Bad. In my opinion. I have only installed them and worked on them though. I do not own any. I think you get what you pay for. The people who owned the ones I worked on were CHEAP,CHEAP,CHEAP.

Soleil equipment is very well made tanning bed. They run efficiently and I have never had a single problem them. They have many different pieces to chose from and I think you will be satisfied. They not only look great, but they tan great as well! They come with a great warrenty if for some reason a problem were to arise.

We have three of their units and they tan very well. Ours came with Philips Cleo Professional lamps and we also got the dual sun lamps for the face and shoulders. I will probably leave out the dual suns on my next lamp change. I did alot of shopping around for these beds and found a great price on them. PM me and I'll send you the info.

They have 4" box fans which are a tramp to change out (and do not remove enough heat for 160W or higher. The top acrylic is a 2 man job to put back in.

Make sure you have at least 6" at the head and foot end of the bed, since you need to loosen the end caps to get the acrylic off.

They seem to be OK beds for the money. But only for the money! They don't compare to beds in the next price level like ERGO, UltraSun, Soltron, UWE, or even Tan America. IMHO!

They come with Philips lamps, but you can pay a little more to have Cosmolux instead. It is a great bed for under 6K. Obviously it is in a different bracket from Uwe, ERGO, Tan America and so on. But you will be satified with this unit!

Ramee, Are you referring to the home units by Soleil? Yes, i agree with the acrylic issue with the home units but not the commercial units. It is a pain to take the acrylics out of the home units, BUT the unit is a fine unit for the money home or commercial.
