x8 FT Pre-Lit Artificial Christmas Tree with 1438 PVC Tips, 430 Warm White LEDs and Iron Stand
Four hundred and thirty warm white bulbs sit among 1438 dense PVC tips on an eight foot cone that spreads 4.8 feet. Branches are hinged so they open as each section goes up, and the transformer is stated by the manufacturer as UL certified.

The eight foot footprint
Eight feet tall with a 4.8 foot spread, which is a full profile shape and a wide one for the height. Allow a clear circle of about five and a half feet. Sizing guides pair an eight foot tree with a ten foot ceiling, or nine feet if the topper lies flat on the leader.
How the tips and bulbs sit
The magnified circle shows bulbs tucked down among the needles rather than sitting on top of the branch. With 1438 tips packed around them the light spreads through the foliage instead of glaring. The manufacturer calls the needles fire resistant and non-allergenic PVC.
Lights off, lights on
The same tree both ways, with the transformer shown between them. Unlit it is a plain dense green fir with a good outline and no visible pole. Lit, the warm white carries into the centre rather than stopping at the outer branches. The manufacturer states the transformer is UL certified.
What you get
430 warm white LEDs
Pre-strung through every section on a single plug, with nothing to test or untangle first.
1438 branch tips
Dense PVC needles counted by the manufacturer, enough to hide the pole across a 4.8 foot spread.
Hinged branches
Every branch stays on the trunk and opens out as the section is raised, like a fan unfolding.
Iron base
Metal rather than plastic, which matters more on an eight foot tree than on a small one.
UL certified transformer
Stated by the manufacturer, with a 120 V 60 Hz input and a 30 V 290 mA output.
Sectional build
The trunk lifts apart for storage, which is the only way eight feet goes back into a box each January.

Who is this perfect for?
Rooms with a high ceiling
Eight feet by 4.8 needs the height and the floor, and given both it carries a large room on its own.
Households that want simple
One light colour, one switch, no modes to programme. It looks the same good way every evening.
First tree buyers
Warm white on green suits every ornament anyone already owns, so nothing else has to be bought.
What we stand behind
- The 1438 tip count and the 430 LED count are printed on the manufacturer's own detail panel.
- The 8 ft by 4.8 ft size is read off the maker's dimension drawing.
- The comparison with the 7 and 7.5 ft sizes uses the figures published on those trees' own panels, since both are carried here.
- Ships from a Canadian warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to set up?
The frame goes together quickly, since the branches are hinged and open on their own. Shaping is the slow part, and the manufacturer suggests allowing 45 to 60 minutes to bring the tree to its fullest form. Fluffing guides recommend working bottom section upward rather than all at once.
What colour are the lights?
Warm white only. There is no mode controller on this model, so the tree is simply on or off. If you want colour options or flashing patterns, other trees in this range have them.
What ceiling height do I need?
Ten feet is comfortable for an eight foot tree, allowing about a foot above the tip for a topper. Under a nine foot ceiling it will fit with a flat topper. Under eight feet it will not stand.
What happens if a bulb fails?
Lighting trade guidance is that an LED which fails but stays intact leaves the rest of the run lit, while a lens cracked right through can take out a whole section. These lights are fitted at the factory, so treat them as part of the tree rather than a string to swap.
