are there any good stand up machines?

I have suncapsules in my salon, and I know they are good tanners, but they are the ugliest, cheap looking machines. Are any of the other standups such as Prosun V-series, KBL pure energy, Ultrasun i-series any good??

Hard to beat the tan of a Suncapsule. What models do you have?

Re: are there any good stand up machines?

We used to have a Suncapsule, now we have a KBL Pure Energy standup. The KBL blows the doors off the Suncapsule!

The Ergoline Sunrise looks nice too, the Sunrise has to be in a room as it has openings where the panels meet. (you can see inside the unit from the outside) I think a standup should always be in a room though.

UWE has the new iDome, I haven't seen one in person, but it looks to be a beast of a standup. It's also twice as much as a KBL, Ergoline or Suncapsule.

I have two custom 55 x 200W systems. They do tan well, but it just doesnt look like modern day equipment.

The KBL pure energy looks really nice, but Ive heard somewhere that it doesnt tan well because there is so much space inside. Im gonna have to check out the Sunrise..

Re: are there any good stand up machines?

I have a Saturn 360, 2 KBL Pure Energy & a KBL SPACE 2000.

All excellent depending on how much power you want. All 3 models get you very dark:-)

They are all very roomy so that has attracted a more "full figured" client to my salon that often complain about other salons beds not accommodating their size/weight. $$$$CHA-CHING

My clients love all 3.

The older suncapsules like the 200 VHR perfect ten is a sick machine
