10 Benefits of Artificial Christmas Trees

Cost

Artificial Christmas trees can be reused year after year, making the initial investment a significant money saver over time. Depending on the style you choose, an artificial tree can be less expensive than a real one, and even a pricier model will be more economical in the long run. If you’re looking to reduce the financial impact of the festive season, an artificial Christmas tree is a great option.

Convenience

For those with busy lives, an artificial tree is a practical choice. Once set up and decorated, it requires no maintenance, no watering, and won’t drop needles all over the floor. You won’t have to vacuum up needles or pick them out of the carpet well into the spring!

Transportation

Artificial Christmas trees are relatively light for their size, with larger trees breaking down into separate pieces for storage. The trees are boxed, making them easy to transport home. Once home, they can be packed away in the loft, garage, or cupboard after Christmas for use in future years. In contrast, real trees are heavy, awkward to maneuver, and larger ones may not fit in your car, often making a mess in your vehicle.

Disposal

While getting a real tree home is one thing, disposing of it after Christmas is another, often requiring another messy trip in your car. An artificial Christmas tree only needs to make it to your loft, making it the way to go if the festive season leaves you worn out.

Longevity

If you tend to put up your tree late, a real tree will last the duration. However, for those who decorate early, real trees may start to brown before twelfth night arrives. An artificial tree maintains its appearance, looking bright and fresh no matter how long you leave it standing.

Allergies

Many people are allergic to Christmas trees due to molds that grow on them. These molds, known as Christmas Tree Syndrome, flourish and increase when the trees are displayed in homes, triggering cold-like symptoms and asthma attacks. Artificial trees do not have this issue and are a safer choice for asthma and allergy sufferers.

Appearance

Finding the right real tree for your space can be challenging, as natural trees can lack symmetry and be too wide at the base. Artificial trees, like the Artificial Frosted Spruce Pine Christmas Tree, are available in various shapes and sizes, always maintaining a symmetrical and attractive finish once decorated. They also come in different colors and finishes to suit your taste and decor, allowing you to make a statement with your choice.

Online Purchasing

Because real trees vary dramatically in shape and form, you need to travel to choose and collect one to ensure it’s right for your home. Artificial trees can be safely ordered online and delivered to your door, saving you time and effort.

Ease of Decoration

The symmetry and balance of an artificial tree make hanging decorations easy. Some artificial trees even come pre-lit, simplifying the hardest part of decorating. If space is tight, a tall, narrow artificial tree can take up less room, be easily decorated, and still look beautiful and dramatic when finished.

Safety

Safety is a primary consideration when choosing anything for the home, and artificial Christmas trees score highly in this regard. Real trees can become fire hazards as they dry out, while artificial trees are made from flame-retardant materials. Whichever tree you choose, keep it away from naked flames and turn off the lights when the tree is unattended.
