Aluminium Pilates Reformer,Pilates Reformer Equipment with Reformer Accessories, Reformer Box, Padded Jump Board, Reformer Pilates Machine for Home Workouts

I was really nervous about buying this reformer since there weren’t many reviews, but I decided to take the gamble—and I’m so glad I did! I’ve been using it almost every day for the past 5 months and it’s been amazing. The reformer has everything I need, and the springs work perfectly—just as smooth and strong as the ones I’ve used on more expensive brands like Merrithew, Balanced Body, and Peak Pilates at the studios I used to go to. For the price, this reformer is honestly such a great value. I’m genuinely surprised (in the best way) and super pleased with the quality. I wanted to leave this review in case it helps someone else who’s on the fence like I was!

This is an excellent machine! The glide is very smooth. Everything came in great condition!

Just got and so far it is pretty terrific works just like the studios high end reformer its smooth quiet. the wood had a few dings in it but honestly where they are I am not able to rebox this and send it back it took 3 of us to get this in the door and unpacked, That was the hardest part it was 90% put together. Super excited to get going full speed on this I have been taking it for short test runs to be sure I have everything in place and tightened.

The media could not be loaded. I have been using balanced body allegro reformer for Pilates for many years. I was worried how this would match up but it surpassed my hopes! It is smooth, quiet, well made and a great deal compared to the more expensive competitors. Leg bar is solid and adjusts easily, straps are well made soft fabric that seem to be durable. I train clients in my home and this is a fantastic addition to my fitness collection! Item arrived in a giant wooden crate with frame fully assembled. I was able to remove it from the crate and fit in down the stairs and finish assembly of the poles with pulley and straps. What a great product!!!!

I was considering the Balanced Body Allegro 2 with leg extenders, jump board, and box ($5,500), but ultimately chose this one during a sale for less than half the cost. It came with both the box and jump board, making it a great value. It was almost $1800 when I bought it.Overall, I’m very happy with it—it’s extremely sturdy. My only small gripe is that it doesn’t have separate pegs for the straps, but I added some DIY hooks, and they work perfectly. For reference, the Allegro 2 also doesn’t have separate pegs, so that upgrade wouldn’t have solved the issue either.Also the shoulder pegs get loose/wobbly after 2-3 work outs and I have to tighten more than I would like, but still not worth $2-3k more in cost.It was pretty much put together when it arrived just had to pop on the springs and run the straps through the holder. Pleasantly surprised.If budget weren’t a concern, I’d recommend the Balanced Body. But as my first at-home reformer—and since I wasn’t sure how much I’d use it—it’s been a fantastic option. I’m using it 3-4 times a week and much happier than sitting on the Club Pilates waitlist!

Updated review: I am reducing this to 2 stars. Although this product comes with a 1 year warranty, I have been waiting four weeks for a couple of screws and nuts for the pulley system. The reformer straps are unusable without this replacement part. I reached out to inquire about the status and was told it was stuck in customs. I then asked for the tracking info so I could follow along without asking every week. The seller told me they would get me the tracking info when the shipment was ready. I’m confused as to whether the part has been sent or not.Original review: I have had problems with my knees for years and stumbled upon Pilates as a form of rehabilitation. It’s the only thing that has brought long-term relief. Therefore, when my new home had space for a workout area, I wanted to get a reformer to use at my convenience. I would have liked a higher end model but needed to be conscious of my budget.I came across this product which was on sale for Black Friday and decided to take a chance.With the one-month shipping time, I was in the middle of moving when it arrived and had to put it in storage so I wasn’t able to assemble and use it right away.Fast forward to 2.5 months later and I’m disappointed because I haven’t been able to use it yet. The instructions were confusing and include steps that don’t actually need to be done. The steps that you DO need to follow to set it up aren’t clear and at times you’re guessing. Example: tie the rope in a tie. Looking at the pictures, I am assuming they meant a knot. We had a very hard time getting the rope pulley poles installed because the holes would not line up. It’s hard to see in the pictures but the plastic insert won’t sit flush against the carriage. If it does, we can’t get the holes to line up to insert the pin.There’s also no instructions for steps to make sure the ropes are the correct length for your size. Therefore for an amateur like me, I’m guessing at where I need to position and tie things off to make it work for my rehab. Based on the little bit of Pilates I’ve done, I pulled the ropes through the cams to where I think they should be. I’ll create another knot at this length. Picture included.But the worst part is getting through all this to a place where I was going to be able to use it regularly when something snapped and one of the ropes went slack. The pulley system popped off and the nuts came loose from the pulley bolts. Of course there is no wrench provided for nuts this small so I haven’t been able to fix this yet and my reformer is unusable until I do. I really hope I’m able to secure the pulley system; I’m probably going to remove one washer on each bolt (there are two per bolt for some reason) and hopefully that will keep it more secure.Lastly, I’ve not used a reformer that has two handles per rope so it’ll be an adjustment to get used to. They’re very comfortable and soft however.
