This was introduced in 1991 as Felicity's Tall-Post with Tester; the name later changed to Felicity's Bed & Bedding, and it retired in 2011 with Felicity's archival. (From 2007 to 2009 the Bedding was available as a separate purchase.)
PC description of Tall-Post with Tester: This fine hardwood bedstead has a soft mattress and pillow covered with a red toile counterpane. The bed hangings of traditional colored check include side curtains that you can pull closed to keep Felicity snug from the drafty night air. The matching canopy, or "tester," gives the bed an elegant appearance that's just perfect for pleasant dreams.
AG description of Bedding: Includes her counterpane, checked bed hangings, and canopy topper.
Felicity's Four-Poster Canopy Bed
Overall rating: A
Pro's: The bed is cute (and is not made of plastic)
Con's: The wood in the newer beds isn't the best quality.. It's somewhat cheap feeling.
Detailed Review: I purchased a Felicity bed from the 'Bay and I was pleasantly surprised when I got it- it's condition was better than I expected. I was somewhat dissapointed with the quality of the wood. It was very light, pretty much as light as plastic. However, this is a newer bed and the wood likely differs from its Pre-Mattel predecessor. The canopy part is very nice, a light cloth, again, probably different from the older beds.... The bed cover has a nice print that is very cute! I wish the pillow had a pillowcase and the matress had a sheet. I can probably buy those elsewhere, though. The bed is nice, if you have the space. I would try to get a Pre Mattel one, though it would be hard to find one in stellar condition.
