Although sunbeds may be slightly more expensive than buying the bits and
making your own looking at the new prices, you can pick them up second-hand
here for less than half the price it will cost you to make an equivalent unit.
If I had the space to store and use one I would do so. The only cheaper
exposure source is the sun.
With each skin cancer story in the newspapers another batch of secondhand
sunbeds comes on to the market!
