How To Choose A Second Hand Massage Table

Here at Massage Warehouse, we get several calls and emails every week from people looking to purchase a second hand massage table.


Unfortunately for these people, most massage table retailers, ourselves included, don’t stock second hand massage tables. In our case, this is for two reasons:


  1. We cannot guarantee the quality of the table. 

It may well have been put through its paces with its previous owner, and may therefore reach you in subpar condition. We would never want to sell an inferior product, as it puts our customers - and their customers - at risk.


  1. Providing a competitive warranty is non-negotiable. 

All the tables stocked here at Massage Warehouse come with impressive warranties. This protects you in the event that something goes wrong with your table, and it also gives you confidence in making such an important purchase online.


So what to do if you need an inexpensive table that still provides a great experience to your clients?


While we do offer a variety of very inexpensive tables, there is an alternative to second hand massage tables you may not have come across previously.


As in any industry, we have days when things go wrong. Tables are occasionally delivered to the customer having been damaged in transit, or mishandled by the courier. While the damage is usually only cosmetic, we will always replace the table if the customer asks.


This leaves us with a small stock of high-quality tables that are in perfect working condition, but that have small superficial blemishes.


Damage as small as a tiny tear in the upholstery or a faint imprint on the cushion from something heavy being laid on it, can mean that these tables - otherwise 100% perfect - never see any use.


We call these ‘B-Grade’ tables and offer them at reduced prices on our website.


Instead of taking the risk of a second hand massage table, why not find out more about our B-Grade tables?


They are covered by warranty, just as all our other tables are, and can be the perfect intersection of quality and value you were searching for.
