a really nice feel tree ? I looked at hobby lobby, awful trees, Home depot has plastic, returning TSV  tree from QVC, plastic. I am hoping to find 6 to 7 foot white lights or bare tree with a nice natural tree feel to branches. No plastic hard branches. Thanks.

Balsam Hill has advertisements on the Hallmark channels during their Christmas movies. I went to their website last year and bought a seven foot pre-lit tree. I liked the delivery, quality and overall appearance of our tree. It wasn't extremely heavy, which was important to me because we had to carry it to our basement storage room for the off season.

 

Edited to add: You said you don't like plastic, but that's pretty much what artificial trees are. Balsam Hill will send out sample branches, so on their highest quality trees, the feel is quite realistic.

Check Amazon and read the reviews I just bought a 6 1/2 foot "Amazon's Choice"  (hundreds of five star ratings). National Tree Co, $200.

Re: Help finding a Xmas tree

I found the Mr Christmas tree TSV on QVC this year in green very realistic. So much so I ordered the flocked one tonight. On another post I commented as I also bought a flocked from Bethlehem lights TSV yet read where another member found it unrealistic. I just purchased a new home after going thru a tough decade and am determined to give myself and my dog the best Christmas and I am delighted with the quality of the Mr Christmas tree

Do you have  Home Depot or similar?  We also have Lowes here. 

All of those stores have good items..

Not sure where the Lowes stores are.

Re: Help finding a Xmas tree

I tend to cover my tree with so many ornaments you don't know what the tree looks like under all of them. That lets me buy a nice cheap tree and splurge on ornaments. (This tree was a $90 tree from Walmart.) I may be adding the new Hallmark "Legend of Zelda Link " ornament this year in honor of the new Zelda game coming out in May.

Balsam Hill is the Cadillac if you will of Christmas Trees. While not cheap, they have sales occasionally. I got mine last year for half off I believe. It's unbelievable the difference in quality!!
