Let me start by saying that I was looking for a reasonably priced reformer that folds up for storage and uses real springs instead of cords. I searched for hours online, and this is the only one that met those specifications. I was a little hesitant at first because there were n't any reviews for it at the time I purchased it. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to assemble and how well it works for the price! Now to get into the details... It was packaged well and nothing was damaged during shipping. It was super easy to assemble! You do need two people to unfold it since it is somewhat heavy, but after that you just screw in some knobs to attach the foot bar, shoulder pads, etc. The carriage is wide and actually quite long. I was worried because the foot bar does n't adjust at all, but I am 5'9 '' with long legs and was much more comfortable doing foot work on this reformer than any I 've used in a studio. I 've done reformer Pilates in studios for years, and I find the four available springs provide more than enough resistance for what I need. A couple minor cons and things to watch out for( none of these bother me enough to reduce my 5- star rating though!): The carriage glides smoothly on the rails for the most part. I found it was catching a bit on the crease where the reformer folds up, but once I fixed the rope/straps to the correct length, I found I hardly ever go out that far with the carriage anyway. That being said, be sure to read the instructions and ensure your ropes/straps are at the right length! It was much better after I did that. There is n't a metal rod/hook to hold the straps, so I have to either put them on the floor next to the carriage or hook them around the shoulder pads which is uncomfortable on my shoulders. The shoulder pads are n't fully secured( you just pop them in the holes), so they occasionally pop off when I try to get the straps off them. Not a big deal; I just pop them back in. They have n't ever popped off mid- exercise. There is some noise when I move the carriage, but it mostly just sounds like new wheels on shiny new metal. I 'm hoping it will go away with time, but it's really not that bothersome if it does n't. Overall, now that I have it properly set up, it works very well for the exercises I need. For an inexpensive at home reformer that folds for storage and uses real springs, this one is absolutely fantastic! I 'm so glad I bought it!

I used to do the pilates floor routines, but couldnt get motivated to keep doing it over time. I ’ ve researched home reformers off and on for a few years now. After reading the reviews for this one I finally made my choice. Its well made with springs not cords, and it folds up. The wheels were a little squeaky, but I just wiped the tracks and wheels off with a dry rag, then put a small amout of coconut oil the length of the track. That seems to have stopped the noise. So far I love it and want to use it every day! They could have included a dvd video instead of just downloads to phone. That ’s my only complaint. Someday if I wear it out I ’ d love to have the whole setup on a platform with a cadillac.

Recently upgraded to this new Pilates machine from Stamina products. We have had an earlier model, the Stamina Products JP4500, for around 15 years and the only thing we recently replaced were the rollers. Impressed with their reliability we ordered this product. We had a few minor issues primarily related to the shipment but Connie from customer service went above and beyond to address them to our complete satisfaction. The assembly of the product was relatively easy and I was able to complete it leisurely in about 45 minutes. All the tools are provided and the assembly instructions are clear. The product itself is great and compares very favorably to the professional equipment we use at the Gym, for a fraction of the price. In addition to the usual features this also has the Rebounder that gives you a great cardio workout. It comes with a work out wall poster( and videos) that are simple to do and exercise almost every part of your body including legs, abdominals, hips, obliques, thighs etc. In just a week of use my wife and I notice a significant improvement in our flexibility and muscle strength. The cushion pad is wider than what we had with the older model and very comfortable. We also bought the optional pull up bar and that provides even more exercise possibilities. It's not often that you get a great product that is matched with excellent customer service, particularly in these trying times. However this AeroPilates Reformer from Stamina is one of them.

Arrived on time,, undamaged and put together in about 45 mins. Very sturdy and well built, glad I went for this model. Folds up nicely and rolls pretty easy on it's wheels. Would recommend it for every level of Pilates training.

So happy with this purchase! I am an instructor and due to studios being closed here in NYC I needed a way to practice at home and keep up with my routines. I am able to do this with the reformer 535 at a great price and keep in shape while I wait to get back into the studios!
