Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Pilates Reformer?
A Pilates Reformer is a form of exercise equipment, consisting of springs, pulleys, ropes, a bed like a frame, and a carriage which then slides along the frame. Using a Reformer Machine allows participants to isolate and tone muscle groups through a low impact workout.
What is the Difference Between a Home Pilates Reformer or Commercial Pilates Reformer?
As a first step, we always direct customers to visit our Pilates Reformer Comparison Table available on our website. Apart from a few mechanical/functional differences, choosing between a home or commercial model reformer ultimately comes down to cost, space, and level of usage.
If I Just Purchase the Reformer Now, Can I Buy the Optional Extras Later?
