Winter Wonder Rotating Christmas Tree Stand for Artificial Trees

Product Information

Before purchasing a rotating Christmas tree stand, consider several factors. First, determine whether the stand will support a live tree or an artificial tree in a large or small size as well as whether a plastic or metal stand is best suited for the tree. Once those decisions are made, it’s fun to choose additional features for the revolving Christmas tree stand, such as music-playing capacity, remote control, and electrical receptacles for ornamental tree lights.

Additionally, it would help if you never had to trade the ability to move your tree around your home. TreeKeeper Universal Rolling Christmas Tree Stand easily adjusts the width between 30 inches and 36 inches to properly fit your 7-12 ft Christmas tree and ensure its stability. The stand will raise your tree an additional 2.90 inches above the floor. The shaft that holds the tree is 7.55 inches long, and the base is adjustable. After spending hours decorating your Christmas tree, you’ll want to bask in all of its glory from every angle—and a rotating stand allows you to do just that.

Made from steel, this Christmas tree stand supports trees up to 120 pounds and 9 feet tall. Some revolving tree stands require minimal setup, and many are ready to use straight out of the box. If setup is required, it usually takes only a couple of minutes and a screwdriver. Once it’s set up, the stand is ready to plug in and operate. To set up a rotating Christmas tree, assemble the rotating tree stand according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Place the stand in the desired location and secure the tree onto the stand, following the provided guidelines. Plug in the rotating stand, which should begin rotating the tree once activated. Why is my rotating Christmas tree stand not working?

Tree stands aren't typically conversation pieces, but this one is in a league of its own. Made by Danish designer Fritz Hansen, the Stella Christmas Tree Base flaunts an eight-pointed star, which makes it not only beautiful to look at but also incredibly sturdy. It's crafted from FSC-certified wood, meaning the timber was sourced from responsibly managed forests in line with Forest Stewardship Council sustainability criteria. For users who plan to celebrate the season with live trees, it’s important to select a revolving tree stand that is specially designed to accommodate the trunk of a live tree and that also provides a water reservoir. When displaying a live tree, a metal stand may be the wise choice, but there are many well-made, plastic revolving tree stands on the market that hold either live or artificial trees. Tree SizeThis modern, Scandinavian-designed Christmas tree stand has a sleek look and is well-designed, so there’s no need for a Christmas tree skirt or collar. The stand is suited for real Christmas trees and the metal base can hold up to 1.27 gallons of water without leaking, so it’s one less thing to worry about. The Krinner Tree Genie XXL Deluxe Rotating Christmas Tree Stand is the winner on our tree stands list. It is capable of supporting trees up to 12 feet tall and with trunks as wide as 7 inches. Not everyone will employ such a massive tree in their home. However, Krinner’s stand should be appropriate for everybody. The Tree Genie is made primarily of powder-coated stainless steel, an extremely durable, rust-resistant, easy-to-clean material. The claws and lever are made of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), a thermoplastic with high tensile strength. The largest size is pretty heavy at 18 pounds, but this weight helps ensure tall trees don't topple over. Plus, this stand has a patented metal cable that ensures equal pressure from each claw if the trunk is crooked or otherwise off-kilter.

As with all Christmas decorations, safety is a priority when selecting and using a rotating Christmas tree stand. Shoppers can ensure safe and satisfactory performance by choosing an appropriate revolving tree stand to suit the type, height, and weight of their tree. Select the right type of stand for artificial or live trees and avoid exceeding the height and weight limitations stated by the manufacturer. Another well-named product, this Heirloom tree stand from John Wright looks every bit the part of a Victorian Christmas tree stand—but it’s no refurbished antique. It’s made from cast iron with a smooth, rust-resistant urethane finish and certainly durable enough to provide a lifetime of use–and then some. Drop the tree into the cylinder (which is an integrated part of the base, not something that’s welded on), then tighten the three massive brass-plated eye screws. This tree stand holds up to 2 and a half gallons of water (the most on this list), and there's a handy water-level indicator that tells you when to refill it. The opening for adding water is somewhat small, though, so you'll probably need a watering can with a narrow spout to prevent spills. The Tree Genie isn't the most decorative, but it's also not an eyesore. Place a tree skirt around the base, and you'll be good to go. This decorative cast iron stand features a handmade design, which stands out in comparison to other less decorative stands. (You may not even want to use a tree skirt or collar!) The spike in the center of the stand provides stability for trees up to 8 feet tall. Since the base is heavy, it has the potential to damage floors. However, this stand includes foot pads to prevent scratches and marks on wood floors. And although this stand has a high price tag, it’ll last you for years with its urethane finish and powder coating that prevents rusting and chipping. This sturdy base can handle artificial trees up to 8.5 feet tall and those with a maximum trunk diameter of 1.25 inches. We also like that there are two switches on this stand, one for the lights and one for the tree rotation, so you can choose how you want to use the stand. Though it’s not necessarily a dealbreaker, note that the stand only rotates in one direction.You'll also want to pay attention to the material, style, assembly requirements, and ease of use, as some are easier to tighten around the trunk or water than others. With these features in mind, we researched the best Christmas tree stands for every home and budget. A rotating Christmas tree stand typically consists of a motorized base with a built-in mechanism that rotates the tree. The tree is secured onto the stand, and when activated, the motor rotates the stand, causing the tree to spin slowly, adding a dynamic effect to the display. Can you use a rotating tree stand on a real tree? Water capacity: How much water your real tree needs depends on the size of the tree. But a 6-foot Christmas tree, for instance, will drink roughly a gallon of water each day. "Trees drink the most the first few days following a fresh cut," says Lyons. "It's very important to not let water run out in the stand." This typically means you need to refill it daily, so how easily it is to fill and the capacity is important to consider. The Cinco C-148 Express Tree Stand is your best bet when you have a full-size tree but don't want to pay full-size prices. The German-engineeredKrinner Tree Genie Christmas Tree Stand is easy to set up in a couple of minutes and keeps trees up to 12 feet tall secure.

We like the unusual design of this stand if you’re looking for something different and more modern. If you want to show off all of the decorations on your artificial Christmas tree (and not just the ones in the front), an electric rotating stand allows all of the pretty baubles to have a turn to shine. Instead of rolling on caster wheels, the base stays in place while the center spins your tree around, giving a 360-degree view of the tree. You can also use the rotation to access other sides of your tree while hanging lights or Christmas ornaments, which is useful if you place it in a corner. While it doesn't come with a remote control, you can easily start and stop it with the switch on the base. This cast iron decorative Christmas tree stand adds some old-world decorative style to your Christmas scene. This sturdy option comes in five Christmas styles with decorative features like Christmas bells, wreaths, deer, and more, so you can make the most of every inch of your home during the holidays. For the most part, metal Christmas tree stands are the best Christmas tree stands for larger and heavier trees as metal is sturdier than plastic. Spaulding added they are also better for trees in high-traffic areas like living rooms or if you have children or pets who like to tug and potentially climb trees. Plastic tree stands are great for short-term use as they aren’t as long-lasting, especially if you're looking for a one-and-done tree stand at a more affordable price.

Although it’s a bit of an investment, we like that this tree stand is compact and easy to store. Plus, the rotation feature is smooth and silent, so it won’t disrupt any holiday activities.Christmas tree stands are a necessity for anyone who brings a tree into their home during the holiday season. Their purpose pretty much speaks for itself, as cut trees topple over without proper support at the base (shattering ornaments and creating a mess in the process). Plus, like floral bouquets, they need water to prevent drying out and last as long as possible. There are also stands for artificial Christmas trees, which have slightly different features including a rotating design, for a stunning display in your front window, or wheels to make decorating easier. The National Tree Folding Tree Stand keeps your artificial tree stable and folds up after the holidays are over for easy storage.
