51" tall... that's 4'3" -- pretty darn short for $254.
I got a prelit 12' (144") tree at walmart.com for $299 and it looks great!

The description is wrong. Just went to the link and it's 51'' WIDE (not tall). It's actually 7.5' tall.

It would be cheaper to get a bunch of jerky and decorate it.

Regardless of the height, that is an expensive tree.

this doesn't seem like a great deal to me. if you live near IKEA you can go get a REAL 9' tree for $20, plus they give you a $20 off $100 coupon, making it practically free if you use the coupon. I got mine yesterday and it is a beaut.

Your all on the bad list so it doesn't matter how big your tree is anyway. Like Santa's gonna look at and say "WOW, a 275 dollar tree, this kid needs more than other kids with cheaper trees. As the puppy for the kids house across the street takes a dump on your carpet before towering up the chimney laughing all the way to the slay.

I saw a real tree at Kroger for $39. Or free after axe rebate in the woods.

#15, if this is a synthoid tree, Cobra may be behind it. $254 is okay for a synthoid tree, but my synthoid parents melting in front of me was fairly traumatic.

You have to be careful if you have young kids with these fake trees as sometimes they have chemicals that can be toxic to kids if they chew on the needles. Although many real trees have chemicals sprayed on them anyways to help them last longer.
