Re: Going with KBL beds - input anyone?

We are in California. And yeah what Brian said about the Spa and HP. You can still do a spa like buildout, just dont bother wasting money on the spa stuff.

My HP of choice right now would be the Matrix L28 DEC. It rocks!

Brian, on a side note the newer 3500s are very easy to get into and work on. just tough to clean the top acrylic.

Well if they made a change from the past couple of years they had click strips similar to what was found on Pro Sun and Sport Holiday beds that you flipped up and they were a PIA to deal with.

They still have click strips (I guess thats what it's called) on the top but they re-did them, super easy to work with now. Turn 2 screws and push on the strip and it pops down and you can get to the acrylics.

Re: Going with KBL beds - input anyone?

Kari, the KBL beds are great. Look awesome, easy to work on/maintain, and tan great. I put in 6 3500 Ultras in mid-August and am very pleased. Plus, Chris, Jeff, and Jason at KBL America are great to work with, say what they mean and do what they say. When it comes time to replace my higher end beds, we will be going with the KBL 6800 or 7800.

Re: Going with KBL beds - input anyone?

Past two years I have added KBL to my store, great products!! Competitor has Ergoline and KBL was the most logical choice after visiting St.Louis and seeing the beds in person and also tanning in them. Limited issues with beds thus far fyi.
