Align-Pilates R8-Pro Reformer

The R8-Pro, our newest light commercial entry-level reformer, gets its name from the fact that it looks a lot like Joseph Pilates's original "classic Reformers," hence the R8, which stands for Retro (8 wheel). This includes the carriage's measurements, reformer height, foot bar height, spring bar locations, and carriage and carriage distances. Even though the R8-Pro lacks height-adjustable rope risers and leather straps in favor of our Silent Ropes, its design ensures that the pulley position is very similar to that of a classic machine.

The R8-Pro is a contemporary reformer with four foot bar heights, a flat position, and several fast adjustment mechanisms despite these conventional features.

The R8-Pro comes with four springs by default, but if you'd like, you can add a fifth spring if you'd like. It also includes our unique three-position Rapid Change spring bar for simple and quick adjustments to carriage position. In order to quickly adjust the R8-Pro ropes, we also have Pro Rope adjusters that conveniently fit behind the shoulder rests.

The R8 is ideal for home studios and light-use commercial setups since it is the first Reformer in our lineup to fall into the "light commercial" category. Please be advised that a half Cadillac tower cannot be used with this reformer. This reformer has an additional user weight limit of 120 kg. 

Performance and quality are not compromised by this minuscule Reformer. The R8 Pro can be free-standing with an optional Jump Board, and its wheels make it portable and adjustable. It's a great choice for a multipurpose studio because of this.

Overall, the R8-Pro is the best reasonably priced light commercial reformer available on the market. Thanks to its appreciation of classic Pilates Reformer geometry, ease of use, longer travel, and wider range of adjustments to suit different body shapes and sizes, this is a great all-around reformer that offers a modern twist on a classic theme.
