Which is better for a small apartment?

Both are 6.5 ft pencil trees built for tight spaces, and the National Tree Company lists a 28 inch diameter. The VEIKOUS is the cheaper way to fill a corner, at $49.99 versus $152.49 as of November 5, 2026.

Are LED lights better than incandescent on a Christmas tree?

LEDs use less electricity and last much longer, which favors the VEIKOUS. Incandescent strings like the National Tree Company's stay lit when one bulb burns out, which is easier to live with mid-season.

Is the National Tree Company tree worth the extra money?

Only if you value the shunt-style bulbs, the published 719 tip count and the brand's long history. Otherwise the VEIKOUS does the same job for about $100 less.

Can either tree go outside?

The VEIKOUS is listed as outdoor capable. The National Tree Company listing does not rate the Kingswood Fir for outdoor use, so keep it indoors.

Which has more branch tips?

The National Tree Company lists 719 PVC tips. VEIKOUS does not publish a tip count, so you cannot compare fullness on paper.

The LED lights on the VEIKOUS should outlast incandescent bulbs by years. The National Tree Company tree's build quality is backed by a long-established brand, but its bulbs will need replacing sooner.
