I bought a Balsam Hill tree and tree topper in October last year when they had a special offer on.
I was super excited about it. I have to admit though, I wasn’t wowed by it when we put it up at Christmas. Possibly because I got a slightly smaller one to keep in budget, though it still cost a lot. I quite missed my old tree, which was fuller (and a much cheaper brand).
It is a lovely tree though, no doubt, and you can see the quality even in terms of how it’s packaged. I will use it again this year.
I suppose what I’m saying is, unless you’re going to really push the boat out and get a big/very expensive one, you may be as well to spend your money on something else you really want
