| Help me decide on a grooming table! I keep going back and forth! I've been looking for ages and it's time to make a decision but I keep going back and forth.... Which one would you choose and why? Help! I like this one but am afraid it's a bit large and at 25lbs would really be too big to cart around to shows and I'm afraid it might be too big. New Large Adjustable Pet Grooming Table w/Arm/Noose - eBay (item 250633178250 end time May-17-10 14:59:24 PDT) And I like this one but still wouldn't be able to use it at show really unless I put it on top of a cart or on top of my ringside table. But I'm also not sure if it's just too small and not as well made? But being so small, I could just put it on a folding table in my basement or on my dresser or wherever I wanted to use it at the time so it had the benefit of giving me some options in that regard. Master Equipment Small Pet Grooming Table - Pink Top - eBay (item 380229016002 end time May-29-10 05:45:21 PDT) I have such a hard time sometimes making a decision at least a decision within my budget. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I've got one of both styles, only my oblong table is 30" long, not 36". I like them both for different reasons. The small round one is great if I want to groom in my kitchen, or out on the patio. But, I use the oblong table more often, in the grooming room. I wouldn't think the round one wouldn't be what you wanted at shows, bc you would still need a table to set it on. May as well get the oblong one and a cart, bc with shows you'll still have your tack box and other things you're carrying around anyway.

| I have the small pink one and I really like it. It works great for home use and very compact and portable.

I have one that looks like the upper one. If it's the taller one, it's my favorite. But 25 lbs sounds heavier than mine. Think I have a Midwest. Being tall it's easier on the back. Mardel makes a smaller lighter one, many to chose from. Great for at home too if you are starting out. The lower one-It doesn't look like you can get to one side easily and you will still need a table to put it on. Just not big enough. IMO. It's good to have the grooming arm, but you may not need it. I have a ring side table that is smaller than the upper one and much lighter. The one like the smaller one from from Mardel I mentioned above. | |

| I have the little pink one also and I love it. I have seen some people use it at shows, but it they had it on another table. We have taken a little fold up table like the one in the link here. Wal-Mart has one like it for about $15.00. It doesn't have an arm, but it's lightweight, portable and reasonably priced. I cut a Rubbermaid sink liner to the size of the table so they wont slip and it worked fine. Realspace Molded Plastic Top Folding Table 25 28 H x 26 W x 18 D Gray Granite by Office Depot

| I have the pink one and it works great for Bella. Since I have a limited space at home I needed something fairly compact and this does the trick. I would also purchase it from Petedge. That is where I purchased mine and it was only $38.00.

YT 1000 Club Member | Theresa, If your hubby is handy like mine he can put wheels on the first table for you and it would be alot easier carting it around at shows plus you could cart everything one it including your crate. The other one is great for home use.

| Oh! Great idea! He is handy. Don't you have one on a wonder wheelie too? I keep thinking of that idea too - it's so clever! |

YT 1000 Club Member | Yep I got one of those too. I think that was the first thing I got then I got the 2 grooming tables. One is a smaller one and I had my hubby put the wheels one and I have a larger grooming table that is set up in my basement.
