The R8-Pro reformer includes all the features of a studio reformer in a sleek streamlined design. With classic geometry, smooth silent operation, and intuitive adjustability, it is perfect for users seeking an authentic, high-quality Pilates experience at home.

Description

The R8-Pro is our newest entry-level light commercial reformer.

The R8 stands for “Retro” (8 wheel) as the reformer has been designed to replicate many features of Joseph Pilates’ original reformers. This includes the carriage and foot bar distances, carriage dimensions, spring bar positions, foot bar height, and reformer height. While the R8-Pro uses height-adjustable rope risers and our Silent Ropes instead of leather straps, the design ensures the pulley position closely resembles that of a classic machine.

Despite these classic features, the R8-Pro is a contemporary reformer designed with four foot bar heights, including a flat position, and many rapid adjustment systems.

The R8-Pro comes with four springs and uniquely has space for adding an optional fifth spring. It also includes our patented Rapid Change spring bar with three spring bar positions for quick and seamless carriage position adjustments. The R8-Pro ropes can also be quickly adjusted using our Pro Rope adjusters that conveniently sit behind the shoulder rests.

The R8 is our first Reformer in the “light commercial” category, meaning it’s ideal for both home studios or those commercial setups with light usage. Please note that this Reformer cannot accommodate a Half Cadillac Tower. The R8-Pro warranty covers domestic usage and includes limited light commercial usage — up to 20 hours per week. This Reformer also has a user weight limit of 120 kg. For a full breakdown, please see the warranty.

This is an incredibly compact Reformer that does not sacrifice quality or performance. You can free-stand the R8-Pro with an optional Jump Board, and it’s portable too with wheels to reposition or move, making it a great choice for a multi-purpose studio.

Overall, the R8-Pro is the best value light commercial Reformer on the market. Its appreciation of classic Pilates Reformer geometry, combined with ease of use, longer travel, and a wider range of adjustments to suit different body shapes and sizes, makes this a great all-around Reformer and a modern take on a classic theme.
