To think that THIS is not a Christmas tree?

Absolutely hating this trend. It just doesn’t give me that warm, fuzzy festive feeling at all. My friend has a similar tree and I know this makes me sad & pathetic but for some reason it’s really grating on me 😆 AIBU?

It looks like it was stolen from a park.

It would be great as a SECOND tree in the house. If you had an enormous house and possibly a butler.

I love that tree! If I was single, and lived in an uncluttered house, free of toys. I would have that tree and be very happy.

I like it as a Christmas decoration but seeing the presents under there makes me sad!!!

It's pretty enough,but it isn't a Christmas tree.

Lovely as a second tree or used as a decoration but as the only "tree", no it doesn't work for me.

Its pretty, but I'd have ti as a 'sec on tree' in a hallway or such like. You need a proper tree with tinsel and other tacky shit lights and a star/angel to feel festive.

I hate artificial trees! But when I lived alone and couldn’t afford a real one I decided a tree that didn’t loom real was best choice so on that baisis you are a bit unreasonable

I think they are really lovely, but like others as a decoration/2nd tree not as the main tree.

I concur it’s great as a second tree. And looks lovely.

It looks like they forgot to take down last year's tree. I bet people with tree like that also have things like baked salmon for Christmas lunch.

Christmas trees by their nature are evergreens- that's the whole point. Even if they are artificial they should still be a fir or pine. It's symbolic.

I love it! But definitely in addition to a 'proper' tree

My friends has a few baubles and about 3 presents underneath. It’s just depressing in appearance. It wouldn’t bother me as a decoration, but as the main tree it’s just awful. Really flattens my Xmas spirit 😂

Have it as a second tree by all means, but please don't insult it by putting gifts underneath. It looks like they've forgotten to tidy up!
