What is a Pilates reformer?

How does a Pilates reformer work?
The Reformer works by providing resistance through a set of springs attached to the carriage. Users can perform exercises by pushing or pulling the carriage, using their body weight and the resistance from the springs to strengthen and stretch their muscles.

What factors should I consider when buying a Pilates Reformer or other Pilates equipment?

What are the differences between the product features of the Set Pilates Facile and Master Wood Reformers?
The Master Wood models differ from the Facile reformers through the Master Wood models footbars being more advanced. The Master Wood models footbar can be adjusted both horizontally and angularly, meaning it travels on the frame and can be moved up and down. This can be particularly helpful to find 90 degrees on the hips for people over 190cm height or for people lower than 150cm.
What are the differences between the SEC and SECR-S Cadillacs?
The SEC Cadillac does not have a reformer on the base - it is a fixed base which doesn't move. The SECR & SECR-S Cadillac Reformer's have a reformer as the base. This enables you to combine movements and exercises you would normally do with a reformer, alongside the exercises and benefits of the vertical bars/tower options provided by the Cadillac frame.
