We’ve set up enough artificial Christmas trees to know that with care, decoration, and attention to detail, many of them can look beautiful. National Tree Company’s 7.5-foot Feel Real Downswept Douglas Fir stands out as a realistic, competitively priced, versatile, and attractive option that we recommend first among the dozen-plus trees we’ve tried since 2016. But with experience, we’ve also come to recognize that there’s no single “best” artificial tree out there. Our goal is to introduce you to reliable manufacturers, and our picks are among their best examples.

National Tree Company 7.5-foot Feel Real Downswept Douglas Fir (PEDD1-D12-75), the best artificial christmas tree

National Tree Company 7.5-foot Feel Real Downswept Douglas Fir (PEDD1-D12-75)

The best artificial Christmas tree
Realistic, full, generously sized, and versatile, this LED-lit tree can switch between all-white and multicolor modes, and the lights connect as you put the sections together.
We recommend
Puleo 7.5-foot Royal Majestic Douglas Fir Downswept Tree (RMDD-75QC8), wonderful realism, traditional lights

Puleo 7.5-foot Royal Majestic Douglas Fir Downswept Tree (RMDD-75QC8)

Wonderful realism, traditional lights
Offering exceptional realism, Puleo’s Royal Majestic Douglas Fir comes with warm, clear incandescent lights—the kind that keep working even if one bulb goes out.
Another good choice
King of Christmas 7-foot King Noble Flock Fir , snowy, showy scenery

King of Christmas 7-foot King Noble Flock Fir

Snowy, showy scenery
In addition to having realistic needles, the King Noble is also flocked—covered in artificial snow. It’s lovely, especially set against a dark nighttime window or in an unlit corner.
Another good choice
Balsam Hill 7.5-foot Fraser Fir Flip Tree Color + Clear LED, a cadillac of christmas trees

Balsam Hill 7.5-foot Fraser Fir Flip Tree Color + Clear LED

A Cadillac of Christmas trees
More lights, more realistic branch tips, more money: For a long-term investment, Balsam Hill’s most popular “species” is hard to beat.
A better upgrade
Puleo 7.5-foot Pre-Lit Aspen Fir Tree (277-APG-75C7), trendy look, nice price

Puleo 7.5-foot Pre-Lit Aspen Fir Tree (277-APG-75C7)

Trendy look, nice price
Trees like this Puleo, with a sparser, shaggier look, are trendy, and the larger gaps between their branches make it easier to hang and show off ornaments.
Budget friendly
National Tree Company 7.5-foot Feel Real Downswept Douglas Fir Pencil Slim (PEDD4-392D-75), a slimmer version of our pick

National Tree Company 7.5-foot Feel Real Downswept Douglas Fir Pencil Slim (PEDD4-392D-75)

A slimmer version of our pick
Artificial trees offer a lot of versatility, as this space-saving version of our pick proves. If you don’t want a tiny tree in a small room, consider a slim model with a minimal footprint.
