Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
Mine is fake...but it looks so real. Its so much easier to maintain, no mess, no watering. We had a real tree one year and never again

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
Had real for 12 years and we decided to buy fake and I LOVE it. Much easier to put up and down, no fighting with lights and we will have it for many many years.

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
fake because with a kid and a dog is just safer and easier to maintain.

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
Fake. We bought a very realistic one in Fortunoff last year. Very realistic needles.
Re real trees, I am not a fan of chopping down a tree (a critter's home) just to get rid of it a month later. I also would be afraid of having some critter appear in my living room one day.
I also would be concerned in regards to pets to have a tree constantly dropping needles. I would worry about a fire hazard in addition. And I also hate the pine smell. (DId I give enough reasons, lol?)

Always fake - for environmental reasons.

100% Real! IMO, No comparison!
A little water ever night and a little extra vacuuming is so worth it!
I agree!

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
I always had real trees growing up but then last year after christmas I was in Fortunoff and they had a tree that looked jsut like a real tree (with pine-needle looking branches and not the green pipe cleaner looking ones) and it was completely reasonable so we got it and moved with it and this is the first year it's up. I love it so far! The lights were already on it which takes such a huge headache out of the process.
So far, the vote is fake for me!

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
Real all the way! I love the smell!
My mom switched to fake after I got married and I torture her about it. I just feel more in the spirit with a real tree. Totally absurb, I'm aware

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
Fake - that is all I ever had. Don't have to go out every year and look for the perfect tree. Put it up early and it won't die before Christmas

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
Artificial here! I love that I can have it up longer....
The mess & watering of a real tree doesn't bother me...probably because I never had one. Never wanted one. Oddly enough I love the look of most artificial trees more.

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
Real, although if it were up to me I might think about fake for the whole needles/lights aspect. But I do love the way they smell

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
Fake--I love the fact that it is prelit and we can put it up whenever we want and not have to worry about it drying out/watering etc. Our tree looks real, it was the best investment we made!!

Re: Those with Christmas trees...Real or Fake?
We went fake for the first time this year. In fact, so did my Dad. DH didn't want to deal witht he mess and watering it, so we found a great deal on a fakie and jumped on it. It's actually kind of nice knowing we'll just have to break it down and put it away for next year. Plus, it's up already! No waiting so it lasts through Xmas.
