I started to groom my dogs at home and needed something better than trying to do this task on an outdoor patio table. The table is very sturdy and a nice height. Very easy to put together out of the box. Just open the legs of the table and attach the arm to the side of the table. The neck leash is ok and worked but not the best. This part could use improvement. The top of the table has a slip resistance top, so the dog feels more secure and does not slip around. It is not too heavy so very easy to fold away when not in use and bring out when needed. I found it very easy to groom the dog on this table. It made the grooming session much less stressful for my dogs and made the session much easier and quicker for me. I would recommend this table for the novice groomer to the professional groomer.
