I am in the process of opening a salon. I would like input of the best entry level, mid level and hi level beds.

This could vary as much as brands of cars. I personally recommend Sundash 232's for base beds, great workhorses, little maintainance and great results. Middle, you could go Sundash 240G's or maybe Viper 160 Watt VHR, and then Hi-Pressure, I like Ultrabronz or Matrix. You could leave out the Hi-pressure and just go VHR if you wanted to. Many variables to consider.

Thanks for responding.
I am looking the Sundash beds for my entry and mid level and Ergoline 600 for my hi level. I am also looking at Puretan. I have read a little about UWE but I don't know much about that brand. I don't know of any salon that has UWE around my area.

The Ergoline are a little pricey but worth it for sure. I use all Sundash/Ergoline and it helped me blow the competition here out of the water.

I have Tan America Milleniums, Santa Barbaras, VIPs, and Matrix in my salon, and they are great. My customers love them. (well, the Matrix is on it's way, but Ive tried it and liked it)

I think it really depends on the location of where u put your salon, as far as what beds are good. Around here ergoline have bad a bad rep because all the salons that r around have them and don't change bulbs or keep them up... It seems every1 that has Tan America does well and has a great reputtion.
