PURA Sunless

Hi everyone,

We have the pura sunless booth at our salon. At first we were loving it and lately there seems to be a new issue with it every week. Are tanners and getting streaked and coming out dripping wet pretty much with the solution . We have re calibrated the pumps several times, checked the heater etc. Does anyone else have the pura or heard about similar issues? When it works it works amazing! And the tech staff has been very helpful in fixing these issues, however its getting old constatly having something go wrong with it.

Thanks :)

I though they had an office in California? Can't they send someone out to fix it?

I remember having to do the same with the "Sunless Express Spray Spa". They had tech. guys coming in every week to fix, new parts in and out...until they came and picked it up and refunded the 30K.

That was the ETS unit. I remember that, wonder if any still exist.

I had seen one in my area on craigslist a few weeks/months back. Been so busy I can't remember how long ago, but it looked just like that picture.

Re: PURA Sunless

I am trying to finalize my order with Pura after the Nashville show.
Has the issues you have been experiencing been corrected yet?
If so how what was the issue with the unit?
Thanks in advance.

Re: PURA Sunless

Spray units are like tanning beds; the more bells and whistles you put on them, the more likely they are to break down and require maintenance. Like tanning beds, simpler is better, unless you have deep pockets.

Yes, they have worked the bugs out. I do not have one but have sprayed in one recently and spoke with the owner of the salon. Good unit, I would pick it over the Versa.

At this stage of the game as spray booths go, the pura is bullet proof. I am always concerned when new equipment is introduced. however with the pura all of the initial bugs have been worked out with all systems in the field and all of the pura models now easily set the standard for spray booths. While there are some great spray booths available, there none better than the pura. Before you make a spray booth decision or buy a used spray booth, take a close look at pura.

I only say that because unlike with UV equipment where you can make some great used equipment purchases, used spray booths especially models a few years old are loaded with bugs, that is why there are so many used spray booths, salons trade up to get rid of problematic spray booths.

In most cases a salon will have only one spray booth, you can't afford for it to be down or do anything less than provide a great spray tan .
