Tanses makes a very good bed if you get it at the right price,the problem I see with the beds is the cooling,they use a gob of little muffin fans which don't build up very much pressure they would be better off using less fans by a factor of 3 and using a fan that can build up pressure,you would have less area of breakdown and you would get better cooling.Also their electronics tray needs to be split in half and on rollers have you ever tried to lift a 52 or 44 ballast tray it will kill you.I have these beds and will buy them again but these engineering changes need to be looked at.i have not had the acrylic problem but the bed needs to have the time increased on it to 12 minutes,if you use the time of 7 or 8 minutes it is just not enough,we have talked about this with DON before and its funny how two different beds with the same configuration and lamps and one has 7 minute max time and the other 12 to 15 minute max time,just a thought it might be marketing.
