MU Pilates Reformer, Foldable Reformer Pilates Machine & Equipment for Home Use and Gym Workout, Suitable for Advanced and Beginners Users, Up to 400 lbs Weight Capacity, Black

Is this comparable to a pro studio reformer? No. But will it get the job done? Yes! Like most of us, I can’t afford a several thousand dollar professional reformer, nor do I have enough room for one, so I was looking for an affordable, foldable option to supplement my studio lessons at home. I looked at other similarly priced foldable reformers but settled on this one because it offered the smallest folded dimensions (space is VERY limited in my house).Pros: it does indeed fold up pretty compactly. It’s sturdy and feels secure and stable for standing moves. For the price, it’s a decent machine. No complaints overall.Things to keep in mind before you buy: I didn’t want to call this list “cons” because they’re not really bad things, just things you need to consider when looking to buy this reformer. First and foremost, it IS small. The sled is short, even for someone like me who is barely 5 feet tall. Ideally, it could use 6” more inches and be fine for most average sized humans, but as it is, it’s a tight fit even for someone my height. My husband is 5’9 and can do some moves, but not all, and he really has to scrunch himself to fit on the platform. Both of us can max out the full extension length on certain moves.Secondly, it is noisy. The pulleys for the straps probably could use some oiling to minimize the squeaking. There’s also more noise in general than a pro reformer, but it glides well. The sled doesn’t have a noticeable “catch” when it slides over the hinges on the foldable frame.The shoulder posts come out easily, which is great for storage but they can pop off when pulling the straps off during use. And I really miss having an adjustable headrest for certain moves.The posts for the straps also feel like they could be a few inches longer. It’s sometimes tricky to get the right level of tension/extension without getting under the machine to tinker with the length of the straps.Folding and unfolding the reformer feels like a 2 person job. It’s possible to do it by myself, but it’s pretty unwieldy. It does fold up nicely and can be wheeled around in its folded state. It could definitely fit into most standard hallway closets.Overall, I’m still very happy with this machine and it’s seen more or less constant use in the month that I’ve owned it. Currently, it’s set up in my living room, which is great for my ADHD brain when watching TV and I start getting fidgety. Just hop on the reformer and do some moves! I love having it at my disposal and it’s keeping my back and hip pain in check. I’ll use it until I can save up enough for a higher end foldable reformer, but in the meantime it’s a great little machine for what I need!

Be new to Pilates and not wanting to spend a lot of money this functions perfectly the size is perfect for easy storage a little on the heavy side, but to be expected with equipment like this the quality is excellent and operates rather smoothly great for a new beginner learning the ropes

Exactly what I was looking for, a reasonably priced reformer that is strong, sturdy, and doesn’t take up a lot of space, can be folded up to move it out of the way. I use this every day and I absolutely love it. It was very easy to put together, the instructions were clear and I would highly recommend it. Some people commented that it was not for tall people, I can’t speak to that because I am 5‘2“ and it works fine for me.

Maximum use was only about 10 times. String started to come out of the pulley…. No matter what I do. It won’t stay in. I wouldn’t recommend this.

I wanted something with good build quality, and easy to slap together. I was not disappointed - It came packed well and it was together quickly. Instructions are simple and have clear pictures of assembly. The rollers glide nice and it is built on a very sturdy frame. It does have quick pins for removal so it can be folded down and stored if wanted. I was worried about buying this online, but if I saw this at a store, in person, I wouldn’t hesitate to buy it. I’m very happy with the purchase.

Great product only issue is that the ropes are set at one length and not adjustable. I had to tie a knot in the middle to shorten it so that my legs can be lifted to the desired angle. Gods price.

If you love Pilates but don't want to spend a lot, this is a great option! I chose this one because it doesn't sit on the ground, and I'm really happy with that. Easy to set up, though a bit heavy, so I keep it in one spot. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an affordable reformer!

This is adequate for home use- it feels sturdy and has good resistance. It feels smaller than studio reformers- which works for me because I’m 5’2” but I could imagine someone taller wouldn’t find it comfortable.It was easy enough to assemble- whole process took about 15 mins.Overall I think it’s a nice home option and good quality for the price point
