Solid, easy to setup and use. Back saver!
We have used this several times and it works really well for our lg. 75 lb. Golden doodle. I was nervous that it would be unstable but it sits solid on the ground. The floor of the tub provides good stability. It assembled quickly and without difficulty. The drain works well and has plenty of length to run directly to our floor drain. The neck harness keeps the dog from moving around and adjusts to different sizes. Compared to the groomers, it will pay for itself after a handful of times.

80 lb German Shepherd did great!
I NEVER review anything but this dog bath truly saved my back. My 80 pound rescue GSD is a bit aggressive with other dogs. Horrible experiences with mobile groomers so I needed to do it myself. I've tried before but unfortunately that bending over kills my back. Wasn't sure I could get him to cooperate but he did great getting up the stairs (NOT on the first try but he pulled it off!) This thing was very sturdy both the stairs and the basin - and I had it on landscaping rock, not even the patio. The drain worked great and when it gets clogged with hair, very simple to just pull out the hair and keep going. Very easy to assemble - 5 min, and folds up with the stairs attached and lives in the closet. This thing is fantastic for the price - less than $200! You won't be disappointed.

Convenient and secure!
I have 3 dogs- 45lb, 90 lb and 130 lb. 2 with long hair, and 1 with short hair. I’ve rigged up platforms in the bathtub prior to finding this product (small folding tables, stacked storage totes, etc). Anything to get them raised up enough that my back and knees were not crying out in pain after 5 minutes. The small folding table was a winner for a few bath rotations but the dogs never felt safe. They would shake and then the table would rattle and they thought death was imminent.I didn’t want to invest in a massive grooming tub and was surprised when I stumbled across this product last week. With my largest dog being 130 lbs, I knew he might be pushing the capacity. I set the tub up so half the tub is sitting in the actual bathtub- easy to run the drain right into the tub and having a water source right there was a no brainer. I started the baths out going smallest to largest. I wanted to gain confidence that my big boy wasn’t about to flatten it. He’s sensitive so if the tub fell, he would never go near something like this in the future.The tether is such an amazing addition. My 90lb girl will constantly try to turn around or move her feet to try to edge out. The tether kept her body from turning around. The high sides help them feel secure and keep most of the water inside. It was watertight- I did not experience any leaking at the drain hose. I used the pockets to grab the wads of hair that would clog up the drain- it’s awesome that I am able to intercept most of the hair before it gets to the tub’s drain. We have septic so I try to be realistic of what goes down the pipes. I love that it folds for storage. Definitely a winning product- wish I had found it years ago!The tub floor felt solid/ none of the dogs caused it to buckle. No shaky tub from them nervously shaking either! The floor space is tight so I can’t fairly review the stairs- I tried it with 45lb pup and ended up taking them off for the others. I lifted the big dogs front feet up and then lifted the back ends up. My back felt great after all 3 as well! Normally I would have to take pain meds to survive afterwards.

Wish it can be a bit bigger
This is very easy to use, now my dogs can get bath downstairs or outdoor easily. It's a great size for doggies below 65lbs in my opinion. My golden retriever itself will fill up the whole space and water very easy to leak outside. I use it very often, very durable, doggie can either stand or lay in it. Easy to set up and put down, fold perfectly to fit behind my door.

Back saver for washing a 50-lb goldendoodle!
UPDATE: I reviewed this after owning it for six months. I've come back to update this after using it now for almost a year and a half to say that I still love it. Definitely worth the price. I have set this thing up and folded it back many, many times and it is going strong. I 100% recommend, even if you want to put it in a small shower, as I did. See notes below; you don't need a huge bathtub setup to make this thing work. If you wash a dog often, buy this. Your back will thank you.I love this bathtub. I was worried about buying it, because I had a vision of trying to use it in a small shower that sits inside a very small bathroom. Meanwhile, every review/picture showed people setting this thing up outside or in a bathtub. But with just a bit of jockeying, this works great. I unfold it with one half/one set of the tub legs in the shower and the stairs side of the tub and stairs outside the shower. Then I just make sure the drainage hose (brilliant addition to this simple device that makes my vision work) is inside the shower and directed at the drain. Voila!My small bathroom plan might not work if I had a dog who fights the bath the whole time, because using it my goofy way requires turning the dog to face the front and the rear to wash different parts, rather than securing her to the built-in collar and being able to walk around the tub to get at different parts. My doodle HATES the bath, but can be cajoled up the stairs and urged to follow instructions to face different directions. Therefore, even in this tiny space, it is no problem for me to stand just to the side of the steps half of the tub to wash the dopeydoodle. The tub is also great for using the doggie hair dryer on her, because it's better for my back and easier to keep her contained than drying her just on the floor.I also thought this might be a pain to fold up and store inside the small shower or move it elsewhere for storage, but nope. Couldn't be easier for me to set up and take down.NOTE FOR TALL PEOPLE: If I had a magic wand, or the ear of the manufacturer, the one thing I would change would be to make it height adjustable. I'm a 5'9" woman, and this is a tad too short for me to use without bending. Still, it's far better than bending and washing her old school in a shower or tub and also better than buying a $1K pro tub that adjusts for height but also requires its own dedicated space.** No doodles were harmed in photographing this product, though her expression might lead you to believe otherwise.
