In all honesty, one that fits in your home that you like the general look of! Don't buy a fat tree that won't fit in your home. Or a tall tree that'll hit the ceiling (unless thats your thing).

I could go into detail about the different types of manufacturing, but for the end consumer the difference is negligible.

E.g. PVC (for the plastic leaves) can range from virgin grade to 50% recycled. The price from our end can be up to three times different. However the tree still looks the same. That being said, the overall feel of the pvc is really poor and the tree will look beat up even when you take it out of the box.

Truthfully, I don't even set up a tree in my house (I guess the shoemakers kids go barefoot). Real trees are great actually and I fully support them as well, just not as perfect as artificial ;)

Real trees also tend to be a firehazard, so that can be a big headache for some of the people putting them up.
