Marriage Saver Tree Stand

Read about our great Christmas tree stand.

2009 price: just $42.97 (extra wide base + larger water bowl $49.97)

  • We feature Tim Mitchell’s Yule Stands and have sold thousands of them. Our customers have dubbed the stand the “Marriage Saver” because anyone can set up their Christmas tree in 30 seconds without bolts, adjustments or family “discussion”. The stands are very stable, hold ample water and should last indefinitely.

  • Here's how it works: 1) Before it is wrapped, your tree is clamped in a special drill rig. While it is held perfectly straight (you supervise the procedure!), we drill a tapered hole in the bottom. 2) Lay down your wrapped tree at home, put the pin of the stand in the drilled hole and tap the base of the pin with a hammer until it is seated tightly . 3) Put tree/stand upright and unwrap. 4) Rotate tree on the pin to have desired side face you. 5) Add water to bowl and top up as needed.

  • Tim Mitchell developed his Yule Stand in Phoenix, Arizona in the 1950’s. Tim needed an easy-on/easy-off tree stand, because in the city's desert environment Christmas trees had to be kept in water while on display. Today, Tim’s family operates 12 Christmas tree lots in the Phoenix area and his stands are in use across North America. We do not recommend the stands for trees over 10 feet. A custom-made stand is best for Church-size trees.
