I prefer a real tree. It has more if a Christmas feel with the tree smell and going to pick one out and all of that. It’s too much work though getting it in the car, sawing the stem, have it leave needles everywhere, prick your fingers, water it, sometimes it has bugs or smells weird, get it out after Christmas and have it leave a mess, find a place to throw it away at etc. Especially considering I live in an apartment. So I have a fake tree. If someone else agreed to handled it all then I’d want a real one. We had real trees at home when I grew up.
I only liked out of compassion that - watch for those nests and bugs now 🐝 🐝🍯 etc 🪳🪳🐀 even cockroaches mice etc
I’d take fake. Much easier
I prefer real, but fake trees can be pretty too
Real are best but artificial is easier
To maintain and less messier , but I do like a real Christmas tree and I will probably get real trees of if I ever have grand kids
Real. I did a deep dive and found out as long as your community composts the trees its actually better for the environment to use a real tree as opposed to a fake tree.

I've never had a real one... they're a bit too smelly, lol
A real tree is nice but a fake tree is more practical.
We bought a new fake tree this year. It looks good.
Nothing beats the look, smell, and feel of a real tree. However, just as the comments before me said, real trees are much more annoying to deal with.
Parents used to do a real one when I was a kid. They do fake now. Same for the little one in our dorm.
When I was a kid, we had fake. I remember crying at the suggestion we get a real one. Now, it's always real. The aroma is wonderful.
Real anything is more authentic but fake is just more practical. Fake plants in general are more practical than real plants.
Some newspaper mentioned one time a person bought a real life tree and it had bugs that attacked them.
So that aside, and even when I pull mine out of the storage year in year checking for cockroaches nests etc if any kind etc - I always love fake trees
Don't even let Hollywood take you for a sucker about "real trees" - fake trees are my jam for Christmas 🎄🎁 hell
Hell, they're so cheap fake and easy to buy, I'm glad I've always grown up and lived with fake Christmas trees ; 😂 though supposedly there was just 1 year (maybe before I was born) when my folks may have had a real tree themselves. Shrug
Fake with built in lights. Assemble and plug in. When the season is over unplug and rebox. No pine needles or sap making a mess.
We always have a real one but dad always says they catch on fire really easy! but they smell so nice
I don't celebrate religious holidays, so I have only New Years tree.
It's fake, we need to save the real trees.
Because real Christmas trees are, well Christmas-y.
Real has more charm but can be pain to set up. Fake is more convenient and less of a mess
Real for sure!
I have had a fake tree for years now.
I like real Christmas trees
I've had a real one since I was 9.
Real
