Pretty happy with this! It definitely made bath time easier for me and my four chihuahuas. It was a little messier than I thought but that's probably because I'm not used to it. I had to mop up the floor afterward. My dogs look, feel, and smell great!!

I thought my fellow dogs would appreciate a review from the actual bathee. (Yes, bathee is a dog word.) I've been bathed in showers, tubs, lakes, pools and rivers. I have sensitive skin, which is why my people don't get my hair cut. I'm a shaggy mutt with a humble air and a fear of certain loud noises ( fireworks and thunder); however vacuums don't bug me and I absolutely love a good blow- dry. So the vacuum- like noise of this machine is not a problem for this dog. I had my first bark bath today, given by the alpha female, J. J had trouble with the little screw that holds the hose holder in place. She almost stripped the head just screwing it on. " they need better screws, Maxie" she told me. Down went half a ratings star. She got it assembled and filled it, got it primed, called me over ( we were in the garage) and had me stand on a folded up blanket. Then she basically wet- vacuumed me. The shampoo came out just fine, the rinse worked just fine. But really, there was no great way to wash my head and feet. I'm very particular about my feet, and the hard plastic on them, even a very light touch, made me very nervous. Down went half a star. (I'd rather have them scrubbed by hand.) And I did go off twice to shake, but to be honest, there wasn't a lot of water to shake off. All in all, J told me she thinks it's a good tool for a fast bath. She does plan to remove the end piece of the vacuum tool in order to get deeper into my fur. I do look very handsome after the bath, so that's a big plus. Next bath, J says, will be outdoors. (And yes, that is my beloved Mr Bill toy on the lawn-- purchased on Amazon.)

I have a 80+ pound Golden Retriever who normally goes to the groomer every 4-5 weeks. Because he needs his nails trimmed and feet hair cut I don't expect this product will replace trips to the groomer but will definitely let me stretch out the time between appointments and save me money in the long run. It's easy to set up and get ready to use -ready to go within minutes. The tanks are easy to fill and the shampoo smells good/clean. The spray gets right down to the skin and is immediately suctioned right back up into a separate tank. It's amazing how dirty the water is even though he's been to the groomer only a few weeks ago. Clean up is a breeze and any wet hair that is pulled out gets caught in the screen. When it's over he's definitely less wet than a full bath and the big bonus is I don't have to clean a bathroom after using the Bark Bath. I can see using this product every couple weeks or for those emergency times when he rolls in something gross smelling outside. I would definitely recommend this to anyone with a medium to large dog that is comfortable with the noise level.

Love this! I have a lab and a great dane/english mastiff who both hate baths, not to mention it's a pain to bathe them due to their size. This was quick, easy, and left them smelling fresh. They both are scared of the vacuum, but this didn't seem to bother either of them. They both seemed to enjoy it.

I freaking love this machine! I have a very difficult time bathing my 3 Great Danes and Boxer. All of my dogs hate the vacuum, but the BarkBath didn't bother them at all (if you have Danes you know they are terrified of everything haha). I let them all smell it and ran the cleaner over them before I turned it on. Two of my Danes are mortified by loud noises so I was pretty nervous that this wouldn't work, but both of them stood there while I bathed them. They each only took 5 minutes to completely bathe and it only took me one tank of water for both (the description says that this will bathe a dog up to 70 lbs, but my Danes are 250 lbs combined). The BarkBath is going to be a life savor for me! I recommend this to anyone!
