I'm currently looking at which beds i'm going be using in my salon. I am extremely interested in Ergoline. I have heard really good things about them and the beds are beautiful. Do you think it is best to stick with one manufactor or get mix it up? What are the advantages and disadvantages you have experienced? Any input on Ergoline and/or bed mixes would be greatly appreciated! Thanks you :)

Do a search on here about ergoline. You will get mixed reviews from people.

Overall, the looks of the units are great. They have the "wow" look. But performance is a little lacking compared to some other companies units for the same or even lesser priced models.

Do your homework and try as many different units as possible. If your in the NW US, or Canada, I can send you to a number of salons that have Sportarredo for you to try.

As far as keeping all the same or having different. That is up to you. If you buy all the same, you know have buying power with the dist. that your buying from and you should be able to get a better deal for that. But sometimes, not one manufacturer can give you exactly what you need for your salon mix. It all depends on what your looking for as far as equipment mix.

Very true.

Have you ever tanned in an Ergoline (any of the ones your considering buying?)

What beds does the competition in your area have? What size salon will you have? What is your marketing plan, including the most important part...how much will you charge for tanning at your salon? How much electrical service and a/c do you have? Lots of questions that need to be answered before you get to which manufacturer to go with.

I went with Prosun. I looked at Ergoline and ETS and am happy with my decision.

I have both ProSun and Dr. Mueller, love them both.

I have ergoline and love it. The equipment is the best. You have to take care of your equipment to get the best performance. You need to try the beds see what your competition has then you decide.

There are many excellent equipment companies, Be very concerned with customer support, also be very deliberate with equipment mix to properly support your marketing and price structure. Typically distributors and manufacturers are not concerned with your formula for success, they want to sell you as much high end equipment as possible instead of helping you determine the best equipment mix. This in no way has any barring on the quality of their equipment. No what your needs are before you start the equipment purchase process. You should have already determined your formula for success before you talk equipment.

I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ERGOLINE FOR A MONTH ON SOMETHING THEY SCREWED UP. IF YOU DO PURCHASE OFF OF ERGOLINE DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT DEAL WITH A MAN NAMED SCOTT. HE IGNORED ME FOR A MONTH, FIANALLY I HAD TO ASK FOR A DIFFERENT REPRESENTATIVE.
ASK FOR HEIDI, SHE IS SWEET AND WON'T MAKE YOU FEEL UNIMPORTANT IF YOU ARE A SALON WITH ONLY 6 BEDS.
