Wife loves the new Stamina Pilates reformer. Great upgrade from her 12 year old Stamina she's relied on. Only problem with the new one was the stand made quite the noise when she was rebounding. Discovered the frame was loose at all the connection points. Inserted rubber washers and the problem was solved. The tolerance on the frame fittings needs to be tightened up in the manufacturing process.
I haven’t been able to use this enough to rate it. I want to love this. I had high hopes for it. But my plantar fasciitis flared up. (Foot bar and maybe from bouncing too). I was hoping this would be great for it. I roll my feet on a foam roller and I stretch my calves 3 to 4 times per day. And ice when inflamed. I also see a podiatrist. It was healed until starting the Aeropilates reformer :(. I read somewhere that rebounding can help PF. I hope that is true. My piriformis muscle is also going into spasm (Maybe I just have to strengthen my core). I have been stretching my hip flexors a few times a day as well. I hope both get better so I can enjoy my reformer/rebounder and get a great work out without having pain after using it.

I did not know there were different models of the AeroPilates Premier Series 700. I received product 55-4700B which does not have the rope length adjustment loops on the sides of the platform. Other than that, everything else is the same and wonderful.
Have been going to a Pilates studio and wanted to something at home between studio sessions this machine certainly fills the requirements. Great quality for the price and easy to assemble.
Affordable, useful, not for daily or rigorous use.

The reformer is a good affordable option for home. I get the stretches I'm looking for and can certainly work my abs and arms. However the overall quality is a little low. I can to be careful with the reformer, make sure I use soft bounces otherwise the machine gets shaky and loud. The pulleys also make a lot of squeaky noises so if you want to speed up at all you really can't without again, the machine getting shaky and loud. I have to be a bit delicate and gentle with the machine.
Horrible. It broke after 3 times of use. And I’m only 100 lbs so it’s not a weight issue. Very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
