I'm trying to decide between the Ergo 300 and the Comp. 232 line for my mid priced beds. Can anyone with experience help me out?

We went with (1) Competition 232G and (3) Competition 232GS and haven't had a problem with them.

I have 7 15 min 232gsf as my level 1 beds and 3 erg 300 as my level 2 beds and the 232's seem to hit the clients hard, the 300's are more browning beds and are good for clients that burn easily, I think you get a better tan from the 300 and I use it over the 232, but I prefer the 600 because it is the best bed made.

I am not real familiar with all the specs on the 232. But I do have 4 of the 300's (just installed 2 weeks ago). I have them as my Level 2 beds. My base bed is a 100watt 32 lamp bed. The 300 warrants an upgrade for several reasons: 41 Lamps total - Including 3 400w adjustable facials. The body of the bed has Reflective lamps that give 30-40% more tanning over a non-reflective lamp. The contoured acrylic can help alleviate some pressure points. We charge $3 -$4 more per session with the 300. The only bad thing I can say about this bed, is that it is a bit on the narrow side.

Not just a bit on the narrow side but a bit hot too. The 300 and the 32 are two differnt tanning machines. The 32 being a stimulating and the 300 a browning. Great results if you alternate between the two for those who just will not upgrade. $3.00 for the 32`s n/facials and $5.00 for the 300 w/facials. I have the 600 and the orbit 2. Orbit blows the 600 away.

Frankie,
$3 for a 232 visit? I wouldn't let them tan in my dumpster for $3. I charge $7 for the 232 w/facials. I charge $5 for 424 (24 lamp) w/o facials.

If you are buying a 232 or 300 for a base bed, keep it simple and buy the 232 w/o facials. The 232 is a workhorse and requires little maintenance. Regarding the Ergo 300, are you aware that you must buy a buck booster to boost the current for each bed? If I remember correctly the 300 needs to be running a 230v. This will add several $100 to the cost of each bed. Even more reason to buy a 232.

Well sorry I don`t have any dumpster so I guess I will continue to let them tan for $3.00 with a membership. I don`t have any 24 lamp beds in any of my salons. I dumped them years ago. What are you walk in prices for these beds?? What is your monthly charge for these beds that you are charging $5.00 and 7.00 for?? I charge $29.95 a month and my bed charges are 3.00, 5.00 8.00, 10.00. 14.00, and 20.00. Non member prices are higher. Maybe I am in the wrong town??
