Champagne Tables uses 3/4" seven-plywood with water resistant glue for the platforms, the tops have a solid rubber surface with omni-directional texture for easy cleaning and stability for your animals. The rubber will not crack, fade, shrink, and most important the tops do not come unglued. The legs that are specially made for grooming tables are bolted on the platform with 1/4" hardware through the top, and the welds are all the way around the tubes. We also install rubber tips on the legs to prevent sliding on floors and they are more durable. We use highly durable vinyl edge trim for durability and good looks, and finally a handle for ease in transport.
