Tattoo Chair/bed - Any Ideas or Recommendations?

[WilD]

Hi all,

Am considering my clients now (wey hey.... Steady!)

I don't have a chair or bed that will be suitable for people to sit/lie on for any length of time while I am tattooing, so think I now need to consider a new addition to my 'kit'. Have seen this on amazon as an example.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/PROFESSIONA...JUSTABLE/dp/B003Z8YOSI/ref=pd_cp_beauty_3_img
Supposedly it will take up to 36 stone (hopefully never need to worry about anywhere near that) the back adjusts and I like the idea it's portable.
Any thoughts/ better ideas/recommendations?
My biggest prob is that I am only tiny, so I have to consider being able to reach say the middle of a large back piece. Barbers type chair may be too high/prohibitive for me?

hi Dawn the bed in the link is exactly the same as i bought a cuple of months ago
its really strong and well made
dont worry too mutch about not being able to reach as the legs are hight ajustable
bin using it for a cuple of months and it does make things a hell of a lot easyer and i dont hurt my back bending to tattoo now (ive ajusted the legs to their highest as im 6ft3)
shop around though i got mine brand new off ebay for *£35 including postage

Easy Tiger,lol......yep,one of those would be perfect (i have one very similar) also,the swivel office chairs are a great bit of kit,i have two of them...the one i sit on,i have removed the back rest,so it's now a portable stool...i have reupholstered them both in black fake leather,so they can be wiped down,(you can sit the client so they are leaning on the backrest for doing the middle of a back piece) You should also think about getting an arm rest.Plus with the office chairs you can raise & lower the client & yourself to get the right position,& they aren't as big & bulky as a barbers chair........Hope this helps.

This is the one i have got. Very much like the one you linked to, but much lighter, and nice rounded edges. Oh, and only *£89.99 including delivery.
Really really good buy.

Cheers Claire - like the look of that v much! has metal legs too - wasn't sure about wooden ones - thought I'd have to paint them to comply with regs! :thumbsup:

It really is good quality, and comfortable.
The free covers are a bit crappy, but cant really use them anyway, because they are material.

Good price int it for what it is?
