Four seasons is liquidating their beds. (UWE) You can get them super cheap right now.

They are no longer going to sell beds. That's all I know. I got a couple beds at really low prices! One was knocked off $6,000, the other was $14,000 off. These are all new beds. They are letting them go cheap to get rid of the inventory. From what I remember, Jeff (disty) said they wanted to get them out by the end of May. So, if anyone is considering this....call immediately. Ask for "Jeff in the bed department." That is how I reached him. (forgot his last name.)They are going for below cost.

What brand of beds do your competitors have?Whatever you do,get something different from them.I don't know about your area but every new salon that opens around here has ETS beds.It's easier to compete if you don't have the same exact thing.

Sonnenbraune all the way. Excellent units. They are true workhorses! SunCapsule excellent standups. ETS I consider throw away beds, throw away your money that is. Customers can tell the difference and they will tell you! Our competitor has ETS units. They are hurting and giving away tans. Talk to the customers and try all units, you will see the difference.

Suncapsules have more wind than anything else. Cramped and intimidating looking, my clients won't step into my Sundazzler because of Suncapsule scares.

ETS, in the past had horrible meltdown units, now that they don't make them themselves, they may be better. ~shrug~

Heartland units are very nice, most are not as fancyschmancy as UWE or Ergolines, but then not every market needs the hype.

I heard the conglomerate that bought 4 seasons out was miffed about the whole Ergoline/TW Tan situation and dumped them to pick up UWE. Then they decided to change their minds again and dump equipment all together. i think they felt betrayed by the tanning bed mfrs (maufacturers, not the other one)
