The bed is a neat design and is made of real wood, which is a plus nowadays.  The structure is solid although not overly heavy.

The finish is nice  but there are a few light dings and scuffs in the wood. A dark stain (Min-wax or the sort)  touch up felt was useful in hiding some of the imperfections in the finish.  The boards for the bed were in great shape but they could have packaged the headboard unit more carefully.

This is the only real wood captains bed I could find. To have one custom made from real oak in BC or Ontario would have cost a min of $3000.
