Your Balsam Hill tree is packaged for easy unboxing. Getting it ready to decorate is a 1-person job that takes minutes. For decorating, however, we recommend bringing the family in on the fun.
Each tree comes with a scratch-proof stand with rubber feet to protect your floors and fabric gloves to protect your hands during setup and shaping. Once you have the tree in its stand, the hinged branches will fall into place.

Balsam Hill™ is proud to unveil the latest in Christmas tree design: our state-of-the-art Flip Tree™ technology. This unique patented design is protected by two issued US Patents (#8,062,718 and #8,993,077) and is exclusive to Balsam Hill. With this innovation, we have eliminated the need to lift heavy sections of the artificial Christmas tree during assembly and storage. Homeowners can simply roll in the tree out of the box on its wheeled base, lock it securely into place, flip the bottom section up, and install the lightweight tree top. Flip Trees up to 7.5’ generally come in just two sections, so only the tree top needs to be lifted. Larger Flip Trees may have two top sections. In just a few easy steps, you can assemble a grand holiday display.Flip Tree Setup Video: Watch how easy it is to assemble your new Balsam Hill Flip Tree.

Balsam Hill™ prides itself on the quality of its products, and wants you to enjoy your tree for many years to come. The online <a href="/inspiration/artificial-christmas-tree-assembly-instructions" target="_self">Assembly, Use, &amp; Care Instructions Guide</a> shows you how easy it is to set up and maintain your Balsam Hill Christmas tree.

StandardSetup

The innovative design of this Instant Evergreen Tree makes setup easy and fast. Featuring unique memory wire branches that automatically fan out into place as you set up your tree, our Instant Evergreen trees are ready in minutes. This tree also features our Easy Plug® technology, which means the light strings automatically connect through the trunk of the tree during setup - the only light string you need to touch for a beautifully lit tree is the one you plug into the wall. This truly instant tree will save you valuable time and effort compared to setting up and fluffing a traditional artificial tree.Setup Video for Instant Evergreen Trees: Watch how easy it is to set up your new Balsam Hill Instant Evergreen Tree.

Pre-fluffed

Shape the tree section by section, starting at the bottom. So, if your tree comes in 3 sections, shape the lowest section before putting the second section on top. You might also consider tying up the higher levels of branches in the sections to keep them out of your way. You can use the ribbon that came on your tree.Tip: Save that ribbon for wrapping up your tree after the season

Trees

The first time you assemble and shape your tree will require the most shaping to give the tree its full lush appearance. <a href="{0}" target="_self">Learn More</a>

Remove the top section of the tree before flipping the tree base. After placing each section of the tree in the provided storage bags, roll your Flip Tree into storage with the utmost ease.

Flip

The less you compress your tree at the end of the season, the less work you will have when setting up next year.
