What's the best massage table to buy??

[Djanti]

Hi Everyone!

I know there was just a post about this recently, but there weren't a lot of responses so I thought I'd throw this topic out there again. What are your recommendations for a new table? I'd love to hear pros and cons of many brands/models. I don't want to buy blindly and sometimes it's hard to see something (i.e. pros/cons)until you purchase it.

Thank you!!

Hi Sharon,

I had already read through all of those posts. Those were from 2-5 years ago and I figured there have been many new members since then with many more experiences/opinions. I was just looking for a little extra help with my (large) purchase!

Well, hopefully this brings it up where a lot of new members will post on those threads!

In general, it is better to "resurrect" old threads than to create new ones. This keeps related info all in the same place. It's easier for everyone to read through one thread than several. It's also easier to find one thread than several. And I'd bet there are already several that pertain to what you're asking.

The thread Sharon posted has a lot of answers! Three pages worth. And here are some other shorter threads:

I have an earthlite spirit LT and I like it a lot. It has started to creak a tiny bit on one corner (2 years old) which I am not digging, but I also haven't tried to remedy it yet. It is lightweight while still looking nice with a wood frame. I have always used earthlite and loved them, I think the regular Spirit would have been more sturdy and I don't travel much so it would have been fine for me. I like the Caress face cradle a lot. I got the reiki endpanels but I'm wondering if that is what is allowing it to creak?
