Beware of this stand. I bought one several years ago (not sure if it was the same brand, but looks exactly the same and I paid about the same price) at a big name home improvement store and it was great as long as my tree wasn't over 5 1/2 feet. Even with the two level screw system it is difficult to keep a larger tree - say, anything 6 feet and up, from tilting in the stand. I noticed over the past couple of days the tree leaning ever so slightly, and this evening, CRASH there it went. The tree didn't come out of the stand, the whole stand tipped over with it. The stand has a wide base, but something is missing, maybe it's too short or something. I wouldn't recommend this stand if you'd like your tree to stay upright.
