It is NOT the industrial strength machine you would get at a gym, but we are very happy with the capabilities of this machine for home use. It was not too difficult to put together. If you can only buy one exercise machine, this may be the one to get since you can do so many exercises on it.

Acetate for a home gym. It would be nice if you included the double straps instead of the gross fuzzy things. The carriage or sled of what ever arrived with a tear in the surface. Way too much styrofoam in the packaging.

First time user and I’m loving my machine. I look forward to my almost daily workouts, and within 2 weeks found myself more flexible. I can’t cross my legs yet but maybe in the months to come. I’m older, unfit, overweight and inflexible, but with the exercises being slow and controlled I can still use and enjoy this machine at my own pace. 👍

Why only black tension cords?

I bought this a month ago and the jury is still out on this. It's a bit clunky (maybe I put together incorrectly) and the reformer board is so long I cannot do the mermaid exercise with my knee up against the foam pads. Also, the DVD exercises and Youtube videos instruct changing tension cords and I only have the black tension cords all 24 lbs. On the good side it wasn't difficult to put together.

Hi Jeerco, Thank you for your feedback. We are glad it was easy to put together. If you feel you need a heavier or lighter cord you can order them by calling 1-800-375-7520 Monday-Thursday 7:30-5 or Friday 8-3 central. For the Mermaid exercise if your legs are shorter than the cushion you can put a pillow in front of the foam rolls to help move your body further down the cushion. Please feel free to call the number above if you have any questions. We look forward to assisting you!

I purchased this reformer after going through PT, in which a reformer was used. I am very happy with my reformer, along with the Stamina videos on demand that I have purchased.

I have been a Physical Therapist for over 40 years so my back is shot but I need to stay in shape and strong for my work in a hospital. I am tired of gyms and the time they take out of my day but my back does not like my standing when using my free weights at home. This Pilates machine has been an answer to prayer: easy to use and as I can lay down for many exercises and sit for some I find it fantastic. It helps to be somewhat agile and have a general knowledge on exercises so I can work all muscle groups at various angles . Unlike rubber bands the resistance seems to remain even throughout the movement. This is my first time using a Pilates machine and again I love it. I am focusing on toning so do 20 reps continuously per exercise . Perhaps I should do a video to demonstrate the great variety of exercise I can do. I do single leg squats for max benefit as I am quite strong and this allows great workout. I can go on but I need to stop. Strongly recommend this machine for home use.
