About This Site

Gunnard Christmas Tree Stands started with a simple frustration: every December, someone in the family ends up under the tree with a flashlight, refilling a tiny reservoir and fighting a crooked trunk. We wanted better answers than the product listings give you, so we started researching — measuring trunk diameters, comparing reservoir sizes, and testing which stands actually hold a tree straight for a month.

Everything on this site is written for a real tree in a real living room, not a showroom. We're independent — we don't take payment for listings, and our recommendations are based on what actually works.

What We Cover

• Buying guides for stands by budget, tree size, and tree type.
• Sizing charts so you match the stand to your trunk, not just the tree's height.
• Tree care — watering, the fresh cut, and keeping a tree alive all season.
• Setup how-tos for getting a tree straight the first time.

If there's a question we haven't answered, get in touch — we're actively adding guides every season.
