Sierra Comfort Preferred Portable Massage Table (Black), SC-501A

Got this for my wife's eye surgery. She had to spend a week face down. Table came well packaged in a cardboard box with a nylon carrying bag inside. It's easy to assemble. Only took a couple of minutes to open it up and screw in the lower metal support rods. Vinyl and wood materials are high quality. More than you would expect for the price. Padding is very comfortable. The face rest is included. Those can cost $50 alone for other products. I'm not sure on the weight limit, but it was able to easily handle my 195 lbs. When folded up and in the bag, it is about 4'x4'x0.3' feel like about 30lbs. Great investment for the surgery.

This is an inexpensive table that meets our needs. We were looking for something more portable than my 55 lb table and this fit the bill. You'll probably want to invest in a bolster or additional pillows of clients will be laying down longer then 30 minutes as the padding is not real dense. The table is very sturdy (I'm 240lbs) and you feel secure laying on it. It's the perfect size for the average sized woman or child, but larger/taller folks may have their feet hanging off the end. My wife does head work and usually sits at the head of the table where she can have easy access, and the table is tall enough that her knees don't hit the railing, which is a concern with many other tables which have cross braces all down the sides. The carry bag is nothing special and only has one small pocket for storing stuff, but we mostly wanted a case to protect the padding when putting in and taking out of the car.We picked this table because of the price and also because it qualified for free shipping. It arrived within a week after ordering.

I purchased the SierraComfort table a few weeks ago and have used it about a dozen times.The table is comfortable, sturdy, an excellent option for the price range ($120) and is one of the lightest portable Massage Tables I've ever carried.However, while adjusting the headrest during a Massage session, it disassembled completely at the joints after JUST TWO USES. Needless to say, it was an awkward moment and extremely embarrassing. I used pliers to temporarily and carefully reassemble the headrest (not easy) but it's not the same. The joints are no longer holding and the headrest continues to slowly dip while performing massages.The strap for the bag also broke while carrying the table, after only a dozen uses.That being said, I'm still very pleased with the table and it has not given me any issues, so far. I'll simply invest in purchasing a new, sturdier headrest and would recommend any potential buyer to do the same when ordering this product.UPDATE: Four years later, and after countless services with clients of different physiques, in different settings and environments, the table is still holding up well. Once it started to creak a little when performing services, but I took 10 mins to tighten all the screws and the creaking stopped. There’s a considerable amount of peeling of the fabric now, but that’s inevitable when handling a portable massage table a lot, especially if it’s made with PU leather and not quality vinyl. I eventually purchased a new bag for the table since both shoulder straps on the original bag finally tore way after about 3 years of use. I had to spend some time carrying the table using the shorter strap on the side.After so many clients have rested on the table, the top foam has lost some of its thickness and flattened a bit, especially near the edges where clients rest their arms. I can basically feel the edge of the wood at this point, with barely much foam/cushion over it. The table came with 2 thin, metal rods that the product manual instructs you to attach to reinforce the table’s sturdiness. As a mobile therapist, traveling around with two 36 inch metal rods and trying to attach and detach them every time I open and close the table was not something I planned to do. So I never used them. Four years later I haven’t had an issue.FINAL WORD: It’s a great table for the price (minus the headrest). It last me 4 good years. Now I intend to invest in a new table within a week, and this time with vinyl instead of PU leather, to avoid the eventual and inevitable peeling of the fabric. This table served me well for the cost. I most certainly earned my money back 1000x over.

My table just arrived today. It looks exactly like the picture. Very user friendly and not as heavy as I thought it would be (although I am not going to be running up the street carrying it). What came as a very pleasant surprise was how great it does look. The padding is excellent. The legs and supports look like they do in the picture and the whole table seems very sturdy. I laid on it and rolled over and jiggled a bit to see how wobbly it would be. That thing did not move. I had my husband lay on it and roll over and flip from one side to the other to see if he felt safe or felt as though the table would collapse or anything. He said it felt very sturdy and secure. The legs are adjustable so I can raise or lower the height of the table so that I am not bending too much over someone. I am 5' 8" so I want to be able to work on someone without straining my back. I should have no problem with this table. Easy to assemble and the carrying case is very attractive. I would definitely recommend this table.

I gave away my favorite table to a friend and so when the need returned for me to get another one I wasn't excited because I really liked the one I had before.. However I do like this table it's bigger than I thought I would want but it's a plus because now I don't need an arm/side rest; it wide and really cushioned for support, great table. I also like the curves edges I'm not really a fan of square tables since on occasion tables I've had in the past got nicks or small rips easily on the edges when you carry it around ..bump it against something etc..and I feel it adds a certain sophistication along with the function to the design, it's really attractive and for how sturdy it is ..the weight is not too bad, I feel I did good on this purchase I'm happy with it.

Soft, sturdy, good quality. Haven’t used it on anyone yet. I just set it up and laid on it myself. The head rest was not easy to adjust. I’m not sure if the lock function is messed up or if I’m not understanding correctly how to adjust but I had to man handle it to adjust it but it got the job done. I think the quality of the bed for the price point is really great.
