The tree was easy to put together but for a woman to lift it would be a little heavy,it's really a very pretty tree when you get it up, the only bad part was the the plastic tips of the tree break off really easy. This is the first time putting it, I hope next year I don't loose anymore pieces six broke this year. It's a beautiful tree when you finish, just not sure if I would spend that kind of money on a tree like that ever again.
