Oh, I wish I could love this thing, but I just don't. I applaud the fact that Australian design firm Buro North's flatpack holiday tree (full-size tree $1,418.50, US) is 80 percent more environmentally sound than a traditional tree, based on its production process, flat shipping, and reuse factor. But shipping from Australia? I can't imagine how that's more "green" than buying a cut tree from a local tree farm. And at such a steep price, you'd have to be sure that you'll reuse this tree for the rest of your modern-design obsessed lifespan.

Yea, not a fan...it is so plain and not really even THAT Christmasy looking...
1in the right enviroment it could be tasteful
2doesn't really do much for me.. looks a little blah, and yea it doens't really look like christmas..
3It's okay.
4No thanks...
5The trees ok, it's the price I hate.
6I like the tree, I'd buy it if it was $50 to $100.
7I love the Tree art in the background though!!!!
8LilPeaPod, I was commenting just to say the same thing! That would look great in my bedroom.
9I like the painting but not the wood tree decoration thing
10But you can use it forever...
11I would expect to see that at Wal-Mart for $10. If that were the case I would like it a lot more.
12I don't hate it and, if it weren't so expensive, I might even like it ... but at that price?! No way.
13It looks like a piece of DNA made into a tree. I think it could be better design but it is a novel idea.
14Hate it
15I don't like it, and for that price it would have be left out year round.
