SUNNTAN · 08-13-2002, 08:21 AM

Would like your opinions on the new Sunergoline beds if you think there the best beds out right now. If not then what kind of beds are the best

i'm replaying to my own question just wondering how the
CL 300
Classic 450
Avantgarde 600 would measure up against a few tan america beds

Read my post about the sunergoline 600. We have no complaints so far this bed really is great the best I have tried so far anyway.

If you are going to get a 600 do not get a 450. The tans they produce are very similar.
People will pay less for the 450 & get the same tan as the 600.

They are well built beds.

we just want to give our clients a variety of beds to choose from were thinking of going w/ just a big bed stand-up and our base level's but have a more powerful base level than everyone in the area w/ facials and 160's all the way around or do you think we should have a better selection for them to pick from and still have a higher base level bed. But the only downfall is they won't be more inclinded to go into bigger beds if they get a good tan in the base level

I would keep your base beds very basic. They need to tan well but give your cliets a reason to upgrade.

I think the more selection the better. Are you only considering buying sunErgoline beds ....

A agree that you want good solid base beds to start em' out with. They need to be real workhorses, metal construction, easy to maintain etc. Since they will be the entry level bed, you won't want to spend a fortune on them. I also believe a variety of types (brands) is a good idea. This adds a personal touch to the tan. Each client has different things they like about a bed. Some like the flat clamshell, some like the high rounded top. I would not go with a bed of plastic construction. I've been there, done that, and have ended up eliminating all of them.

You do want to offer 3 levels of tanning if possible. You want your upgrade bed to be different enough, that the customer will pay a little more for it. I suggest going to a 10-12 minute bed for this. They can see the obvious difference in the time element if they are "on the go". For the top level, I would offer standup tanning or a high pressure system of some type.
I personally like the following brands of equipment. Sontegra, Dr. Mueller, Puretan, Suncapsule, Dr. Kern., Tanses, Sunsource,and Sundash.

How does SunErgoline always find the people that have no idea whats going on. They sale them 150k worth of equipment and then it gets repod.

SUNNTAN · 08-13-2002, 01:07 PM

well after hearing all of the responses and everyones thoughts about the SunErgoline equipment basicly all I wanted to know is what line of beds do you think will perform better Tan America or SunErgoline the only downfall w/ Tan America is there closer and kinda smaller so bigger people are going to have a harder time w/ the bed.

We have the ergoline and sundash beds. The 32 lamp 20 minute beds are good basic beds that have a very loyal following. The 600 is great! Our most popular beds however are the 240G's. They were so busy we had to buy another one only 6 weeks after opening!

I have their Radius (standup) as well and am not that impressed with it. We are looking at replacing it this fall. We will look at their new standup as well as other brands.

Our competition has puretan beds, another has ETS. We have all opened this year...too soon to tell who is ahead of the game.

As for customer service, it is GREAT!! Our rep is a great guy who has gone beyond the call of duty to insure that we are taken care of.
