Short answer: The Snow-Flocked 7' Tall Slim Pencil Christmas Tree from luxefindscompany is a 7-foot artificial tree in a slim pencil shape, sprayed with artificial snow, with a footprint of just 21.3 inches square — a good fit for a small room, a hallway or an entryway where a full-width tree will not fit. It is listed at $189.95 (marked down from $617.34 on the maker's site), but it has no lights and no ornaments included, the listing contradicts itself on the tip count (603 in the title, 490 in the specification), and you should allow 20–25 minutes to shape the branches before it looks full.
The hardest part of buying a Christmas tree for a small home is not finding a tree — it is finding one that fits. A standard 7-foot tree can be four or five feet wide at the base, which is fine in a big living room and impossible in a flat, a hallway or a bedroom corner. The Snow-Flocked 7' Tall Slim Pencil Christmas Tree, Artificial Tree with Realistic Branches & 603 Tips, Green (Excluding ball) is built for exactly that problem: full height, a fraction of the width. It stands 7 feet tall but takes up only 21.3 inches by 21.3 inches of floor, and the maker says it suits small rooms or works as a second tree in an entryway.
This review is based entirely on the maker's own product page and catalog listing, checked on 5 November 2026. The site has not hands-on tested this tree, so everything below comes from what luxefindscompany itself states — including one clear contradiction in the listing, which is flagged honestly below, and the gaps where the listing stays silent.

What is the Snow-Flocked 7' Slim Pencil Christmas Tree?
Short answer: It is a 7-foot artificial Christmas tree in a slim pencil shape from Luxe Finds, sprayed with artificial snow, with a metal base and a section design for quick setup, made for indoor use only.
The full product name is the Snow-Flocked 7' Tall Slim Pencil Christmas Tree, Artificial Tree with Realistic Branches & 603 Tips, Green (Excluding ball). It is sold by Luxe Finds, a Shopify store that sells furniture, home decor and seasonal pieces under the tagline "Modern luxury for every room." The tree is one of several Christmas products in the luxefindscompany range for Christmas 2026, alongside a 6-foot snow-flocked pop-up tree and a line of festive decorations.
The defining feature is the shape. A pencil tree is deliberately narrow: the branches stay close to the trunk all the way up, so the tree reads tall and elegant rather than wide and bushy. The maker's listing says the pencil shape "doesn't take up much floor space, making it suitable for small rooms or as a second Christmas tree in an entryway." That is the honest pitch, and it is the reason to buy this tree rather than a standard one. If you have the space for a full tree, a pencil tree will look sparse by comparison. If you do not have the space, a pencil tree is the difference between having a tree and having none.
The second defining feature is the flocking. The branches are sprayed with artificial snow, which the maker says adds "a wintry appearance." Flocked trees have become a fixture of Christmas decorating because the white dusting makes even a plain green tree look dressed before a single ornament goes on. It also means the tree has a finished look straight out of the box, which matters more here than on a standard tree, because this tree arrives undecorated — there are no lights and no ornaments in the box, so the flocking is doing most of the visual work on its own.
The tree is made of plastic and metal, with what the maker calls a "robust metal base for better stability." A metal base matters on a tall, narrow tree, because a pencil tree is top-heavy by design: seven feet of height on a base barely wider than a dinner plate. The maker does not give the base's dimensions or weight, so this review cannot say how heavy or wide the stand itself is — but the choice of metal over plastic is a sensible one for stability, and it is worth checking the stand feels solid when the tree is first assembled.
Price: $189.95, marked down from $617.34
Short answer: The tree is listed at $189.95, marked down from a compare-at price of $617.34 on the maker's site, as a single variant that is in stock.
There is one variant and one price. The tree costs $189.95, and the maker's listing shows a compare-at price of $617.34 next to it. That compare-at figure is the maker's own listing claim, and this review does not treat it as a verified value — it is what luxefindscompany shows on the product page, not a price this site has independently confirmed the tree ever sold at. The listing does not mention a sale end date, and this review does not invent one. What can be verified is the price you actually pay: $189.95, for a single variant, in stock at the time of checking on 5 November 2026.
For context, $189.95 is a mid-range price for a 7-foot artificial tree, and it is $30 more than the 6-foot snow-flocked pop-up tree from the same store, which is listed at $159.95. That comparison is worth making, because the two trees solve different problems. The pop-up tree is shorter, wider, pre-lit with 100 warm lights and arrives fully decorated with golden ornaments. The pencil tree is taller and narrower, has no lights and no ornaments, and asks you to shape it and decorate it yourself. You are paying more for height and for a slim footprint, and less for convenience. If you want a finished tree with almost no work, the pop-up tree is the better buy — our review of it is here: 6 FT Snow Flocked Pre-lit Christmas Tree review. If you want a tall, narrow, undecorated tree you can dress yourself, in a space where a wider tree will not fit, the pencil tree is the one built for that job.
The listed weight is 5,502 grams, about 5.5 kg. That is light enough for one person to carry the box and assemble the tree alone, and it is worth knowing before delivery: this is not a heavy, dense tree, and its lightness is part of why the metal base matters.
The tip-count problem: 603 in the title, 490 in the specification
Short answer: The product title says 603 tips, but the Specification section of the same listing says Tip Count: 490. This review uses 490, because it is the figure in the specification table, but the mismatch is real and the buyer should know about it before ordering.
Tip count is the number the industry uses to signal how full an artificial tree looks. More tips generally means denser branches, fewer visible gaps and a fuller silhouette. On a pencil tree the number matters even more, because the branches are already sparse by design — a pencil tree with too few tips looks thin rather than elegant.
So the contradiction in this listing is worth stating plainly. The title of the product is "Snow-Flocked 7' Tall Slim Pencil Christmas Tree, Artificial Tree with Realistic Branches & 603 Tips, Green (Excluding ball)." The Specification section of the same page says "Tip Count: 490." Those two figures cannot both be right, and the listing offers no explanation for the difference.
This review uses 490 as the working figure, because a specification table is usually the more carefully checked part of a listing, while a title can carry over a number from a different size or an earlier version of the product. But that is a judgement call, not a verified fact, and the honest position is that the true tip count is uncertain until someone counts or the maker corrects the listing. What is certain is that the tree is described in the listing as "lush with tips that provide a healthy, natural look," and that the maker also tells buyers to spend 20–25 minutes spreading out the individual tips to get a full appearance — which is the maker's own admission that the tree does not look full straight out of the box.
If tip count is the deciding factor for you, ask the seller to confirm the number before ordering, and do not treat either figure as guaranteed. If the shape and the footprint are what matter most, the discrepancy is a warning about the listing's accuracy rather than a reason to reject the tree outright — but it is a warning worth heeding.
Size and shape: a pencil tree for tight corners
Short answer: The tree is 7 feet tall (84 inches) with a footprint of 21.3 inches by 21.3 inches, in a slim pencil shape designed for small rooms and entryways, for indoor use only.
The overall dimensions in the listing are 21.3" L x 21.3" W x 84" H. That is the whole story of this tree in three numbers: seven feet of height, less than two feet of width. A standard 7-foot tree can be 45 to 55 inches wide at the base; this one is less than half that. In a flat, a small living room, a bedroom corner or a hallway, that difference is the difference between a tree and no tree. As a second tree — in an entryway, a dining room or a child's room — the narrow footprint means it can stand in a spot where a full tree would block a doorway or swallow the room.
The listing says the tree is for indoor use only, and it says so twice: once in the features ("Indoor-use design is suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, and entryways") and once as an explicit note ("Only for indoor use, not for outdoor"). Do not put this tree on a porch, in a garden or on a balcony. Flocked trees and outdoor weather do not mix — rain turns flocking to mush, and wind will push a tall, narrow tree over no matter how robust the base is. If you need an outdoor tree, this is not it.
The section design is the other practical detail. The tree comes in sections that slot together, which the maker describes as a design "for quick setup." Sectional assembly is standard for artificial trees, and it is what makes a 7-foot tree shippable in a manageable box. The maker does not say how many sections there are or how they connect, so this review cannot describe the assembly step by step — but a sectional tree of this size is normally a two- or three-section build, and one person can manage it.
Setup: allow 20–25 minutes to shape the branches
Short answer: The maker says to allow about 20–25 minutes to spread out the individual tips so the tree looks full, on top of the time needed to assemble the sections.
This is the most honest line in the whole listing, and it is worth quoting in full: "In order to get a full appearance, please spread out all individual tips to get a great possible look from the tree. I suggest you take about 20-25 minutes to shape the tree." Artificial trees arrive compressed, with the branches folded flat against the trunk for shipping. Every artificial tree needs fluffing. The difference here is that the maker puts a number on it — 20 to 25 minutes — which is a realistic estimate for a 7-foot tree and a useful one for planning. Do not expect to unbox this tree and have it look like the product photos in five minutes. Budget half an hour, put on some music, and shape it branch by branch, working from the bottom up and spreading each tip outward and slightly upward.
That shaping time is also the reason the tip-count question matters. A tree with 490 tips needs every one of them spread properly to look full; a tree with 603 would have more to work with. Either way, the finished look depends on the shaping, not just the count. The product photos show a full, evenly flocked tree — but those photos show a tree that has been shaped by someone who knows how, and decorated with ornaments that are not included. Your tree will look like the photos only after the shaping, and only after you have added your own lights and ornaments.

What you get in the box — and what you do not get
Short answer: The box contains the tree, the stand and a manual. Ornaments are NOT included, and there are no lights — the "Excluding ball" in the product name means the baubles in the photos are for display only.
The maker's "Package Includes" section lists two items: 1 x Christmas Tree and 1 x Manual. The features and notes add the rest of the picture: the tree comes with its stand, and nothing else. There are no ornaments, no lights, no tree skirt and no topper in the box.
The title itself says it: "Excluding ball." The ornaments visible in the product photos — the baubles hanging from the branches — are, in the maker's own words, "NOT INCLUDED and are used just for effect." This is an important detail, because the photos are doing a lot of the selling. A flocked pencil tree with a few gold and red baubles looks finished and festive. The same tree without them is a snow-dusted green cone. It is still attractive, and the flocking carries it, but it is not the tree in the photos. Budget separately for lights and ornaments, or plan to reuse the ones you already own.
The absence of lights is the bigger gap. This tree is NOT pre-lit. There are no LED lights built into the branches, no light modes, no power adapter and no battery box. If you want lights — and most people will, because a bare flocked tree in a dim room can look flat — you will need to buy a string of lights and wrap it yourself. That is normal for a traditional artificial tree, and it has an upside: you choose the colour, the warmth and the number of lights, and you can replace them when they fail. But it is a real cost in money and time on top of the $189.95, and it is the main reason the cheaper pop-up tree from the same store is worth considering instead: it arrives with 100 warm lights already in place. For a direct comparison of the two, see our review of the 6 FT Snow Flocked Pre-lit Christmas Tree.
Who should buy it
Short answer: Buy this tree if you need a full-height Christmas tree in a space too narrow for a standard tree, and you are happy to shape it, light it and decorate it yourself.
This tree is for a specific buyer. You have a small living room, a flat, a bedroom, a hallway or an entryway, and you want a real, full-height Christmas tree — not a tabletop tree, not a half tree, not a wall decal. You have your own ornaments, or you enjoy choosing them, and you either already own a string of lights or you are happy to buy one. You like the flocked look and you want the tree to carry the decoration on its own for the first few days while you get around to dressing it. You are willing to spend 20–25 minutes shaping the branches, because you know that is what makes an artificial tree look good. If that is you, the pencil shape is the feature that matters, and this tree delivers it at a mid-range price.
It also works well as a second tree. A main tree in the living room and a slim pencil tree in the entryway or dining room is a common setup for families who decorate more than one room, and the narrow footprint means the second tree does not demand a second large patch of floor. The flocking gives it a distinct look from a plain green main tree, so the two trees do not feel like duplicates.
Who should skip it
Short answer: Skip this tree if you want a finished, lit and decorated tree with no extra work, if you need a wide, full tree for a large room, or if you need a tree for outdoor use.
Do not buy this tree if you want to unbox it and be done. There are no lights and no ornaments, and the shaping alone takes 20–25 minutes before you have even started decorating. If your idea of Christmas decorating is a tree that looks finished the moment it stands up, the 6-foot pop-up tree from the same store is a better fit — it is shorter, cheaper at $159.95, pre-lit and fully decorated.
Do not buy it for a large room either. A pencil tree in a big living room will look thin and lost, especially next to large furniture. Pencil trees are a solution to a space problem; in a room without a space problem, a standard tree will look better for the same money or less.
Do not buy it for outdoor use. The listing is explicit — indoor use only — and a tall, narrow, flocked tree will not survive rain and wind. And if the tip-count contradiction bothers you, that is a legitimate reason to pause: the listing cannot confirm whether the tree has 603 tips or 490, and if that number is how you judge value, ask the seller to confirm it before ordering.
Pros and cons
Short answer: The strengths are the slim 21.3-inch footprint, the full 7-foot height, the flocked finish and the metal base; the weaknesses are the missing lights and ornaments, the tip-count contradiction and the 20–25 minutes of shaping required.
Pros
- Slim pencil shape with a 21.3-inch footprint — fits small rooms, hallways and entryways where a standard tree will not
- Full 7-foot height, so it reads as a real Christmas tree rather than a tabletop decoration
- Snow-flocked branches give it a finished, wintry look before any ornaments go on
- Robust metal base for stability on a tall, narrow tree
- Section design for quick assembly, and a light 5.5 kg weight for easy carrying and storage
- Single variant, in stock, at a mid-range $189.95
Cons
- No lights — not pre-lit, so lights must be bought and wrapped separately
- No ornaments included — the baubles in the photos are for display only
- Tip-count contradiction: 603 in the title, 490 in the specification, with no explanation
- Needs 20–25 minutes of branch shaping before it looks full
- Indoor use only — not suitable for a porch, garden or balcony
- The $617.34 compare-at price is the maker's own claim, not a verified value
Verdict
Short answer: The Snow-Flocked 7' Tall Slim Pencil Christmas Tree is a good buy for one specific situation — a small space that needs a full-height tree — and a poor buy for anyone who wants a finished, lit tree with no extra work. At $189.95 it is fairly priced for what it is, but the missing lights and ornaments and the unresolved tip-count contradiction mean you should buy it for its shape, not for its specification sheet.
The case for this tree is simple and it is all about the footprint. Seven feet tall, 21.3 inches wide, snow-flocked, with a metal base, for $189.95. If your room cannot take a standard tree, that combination is genuinely useful, and there are few cheaper ways to get a full-height tree into a narrow space. The flocking is a real advantage too: it makes the tree look dressed before you have added a single bauble, which softens the fact that the box contains no decorations at all.
The case against it is equally simple. It has no lights and no ornaments, it needs half an hour of shaping, and its own listing cannot agree on how many tips it has. None of those is fatal on its own — traditional artificial trees have always needed lights, ornaments and shaping — but together they mean the $189.95 is the starting price, not the total cost, and the specification sheet is not fully trustworthy. Buy the tree for the shape and the height, check the tip count with the seller if it matters to you, and budget for lights and ornaments on top.
For Christmas 2026, this is a tree for people who decorate deliberately and have a space problem to solve. If that is you, it is worth the money. If you want a tree that arrives finished, look at the pop-up tree from the same store instead.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Snow-Flocked 7' Slim Pencil Christmas Tree pre-lit?
Short answer: No. The tree has no built-in lights — you need to buy and wrap your own string of lights.
The listing describes the branches, the flocking, the metal base and the section design, but it mentions no lights, no light modes and no power supply. This is a traditional unlit artificial tree. If you want a pre-lit tree from the same store, the 6-foot snow-flocked pop-up tree has 100 warm white LED lights with 8 modes built in.
Are ornaments included with the tree?
Short answer: No. Ornaments are not included — the baubles shown in the product photos are for display only.
The product name says "Excluding ball," and the listing states plainly: "Only the tree with the stand is included. Ornaments are NOT INCLUDED and are used just for effect." The box contains the tree, the stand and a manual. Budget separately for ornaments, or reuse ones you already own.
How many tips does the tree have — 603 or 490?
Short answer: The listing contradicts itself — the title says 603 tips and the Specification section says 490. This review uses 490, the specification figure, but the true count is unverified.
Tip count signals how full an artificial tree looks, and on a pencil tree it matters more because the branches are already sparse by design. The listing offers no explanation for the difference. If the tip count decides the purchase for you, ask the seller to confirm the number before ordering rather than relying on either figure.
Will the tree fit in a small room?
Short answer: Yes — that is what it is designed for. It is 7 feet tall but only 21.3 inches square at the base, and the maker says it suits small rooms or works as a second tree in an entryway.
The footprint is 21.3" L x 21.3" W x 84" H, which is less than half the base width of a standard 7-foot tree. It is for indoor use only, so it belongs in a living room, bedroom or entryway, not on a porch or in a garden. Allow 20–25 minutes to spread the branches after assembly so the tree looks full.
