Rep Power: 0 | 25 thousand to invest in new beds what would you do? I plan to do some upgrading in my salon. I have $20 thousand to spend on beds the rest will have to go towards construction. We are a small town. I currently have 4 beds that are 20 minute laydown units with 28 hot bulbs. I would like to have a couple of new beds. Nobody charges more than $5 for a single session in our town. I would like to get above that with a couple of bronzing beds. A salesman tried to sell me some Dr. Kerns beds and Im afraid to invest in them. I understand that they are hard to keep cool. What would you recommend to upgrade. Also I wont be able to put the whole amount into one bed. Thanks Hoot Last edited by Hoot81; 04-25-2006 at 10:47 AM. |

Rep Power: 25 | Re: 25 thousand to invest in new beds what would you do? I would go with 3 35 lamp units and 1 35/3 Facial. Sell the facial unit at 1.00 more per session. Sounds as if in you area they won't pay alot to tan. Look into the Sonnenbraune 735's and 735/3. Great units and good quality. Yes I do sell them, but do a search on any equipment you are looking at. Sonnenbraune are somewhat on the pricey side but they are worth it. Easy maintenance and user friendley. Just my suggestion. Good luck in what ever you decide. Jeff |

Rep Power: 20 | Re: 25 thousand to invest in new beds what would you do? I have the StarPower 548 and only get 5.00 a visit or 45.00 a month unlimited in my area. That is expensive for here. Depends on your area from what I can tell. Wouldn't matter how much I paid for a bed (high pressure would be out of the question), they are only gonna pay here what they can afford. They do tan here more then the other places because I have the better equipment .
