Has anyone got one and would you recommend? There is a sale just now but still quite a bit of cash. Considering a prelit one.

We have the Grandview Fir (prelit) bought 5 years ago (on sale!). I absolutely love it. Our room is small so this is a perfect size, otherwise I'd go for a slightly fuller tree. But it is so beautiful, easy to assemble and the lights on it are lovely.

Does it give off enough light? That’s my concern as I do like a well lit tree! Our room
is quite small so thinking of a slim but tall tree - 6 or 7 foot.

For me, it definitely does. And I love that it's a warm light rather than a bright LED type light which I think is too white and don't like so much. Here's a pic of ours from a few years ago. It's a personal thing though, maybe you'd be better off buying from a shop where you can see them on display?

We have one from there, a pre lit one although not sure of the name. Had it about 6 years now and it's still going strong.

I have one, although not prelit. I'm afraid I can't remember the exact style but I love it. I used to always get a real tree, but just couldn't justify the expense every year so bought one in the sale.

I've got the pre-lit Fraser Fir and it's a thing of beauty! Sixth season and as good as new. Its lit very well but you could always add extra lights for preference. Once mines up I can't stop staring at it!
