The Best Artificial Christmas Trees to Buy This Year

O, Christmas tree. O, Christmas tree. How lovely are thy fake branches. Yes, we said it. Although artificial Christmas trees are as polarizing as college football rivalries in the South, they can look beautiful and have many benefits. With the stresses of everyday life coupled with all of those December demands, there's no shame in going faux; even our own Grumpy Gardener sings the praises of the artificial tree.

If you're sold on buying one, be sure you know all the facts and read our pre-buy checklist before clicking "add to cart." Whether you're looking for a 7.5-foot green tree or a tiny tinsel table-topper, these are the best ones around. With a fake Christmas tree, you can spend your holiday time with family and friends, and keep it up and decorated well after the holiday season has come to an end. There's no carrying a cumbersome tree home from the Christmas tree lot. You won't have to worry about watering your tree or cleaning up messy pine needles all season long either.

This Christmas, we've made it even easier for you to consider going faux by choosing the best ones on the market that will make the season merry and bright. Grumpy approved. These are the best artificial trees on the market.
