Product Information

Whether your artificial Christmas tree comes pre-lit or you’ll add the lighting, this tree stand is the perfect way to enjoy a decorated tree. The tree rotates, which is especially handy if you’re decorating the tree with your own lights and ornaments. Plus, once it’s set up, you can set your tree to rotate and admire all your beautiful Christmas decorations. Christmas tree stands come in a variety of sizes, shapes, heights, and weights. The size of the Christmas stands you want to get depends on the size of your tree. “If you have a large tree with lots of branches, then you'll want a stand that can accommodate both its height and its width,” says Spaulding. This decorative cast iron stand features a handmade design, which stands out in comparison to other less decorative stands. (You may not even want to use a tree skirt or collar!) The spike in the center of the stand provides stability for trees up to 8 feet tall. Since the base is heavy, it has the potential to damage floors. However, this stand includes foot pads to prevent scratches and marks on wood floors. And although this stand has a high price tag, it’ll last you for years with its urethane finish and powder coating that prevents rusting and chipping. The most popular way to hide and cover a Christmas tree stand is by using a tree collar or skirt. These decorative pieces are available in a wide variety of colors and patterns and can be placed at the bottom of the tree to conceal the stand. You may even choose to hide your stand with other holiday decorations like presents, statues, or fabric.

Although it’s a bit of an investment, we like that this tree stand is compact and easy to store. Plus, the rotation feature is smooth and silent, so it won’t disrupt any holiday activities. Petite tabletop trees, in general, are less than four feet tall and have a trunk diameter of three inches maximum, so you'll only need a modest tree stand to match. How do you keep a Christmas tree straight in a stand? The tree stand is a bit heavy, so you’ll want to be sure you know exactly where you want your tree to go before assembling it.Firstly, it's important to understand how vital a role watering plays in keeping your Christmas tree looking vibrant and healthy. Think of your trees like cut flowers and the stand like a vase. In a very similar way to the flowers, a Christmas tree soaks up water from the bottom, which means the vase or stand needs to be topped up every now and again. Without access to water, your tree will dry out, resulting in brittle needles that turn brown and drop off. Not the look you want to come downstairs to on Christmas morning! Whether for an indoor or outdoor display, a Christmas tree stand is essential for keeping your live tree upright and preventing it from toppling over.

Enthusiastic holiday decorators may like having more than one Christmas tree in their home—on a nightstand or desk, for example. Tabletop Christmas trees require less support than a standard tree since they are smaller in height and weight, but you’ll still want a stand to keep your small tree upright and sturdy. Opt for this stand made to support artificial trees up to 4 feet tall. A Christmas tree stand is essential if you plan to choose a real tree for this year's holiday festivities. How do I choose a Christmas tree stand? A freshly cut Christmas tree doesn't have any roots and drinks water up from the bottom. This means it is impossible to over-water your Christmas tree. You might be surprised to learn that even smaller trees can drink up to 2 pints of water per day, with larger trees soaking up even more. In fact, when a tree is first cut, over half its weight is water. As for the kind of water to use, plain tap water is just fine. You might be advised to add sugar, aspirin, lemonade or even vodka but most experts agree that plain water works best. How to hide a Christmas tree stand

This sturdy base can handle artificial trees up to 8.5 feet tall and those with a maximum trunk diameter of 1.25 inches. We also like that there are two switches on this stand, one for the lights and one for the tree rotation, so you can choose how you want to use the stand. Though it’s not necessarily a dealbreaker, note that the stand only rotates in one direction.
