| Wonder wheeler? Just wondering everyone's take on the wonder wheeler. I have seen them at a couple of shows and they look very handy so I am considering ordering one and modifying a table top myself. Found one of the deluxe models for about $62 including shipping. I will be attending most days alone so it would help with carrying things but I don't want to purchase something that I won't use that often or is this money best spent on something else?

Mardel sells them with a grooming table on top that works nice. I wouldn't buy one from anyone else. She knows what you need because they modify so many. They can break very easy if you don't do them just right. Mardel - Grooming Tables, Ringside Tables, Carts and More! | |

| I went ahead and ordered the wonder wheeler deluxe since I found it for less than $60 with shipping! Elle I am cheap lol If I see that I am unable to fabricate a table top I will then order the one Mardel's sells before I ruin it.

| I have had a wonder wheeler form more than a year and can't dream of showing without one. I did HOWEVER buy mine from the people who fix them with a table. I had a freind who bought one off Amazom and it is NO way near the same size. The ones from Mar-Del are work horses. they can carry up to 150 pounds and I truely have tsted it. You will pay about $110 BUT you have a table that was built for it snd REALLY nice people who stand behind everything they sell. With this model you can put 2- 100 crates and still get the table on correctly, or you can use 2 xsmall wire cages. The little extra makes a huge difference, Trust me , my friend is so dissapointed she could cry and not anything she can do about it The table that these people & sell with them is JUST perfect. Very professional. I plan on buying another a putting it away as a backup! Sparklingbluyorkies.com |

I wouldn't buy one from any place else. MaryAnn delivers a quality product at prices with minimal mark up. | |

| I could not believe the difference in the size of the $60 one. It was so small you can only push and shove 1 crate on it, plus it doesn't come with the wonderful tote bag. It says it is the same as ours and we can't figure it out BUT HUGE HUGE difference. The other one of my friends doesn't even roll nice like the ones from MaryAnn. We had them sitting on their side next to each other and the one from Amazon is at least 6" smaller! Just too weird and sorry for the ones who get them I almost got one, thinking I wouldn't need another table, Thank heavens my friend made the mistake and not me. Sparklingbluyorkies.com |

| I don't think you will regret it. They are wonderful to have and mine was an absolute lifesaver this past weekend where I had 4 dogs ringside. Even used it to help bring the dogs in and out of the show and the hotel for 5 days...saved my back for sure!

| It showed up yesterday and it is nice! Very heavy duty and looks identical to the one on the Mardelin site. I haven't had time to do the table top (stupid transmission went out on my Honda... thank God for AAA) so I will just be using it to cart my stuff to the show today! Maybe I will have time to do something tonight when I get back home.

| So how is it working for you?? Can it hold 2 small crates? If so, where did you find it? I need some sort of cart. I have 2 pups (6months) that will begin their show career 1st week in Dec. and need something for them.

| I found it on Amazon dot com. It will hold them if they are stacked on top of one another. I haven't made the table top yet but got a good look at one while at the show.
