Krinner K67 94710 15.4" Tree Stand-Green, Plastic Metal, M

Product Information

With the Tree Genie XXL your tree can be comfortably adjusted at any time, no additional helping hands needed. For those who want to skip crawling under the tree to tighten bolts while family members bark instructions, the Krinner Christmas Tree Genie may feel like a Christmas miracle.

Make sure that you choose one of our premium real Christmas tree stands for a safe and secure festive season. And if you want to save yourself the trouble of getting tangled up in tree lights, consider a beautiful pre-lit Christmas tree.You know the design: Four bolts tighten against the tree trunk to stabilize it, and the bolts can thread in to grip a tree with a diameter as little as a 3½ inches. We then filled the stand’s reservoir with 1½ gallons of water (or the stand’s maximum, if it was less than this amount), and noted how difficult it was to fill, and how likely it was to overflow or spill onto your floor. The Krinner has a unique fastening mechanism that’s far simpler and easier to use than that of any other tree stand we found.

Some Christmas tree stands are designed to optimise your tree’s survival and reduce your own stress of getting poked by wonky tree needles.Our gauge maxed out at 50 Newtons, which anyone with a physics background can tell you is not a lot of force—but, in most cases it was enough to tip over our test trees and not far beyond what you’d cause with an accidental bump into the tree. We should mention that durability of the stands didn’t seem like an issue in any of the options we tested—the bigger variable was the stability, and that’s what set the Cinco and our main pick apart. All of our Christmas Trees sold from our premises outside of Cirencester are grown within the UK to ensure the freshness and quality from our growers to your business or home.

There are a whole host of fashionable stands in metal or wood and stunning designer Scandi-style stands that look like a decoration all of their own. To prevent the stand’s claws from coming loose, the foot pedal can be locked in place by sliding the red button down. This is a huge distinction between the Krinner and almost all other stands, which force you to get down on your belly to tighten individual bolts.Of course, it's not exactly an exciting festive purchase to make, but if you want your day to go off without a hitch, it might be one of the most important to ensure your Christmas tree looks its best for the big moment. Steve was especially impressed with the easy setup, saying, “I’ve never been able to set up a Christmas tree by myself. Whether it’s finding great products or discovering helpful advice, we’ll help you get it right (the first time).

Measuring 58cm wide at the base and 26cm high, the skirt is suitable for real and artificial trees up to 6ft tall. Unlike stands that require you to wriggle the tree in and fasten it into place with metal hooks, this Krinner stand uses a foot pump to secure the tree, so it's a one-person job.However, I’ve been checking the water level by hand as well, and the indicator on mine has been reliable. The other major complaint is a loss of tension in the ratchet and claw mechanism, which can allow a tree to topple over. The Cinco Express is a better (and bigger) version of the typical stand, with a stable design, large reservoir, and a quick-release screw that makes adjustments easy. A stand should have a sizable water reservoir to prevent needles from drying out and falling all over the floor.
