6 FT Pre-Lit White Birch Twig Tree with 96 Warm White LEDs

Six feet on an 8 inch base

Six feet of height standing on a square base eight inches a side. That is a remarkable ratio: a tree as tall as a person taking about as much floor as a dinner plate, which is the whole argument for a twig tree over a fir in a small room.

96 bulbs, day and night

The manufacturer's own day and night pairing is the most useful image on the listing. Unlit it is a sculptural white tree; lit, the 96 warm white bulbs follow the twigs rather than hanging off them, so the light traces the branch structure.

Bend it, dress it, keep it up

Every branch bends and holds, so the shape is yours to set. The branches carry lightweight ornaments, and a bare white tree does not read as specifically Christmas, which is why the maker photographs it decorated for other seasons as well.

Better in a group

One birch is quiet. Two or three at different heights reads as a small stand of trees, which is how they are almost always photographed and how they work best in a room. This is the tallest of three sizes in the range.

The tallest of three heights in this range, on an 8 inch square base.

Wound along the twigs so the light follows the branch shape.

Every branch bends and holds, so you shape the tree yourself.

Light enough to lift and reposition with one hand.

A UL certified adaptor steps 120V down to 12V at the tree.

Enough reach to place the tree away from the outlet it runs from.

Six feet of presence on an eight inch base is the best height to footprint ratio in the whole category. It fits where nothing else this tall would, and at 3.7 lb it moves easily if you change your mind.

Bare white branches with warm light read as winter rather than as Christmas, so it can go up in November and stay through January without looking left over.

What we stand behind

• The baubles, gifts and figures in the styled photographs are not included.
• The 6 ft height, 8 inch square base, 3.7 lb weight, 12V output and 6 ft cord are the manufacturer's published figures for this size, and the 96 LED count is printed on this SKU's own panel.
• The manufacturer lists this as an indoor decoration, but photographs it outside a front door in snow. We describe it as indoor, because that is what the written specification says. Do not assume it is weatherproof.
• Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150. 14 day returns, unused and in the original packaging.

Can I use it outdoors?

The manufacturer lists it as an ideal indoor decoration and publishes no ingress rating, so we would not. One of its own photographs shows the tree in snow beside a front door, which is confusing, but a marketing photograph is not a weather rating. Treat it as indoor.

Why does the description say 48 lights?

The written paragraphs are shared across the 4 ft, 5 ft and 6 ft versions and quote the 4 ft figure of 48. This SKU's own image panel is headed 6FT Pre-lit Birch Tree, 96 LED Lights, and 96 is the figure we publish.

How bright is it?

Gentle rather than strong. Ninety-six bulbs spread over six feet of twigs is an accent, not a light source. In a dark room it glows softly; in a lit room it reads as texture.

Do the branches really bend?

Yes, and they hold their shape. Spreading and angling them is the first job after unboxing, and it makes the difference between a tree and a bundle of wire.

Can I hang ornaments on it?

Light ones. The maker says the branches will support extra ornaments, but this is a twig tree rather than a fir, so keep to small and light pieces.

What is the 12V about?

The plug takes 120V from the wall and the adaptor steps it down to 12V before it reaches the tree, so the tree itself runs on low voltage. The adaptor is described by the maker as UL certified.
