We buried my stepdad in one two years ago at his request. It was actually extremely well made, and humble, which is the way he wanted it.

They ain't exactly giving those away either. The "Monastic" style is the least expensive and it's $1,700 plus tax. The nicer one is $2,250 plus tax.

The people are great at St Joseph's Abbey and were easy to work with. I have no complaints about them. But the idea that you can get a cheap pine box from them for a couple of hundred bucks is not accurate. (For starters, they use cypress...)
