We earn from qualifying purchases through links on this page. How we make money.
Choose an artificial Christmas tree on Black Friday by measuring first. Take your ceiling height in feet or centimetres, leave room for the stand and a topper, then choose a full, slim or pencil shape for your floor space. Compare branch tips, how the sections fit together and the stand, and check the listing is new and complete.
Height and shape
Leave a gap between the top of the tree and the ceiling for a star or angel. Full trees suit larger living rooms. Slim and pencil trees fit corners, hallways and flats.
Branch tips
| Branch type | Look | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| PVC tips | Flat, feathery needles | Lighter and usually less expensive |
| PE tips | Moulded needles closer to a real tree | Often mixed with PVC for fullness |
| Flocked | White coating like snow | Can shed a little at setup |
Setup and storage
Hinged branches drop into place as you lift each section out. Hook-on branches attach one at a time, which takes longer. A metal stand is steadier than plastic for tall trees. Check the number of sections and the size of the box for storage.
