LARGE VHR VS. HIGH PRESSURE

HOT STUFF · 09-26-2006, 10:17 PM

Anyone out there that has a large vhr like the Sungate or the S Class or other beds in their class and a high pressure bed, does the big vhr get used enough
to make the large vhr worth the investment?

The salon that I have now has high pressure but does not have a big vhr bed.
We have a medium vhr but not one in the class of one of the big ones.
What I am afraid of is that the big vhr may get lost with the high pressure taking
the majority of the bucks.

What I would like to know from some of you that have the experience with both in your salon, would you have both or one or the other.
My fear is that the 30,000 and more vhr will not get used enough to make it worth it. The high pressure is going to be around $32 walk in vs. around $24 walk in for the vhr._________________:glasses:

It will get used.

You should still get the usage on the unit.

I have a Cayenne and a SunboardXTT. I have replaced the lamps in the SunboardXTT and is almost due for another. I change the Sunboard at 400 hours. The Cayenne is changed at 500. I have not had to change the Cayenne yet,..74 more hours to go for the first lamp change.

Good unit, do you like it?

I have had it since Jan and my customer's love it. Wouldn't trade it for any other HP out there.

We have the Matrix L33 and a THP 24/24....both higher end units. The Matrix sold the heck out of the THP for the first 8 months. Now the THP does quite well. Still can't keep up with the matrix though. Also something to think of is max time to tan. The customers sometimes do the THP just because it's a 10 min tan and they are in a hurry. It might help to buy a VHR that the max tan is 10 mins or less. Not sure what the max tan time is in the magic.

The max time on the Magic is 12 minutes.
