How wide is the tree at the base?

The tree is 3.8 ft wide, and the stand is 32 inches across. That slim footprint is the point of the pencil shape.

How many branch tips does it have?

Listings give 3100 branch tips, though the description also mentions 2583. Either way the tip count is high for a pencil tree, which gives it a dense look.

How many sections does it come in?

It assembles from five sections on a metal stand. The sections separate for off-season storage.

Is it fire-resistant?

The PVC foliage is described as flame-retardant, fade-resistant and odor-free. That does not make it fireproof, so keep it away from open flames and heat.

One tree, two pairs of gloves and a user guide. Ornaments and lights are not included.

Will it fit an 8-foot ceiling?

No. At 12 ft assembled it needs a room with well over 12 ft of clearance, such as a two-story foyer or vaulted living room.

Our take on the Gymax 12 FT Artificial Pencil Christmas Tree

This is a 12-foot pencil-style artificial Christmas tree with a slim 3.8-foot footprint, built from PVC foliage on a metal frame. It is modeled on a Fraser fir, with thousands of branch tips for a full, tiered look in a tall, narrow shape. The PVC is described as flame-retardant, fade-resistant and odor-free. It suits high-ceiling rooms, entryways and tight corners where a wide tree won't fit. Against fuller 12-foot trees it trades width for floor space, and its height means setup and decorating take real effort.
