Each time a project of mine calls for wire work, I’m inevitably delighted. Wires mean wire stripping, and wire stripping means I get to use the Vise-Grip Wire Strippers from Irwin. Anytime you get excited just because your project calls for a specific tool…you’ve found a winner. And this bad boy is a thoroughbred champion.
What Is It?
No doubt about it, this is the cadillac of tree stands. Krinner took an extremely cumbersome and difficult process, the process of placing and securing a Christmas Tree into its stand, and they made it, quite simply, a pleasure. For those of us who put up real trees for the Christmas season, you understand the issue at hand all too well.
Even now you are flooded with painful memories of years past. The inevitable struggle that you instantly regret and leaves you declaring “I will never, ever to that again”. The sap that somehow always, no matter how hard you try, leaves your hands sort-of sticky somewhere on only a few of your fingers for at least 12 hours. Or the 27 pine needles that stab you no matter where you grab the trunk. Or the sensation of dipping both of your forearms in a tub of Icy Hot as you struggle to crank the individual fasteners while they utterly fail to provide any sense of confidence that the tree won’t fall the second a door shuts too hard in your house. It’s a nightmare.
Enough is enough! We can do better, humanity.
Enter…the Krinner Christmas Tree Genie.
Developing an entirely new approach to an age old past time, Krinner has redesigned the tree stand from the ground up, and in doing so has given a true gift. Let’s break it down.

Let’s Get Practical
All of the above describes the product itself, what it does, and how it differentiates itself from others like it.
But let’s talk about what it all comes back to. What does using this product actually look like in day-to-day use? Awesome…it has a bunch of cool features…but in practice, are they actually helpful?
I can answer that question only with my experience. With how I put this product to use in my own life to make it easier, more efficient, more consistent, more fun, whatever the case may be. Your experience will, of course, be different. But this should give you a place to start. You can at least read on with the knowledge that no products make it on this site without being a thoroughly tested, tried-and-true part of some area of my life!
