Superior Wood
Oak is one of the best woods used in building quality furniture. It is more dense and harder than some other types of wood such as pine, which makes it more durable. Oak doesn't dent or scrape as easily and resists normal wear much better than softer woods. It also resists fungal invasions and insect attacks which insures that any furniture made from solid oak will last a very long time.
Both Red Oak and White Oak is used to build furniture. While both are very durable and offer a beautiful, distinctive, natural grain finish, White Oak is naturally water resistant and a bit more durable than Red Oak. Some captains beds are built with combination solid oak and oak veneers or completely in solid oak. Solid wood is generally the best quality, although more expensive than a combination wood and veneer furniture piece.
Heirloom Quality
If you select an oak captain's bed that is made from fine wood and with quality workmanship, you can be assured of having a bed that will not only be used today, but many years from now. Many of these beds are designed to endure daily use as well as sturdy enough to be passed on.
Versatile and Practical
Captain storage beds that are made from oak are not only durable, but they are also very practical. You can find twin size, full size, queen size and king size captain's beds that offer an array of drawers and compartments for the ultimate in storage. Queen and king size beds may offer as many as 14 drawers plus a storage headboard.
A captain bed is also very versatile and looks perfect as a stand alone piece of furniture or as part of a bedroom collection. Since many oak storage beds offer lots of drawers for storing personal items, some people find that they don't really need an additional chest or dresser. It is perfect if you don't have a lot of floor space. On the other hand, there are beautiful oak captains bed sets that come complete with bed, headboard, chest, dresser and mirror, nightstands and even an armoire.
When searching for just the right bed or bed set, be sure to consider the quality of the wood as well as workmanship. You can find a modestly priced bed in oak and oak veneers or a high quality, beautiful, solid oak captains bed, depending on what you prefer for your home, for whom it is intended and how much you want to spend.
