OK, it's a struggle getting it into the car and it leaves a mess. You have to cut off the bottom few inches and trim the low branches. Putting it in place can be no joke and leads to many an argument - "it's straight dear - no it's not from my side" and so on.
The needles drop and get everywhere and you'll be finding them until next Christmas. Afterwards you need to dispose of it and can never get all the needles out of the car.
A big pain all round.
But I will never stop having a real tree - the smell wafting across in the morning as you open the door brings back memories of Christmas past - lovely.
