    • Step 1

      Research what type of tanning bed you want. Tanning beds differ in the number of lamps they contain, voltage and size. They also come in bed-shape and booth-shape, in which the person is standing while they tan.
    • Step 2

      Consult tanning bed catalogs to determine which bed is best for your home and budget. Depending on voltage, size and other factors, the price will vary. Most tanning beds cost approximately $2,000.


    • Step 3

      Measure the area in your home where you would like to place the tanning bed. Make sure that these measurements comply with the tanning bed you plan to purchase so you won't have any trouble installing the bed.
    • Step 4

      Purchase online or from a tanning bed manufacturing factory. There are numerous websites that offer home tanning beds for sale with a money back guarantee so there is no reason to fear an online purchase. Sites to consider include ESB Tans and Tanning Beds for less.
    • Step 5

      You can pay the full price with cash or credit, or ask for a finance plan that will allow you to pay off the amount over a period of a few months.
