Description
x5 FT Fibre Optic Christmas Tree with 170 Tips, 21 LEDs and Lit Snowflakes
Five feet is where this range starts feeling like a proper room tree. 170 PVC branch tips, 21 LED lights, fibre strands running to every tip, snowflake discs wired into the branches and a lit star on top. The spread is 2.4 ft, and it comes in three pieces: two tree sections and a metal stand.

The tree that is finished when it is up
Most of the work on a tree is not the tree
The frame goes up in ten minutes. Then comes the light string, the extension cord, the ornaments, the topper, and the hour spent making the front look better than the back.
Lights, snowflakes and topper all fitted
On this one the fibre strands, the 21 LEDs, the snowflake discs and the star are all wired in at the factory. Two tree sections slot into a metal stand and it plugs into one outlet. There is nothing else to add unless you want to.
A fibre optic tree works differently from a pre-lit one. Light comes from a source at the base and travels out along clear strands, so the branch ends glow instead of bulbs sitting on wires. At five feet that effect covers a decent part of a room.
Five feet on a 2.4 foot footprint
The drawing gives 5 ft of height against a 2.4 ft spread. That ratio is narrower than a traditional full tree, which is what makes a five footer workable in a flat or a small living room. Under a standard 8 ft ceiling there is comfortable clearance for the star.
Two completely different trees
The manufacturer's own day and night pair is the fairest way to show what you are buying. By day: a plain green tree with white snowflakes. By night: colour at the end of every strand, moving through red, blue, white, green, yellow, purple and pink.
How much room it actually takes
In a real room the 2.4 ft spread reads as modest. There is space to walk past it and space for gifts underneath without the branches sitting on them. Five feet puts the star at about eye level for most adults.
Three pieces, one plug
Assembly is two tree sections into a metal stand. No branches to hook on, no light string to wind, no topper to balance. The manufacturer describes the lights as UL listed, and Health Canada advises checking for a CSA, cUL or cETL mark on the unit you receive.
What you get
170 branch tips
Enough dense PVC foliage to hold a full shape at five feet with the lights off.
21 LED lights
Bulbs inside the tree as well as the fibre ends, which gives the display depth.
Lit snowflake ornaments
Snowflake discs wired into the branches, lighting with everything else.
Seven colours
Red, blue, white, green, yellow, purple and pink, alternating between sequences.
Three piece setup
Two tree sections and a metal stand, so it goes up and comes down quickly.
Metal stand
A metal stand rather than moulded plastic, which counts at this height.
Low voltage supply
120V in, 12V AC at 300mA out through an adapter the manufacturer states is UL certified.
Nothing to add
Star, ornaments and lights are all fitted, so no ornament boxes come out of the loft.

Frequently asked questions
How does a fibre optic tree differ from a pre-lit one?
A pre-lit tree has bulbs wired along the branches, so you see the string. A fibre optic tree has one light source in the base feeding clear strands out to the branch ends, so the tips glow and there is no visible wiring. This one has both: fibre strands and 21 LEDs.
How many pieces is it, and does it need tools?
Three pieces, no tools. Two tree sections and a metal stand. The branches are already attached and the lighting is already wired, so there is nothing to connect between sections.
Can I hang my own ornaments?
A few light ones near the trunk. Anything covering a branch end blocks a fibre tip, and the tree is designed to be the display on its own.
What ceiling height does five feet need?
Almost any room. Guides advise keeping about a foot of clear air above the tree, and five feet plus a stand leaves well over that under a standard eight foot ceiling.
