we purchased a 7.5’ tall tree. Received it timely. Put it up last Christmas ,only to find that section #2 lights were completely out. We called and the contact person was very nice and said they would replace the section - IN THE SUMMERTIME, In the meantime, they sent us a LONG string of lights for us to put on the tree. there were too many, so we had to go out and buy several shorter strings. In August, we received the new replacement of section #2. we put the tree up last Sunday and low and behold, half of the second new string did not work, and, part of the third section was out! This has been such a pain in the neck. I would NOT recommend anyone buying this tree. For the very expensive price, It is NOT worth the aggregation! a bunch of lights
