i feel stupid because i still dont understand what the product does/is and i even read and watched the video on how to use it -carla I think what it does is that you hook the boots up to the base of the tree, and fill them with water. Over the next ten days it will send the water to keep the tree hydrated or whatever you want to call it. After ten days though, the boots are empty, so you have to refill it. So I assume the purpose of the product is to keep the hassle from having to water your Christmas Tree every day, as well as use it for a cute decoration for under the tree. But I've never had a real Christmas tree, so I'm not if that makes any sense, just what I got out of the animation. wow, good! the purpose of the product more so is to be able to not have crouch under the tree and 'guess' that you're actually reaching the tree stand to fill it with water -- some people miss and like, get water everywhere and on presents or something. so all you have to do is put that plastic tubing in the tree stand and fill the BOOTS, which is set AWAY from the tree. it's siphon technology so it doesn't overflow or anything. each boot holds a gallon of water and the boots have an o-ring/mini tube connection between them so the water levels out. it also levels out with the amount of water that flows into the tree stand so that's why it never overwaters, or overflows the tree.

My dad is allergic to pine trees, so it was either make it so he couldn't ever breathe, or have an artificial Christmas tree.
We ended up choosing the artificial Christmas tree.
Except, now, since my brother lives out of state and I'm an adult, we have nothing because my parents feel like it's not worth the effort.

oh i see. allergies... i think i knew of someone who had that problem.
oh oh! i don't think i'll EVERRR be able to find the picture of ithe little tree, but one time when we all went to go find a tree to cut down (in the snow, awww), my dad cut the top off of a tree for me so i could have a little christmas tree in my room.
i put it in a big az cardinals cup though. that was it's tree stand. and no santa boots for this one either. oo... but it had m&m lights!! woooo
