Heather, I'm glad you mentioned the"hinged" tree. That's what ours is.
Another thing about prelit ones is...We had a branch lose half it's lights. I changed the fuse and everything. It still didn't work. Sure it has a guarantee on it, but I'm not going to bother sending it back. I just moved the branches around and took out another layer (so the cords would match up) It actually looks MORE real than before.
