i bought a large wooden salad bowl from sainsburys put a couple more coats of varnish on it so its completely waterproof. looks realy smart.

I have the Beverly Hills Footsie bath which is really lightweight and has disposable liners which is great for mobile when you can't sanitise the bowl properly between clients.

Thanks everybody brilliant ideas - just which to choose ?????????????

if you are near a branch of ikea, you could get one like mine. its a really big aluminium bowl and they are £10 i think. look smart, unbreakable and easy to keep clean. i give it a good scrub round with anti bacterial soap and spray with hard surface sanitiser when dry.

Beverley Hills Footspa for me, has been invaluable as most of my treatments last month have been pedicures. Retractable cord and disposable liners, and lightweight. xx

Funny I was just thinking about getting one of these today. My clients love my current footspa as it has whirlpool bubbles, vibration and heat. I am always very thorough at cleaning and disinfecting it but not matter how much I rinse it there are always more scrub grains appear from inside the jets. This worries me from a hygiene point of view but also that it may be blocking the machine.

Anyone point me in the direction of a stockist?

Thanks

at school we were using some plastic ones and we were putting theminside a plastic bag before putting the water in
is there anybody here doing the plastic bag thing??

I use a stainless steel bowl with hot stones in the bottom to retain the heat. I sit the bowl on a nice wooden plate.... looks wonderful, feels wonderful, and extremely easy to disinfect.

I'm about to. I'm looking for a Balinese style basket that I can line with a plastic bag.
