Ten and a half pounds for a 6 ft tree is unusually light, and it comes from a slimmer 3 ft profile rather than thinner material - the 600 branch tips are still full enough to hide the pole once fanned. Flocked pine needles cover them in white for a snow-dusted finish that needs no ornaments to look finished. The frame hinges in 3 sections onto an 18-in metal stand. Non-flammable PVC is used throughout. For a bedroom, a landing or a small apartment living room, the narrower spread is what makes a full-height tree possible.
