While trekking to a tree farm in your favorite snow boots and a cozy sherpa is apart of so many families’ holiday traditions, there are a lot of benefits to keeping it simple and buying an artificial Christmas tree.
For one, you don’t have to worry about removing all the fallen pine that will inevitably adorn your tree skirt before you know it (though one of the Dyson vacuums we reviewed can help with that).
Secondly, you don’t have to go through the hassle of chopping the tree down, propping it on your truck’s roof rack and crossing your fingers, hoping that the tree will (1) fit in your space and (2) stand upright. With the proper faux tree storage bag, you can skip all of that stress and simply assemble, ornament and enjoy the twinkly lights in a fraction of the time.
