How to Buy a Home Tanning Bed
This
webpage is
intended to give
you advice on
buying the best
home tanning bed
you can afford. The indoor tanning industry has evolved,
or should I say
de-evolved, with
the pressures of O'Bama Care's
10% tan tax and
the fact that
the WHO placed
the sun and
indoor tanning
UV bulbs on the
known
carcinogen's
list. You
can now buy
tanning beds for
a dime a dozen,
or cheaper.
But which brand
or model is
the
best new or used
tanning bed to
buy for your
personal use?
There have been
many tanning bed
manufacturers
who have gone
out of business
in the past few
years making
parts and
supplies more
difficult to
find.
Additionally,
when you buy a
used bed you
must consider
the cost of
replacement
lamps ($295),
acrylics ($299),
shocks ($139)
so even
a "free" tanning
bed could cost
over $700 to
bring up to
standards.
When you do
replace these
items, however,
you can expect
your tanning bed
to last over 7
years in a home
environment.
We will guide
anyone through
buying a
used tanning bed
and replacing
the necessary
items by
calling
800-667-9189 .
You do not have
to buy the bed
or parts from us
to take
advantage of
this service.
We believe the
best home
tanning beds are
made by American
Quality
Manufacturing
in Cocoa,
Florida because
of the all-steel
and
powder-coated
design and the
25 year old
company is still
providing parts
and supplies.
Option #1 for
those on a low
budget: With
the bad
publicity for
indoor tanning,
coupled with the
new tanning tax,
many
full-service
tanning salons
have closed
their doors
flooding
warehouses
across the USA
with
used
tanning beds.
This means
you
can now buy a
commercial model
with 32 or more
lamps for your home
for about $400
to $800, way
less than the
cheap plastic
home tanning
beds made of
plastic and
holding 16-24
bulbs. The
positive side of
this method is
you can buy a
really expensive
tanning bed
costing $5,000
to $10,000 for
less than $1,000
but you have to
go and pick it up
bring it home.
Then, when you
get this used
commercial
tanning bed
home, you need
to hope it works
and all the
parts are there
(if you buy it
from a warehouse
there will be no
guarantees it
will work).
If you recently
bought a
commercial
tanning bed for
your home and it
will not turn
on, you may need
a
magic jumper
wire we sell
here.
Finally, you
will need to
inspect the
tanning
lamps ($295),
acrylics ($299),
shocks ($139)
for proper
operation and
consider the
cost of
replacing them.
Keep in mind,
many bed
manufacturers
have ceased
operations in
the US because
of the new laws
coming down the
line from the
FDA regarding
indoor tanning
devices.
Keep in mind,
however, that UV
light is
absolutely
essential to
human survival
and has proven
to stimulate
cell growth and
cure diseases
such as SAD and
skin borne
ailments.

Option #2 is buy
a new bed for
$2k to $3k:
If
you
can
afford a
brand new
tanning bed that
has not been
used before then
strongly
consider an all-steel
model with a
lifetime
guarantee for
about $2,000
located here.
When you compare
all-steel beds
to the plastic
beds you may buy
for only a few
hundred dollars
cheaper, the
steel beds win
every time.
After
several years,
the
powder-coated
finished beds
can shine like
new where as the
plastic models
just fade, crack
and weaken (see
photo above).
If
you are on a
budget, then you
should go to
eBay or
Craigslist and
find the
bargains for
less than
$1,000, but be
prepared to
bring a truck
and some strong
guys with
mechanical
knowledge and
try to inspect
the bed for
proper operation
before buying
it. Save
yourself much
heart ache and
trouble when
buying a new
home tanning
bed. Click
