Costs that are easy to miss

  • Replacement suits. The suit wears out before the electronics. Check the suit warranty: it ranges from the “first 100 uses” to one year.
  • Return fees. SQAI charges a $450 restocking fee. TitanBody buyers pay return shipping. OHM charges $49.
  • Second users. A second suit for a partner costs far less than a second system. Visionbody’s two-suit package is $2,390.

Professional systems

miha bodytec, XBody and E-Fit do not publish prices. They sell by quote, often with financing. Visionbody Pro is the exception, with a public rental model from $490 a month.

Compared with studio sessions

Studio chains charge per session or by monthly membership, and prices vary by location. Third-party sources put a coached session at roughly $30 to $80. At one session a week, a year in a studio costs about as much as buying a home suit. What you get for that money is supervision. See home vs studio.
