Align Pilates A8-Pro: The Longest Reformer Carriage for Tall Clients and Rehab Studios
The Align Pilates A8-Pro is Align-Pilates' flagship commercial reformer, with the longest carriage travel of any standard Pilates reformer at 113 cm (44.5″) and the widest carriage bed on the market at 91 × 67 cm. Solid aluminium frame, 8 PU wheel carriage, patent-pending Rapid Change spring bar, and a choice of three interchangeable leg heights (28 cm, 42 cm, or 64 cm) selected at checkout. Suitable for users up to 6 ft 4 in (193 cm). RecovAthlete is an authorized Align-Pilates dealer and sells the A8-Pro from $3,700 plus freight. Commercial studios, rehab clinics, physiotherapists, and serious home practitioners are the core buyers. Under a 7 ft ceiling with the tower, or if you need Cadillac functions built into the frame, look at the C8-Pro or the A8-Pro with Tower instead.
- Authorized Align-Pilates dealer.
- Factory warranty and direct manufacturer support on every order.
- Financing via Affirm, Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital and Acorn Finance.
- Multi-unit studio pricing: Call 866-861-6317.

Important: Choose Your Leg Height Before Ordering
The A8-Pro ships in one of three leg heights, selected at checkout: 28 cm Low, 42 cm Standard, or 64 cm Rehab. Additional leg sets are sold separately if you change your mind later. Freight-shipped reformers cannot be returned once accepted. Call 866-861-6317 if you are not sure which height fits your studio or clients.
Best For
- Tall clients up to 6 ft 4 in and taller instructors who need a full-length stroke
- Commercial Pilates studios building a fleet across mixed client abilities
- Physical therapy and rehab clinics needing the 64 cm elevated carriage for post-surgery and mobility-limited clients
- Serious home practitioners investing in commercial-grade equipment for years of use
Not Ideal For
- Buyers wanting Cadillac built into the frame. See the A8-Pro with Tower
- Rooms with under 7 ft ceilings if planning tower add-on later
- Compact home use where storage matters. See the F3 Folding Reformer
- Light-commercial or budget builds. See the R8-Pro
Why RecovAthlete Carries This
The A8-Pro fills two gaps that most commercial reformers do not: the 113 cm carriage travel accommodates tall clients that shorter reformers force to compromise on stroke length, and the 64 cm Rehab Legs option is a dedicated elevated-carriage variant that is uncommon in this price range. That combination makes the A8-Pro the right choice for studios serving varied body types, and for clinical practices where a standard low-carriage reformer is not accessible to clients with limited mobility.
What the A8-Pro Does
- 113 cm carriage travel, longest of any standard reformer. Full classical repertoire for tall clients, no shortened stroke, no cramped footwork.
- 91 × 67 cm carriage bed, widest on the market. Fits more body types with less adjustment between exercises.
- 3 interchangeable leg heights. 28 cm, 42 cm, or 64 cm. Additional leg sets sold separately if you reconfigure later.
- Rapid Change spring bar. Patent-pending. One hand, single action, springs attached. Saves up to 11 actions per change vs a standard spring bar.
- Oversized 6-position foot bar. More lockable positions and a wider grip than the standard Align-Pilates foot bar.
- Pro-Rope adjuster. Both ropes stay at matching length and adjust simultaneously. Faster setup between clients.
- Stainless steel rope risers. 5 heights, foldaway for Half Cadillac use, eyelet for attaching springs.
- Align-Pilates Silent System. Metal-free double loop handles, silent ropes, adjustable fluffy foot straps, patented silent pulleys.
- Integral standing platform. Built into the reformer, not removable. Immediate access to standing repertoire.
- Stackable storage. Two people recommended given the size and weight.
- Half and Full Cadillac compatible. Expandable with A-Series brackets sold separately.

Rehab Legs 64 cm / 25.25″

One honest limitation. The A8-Pro is not the most common commercial reformer choice. Most studios buying their first commercial reformer go with the C8-Pro because it costs less and the standard carriage fits most clients. Choose the A8-Pro when you consistently see clients over 6 ft, when you need the longest carriage reformer for tall people at home or in the studio, when you run rehab or PT protocols that need elevated carriage height, or when you want the widest carriage bed for accessibility work.
Common Questions About the A8-Pro
What is the longest carriage travel Pilates reformer?
The Align Pilates A8-Pro has the longest carriage travel of any standard Pilates reformer at 113 cm (44.5″), which is 6.5 cm more than the C8-Pro at 106.5 cm. It supports users from 4 ft 10 in up to 6 ft 4 in (193 cm), making it the best choice for tall clients and for instructors teaching the full classical Pilates repertoire without a shortened stroke.
I'm tall: what reformer has the longest carriage?
The Align Pilates A8-Pro is the longest carriage Pilates reformer for tall people. With 113 cm of carriage travel and a supported user height up to 6 ft 4 in, the A8-Pro is built for taller clients who feel restricted on shorter reformers. Choose the 28 cm Low Legs or 42 cm Standard Legs to preserve classical Pilates geometry while giving the full stroke length. Suitable for home use as well as commercial studios.
How much does the A8-Pro cost?
The A8-Pro starts at $3,700 plus freight, with price varying by leg height configuration. Financing is available through Affirm, Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital, and Acorn Finance. Studios ordering multiple units, or bundling with Cadillac frames or Sitting Boxes, should call 866-861-6317 for combined pricing and freight consolidation.
Which leg height should I choose?
28 cm (Low Legs) suits standard classical Pilates geometry with easy client entry. This is the default supplied configuration. 42 cm (Standard Legs) is the most versatile all-round height for mixed client groups and broad repertoire. 64 cm (Rehab Legs) is designed for clinical and rehabilitation settings where an elevated carriage height reduces physical strain on clients with limited mobility.
Can I change the leg height after purchase?
Yes. Align-Pilates sells each leg set separately (28 cm, 42 cm, 64 cm). You can purchase additional legs later to change or expand configurations. Call 866-861-6317 for availability.
Can I add a Half or Full Cadillac to the A8-Pro?
Yes. The A8-Pro is compatible with the Align-Pilates Half Cadillac Frame and Full Cadillac Frame, using A-Series brackets (sold separately). The stainless steel rope risers fold down for use with the Half Cadillac. If you want the tower included from day one, look at the A8-Pro with Tower. Call 866-861-6317 to build the right package.
How much room do I need for the A8-Pro?
The reformer measures 263 cm long by 75 cm wide (103.5″ by 29.5″). Plan for a room at least 335 cm (11 ft) long to allow for the 113 cm carriage travel plus arm and leg extensions, and at least 150 cm (5 ft) wide for room on both sides. Standard residential ceiling height is sufficient for standard exercises.
Does the A8-Pro require assembly?
Yes. The A8-Pro arrives boxed and requires assembly. Two people are recommended given the size and weight. Full assembly instructions are on the Align-Pilates YouTube channel and in the assembly manual (PDF). RecovAthlete installation service is available for $299. Call 866-861-6317 to add installation to your order.
What is the maximum user weight?
330 lbs / 150 kg. The A8-Pro is rated for the full commercial user range with no client weight restrictions.

Freight-shipped reformers cannot be returned once accepted. Call 866-861-6317 if you are not sure which height fits your studio or clients.
Best For
- Tall clients up to 6 ft 4 in and taller instructors who need a full-length stroke
- Commercial Pilates studios building a fleet across mixed client abilities
- Physical therapy and rehab clinics needing the 64 cm elevated carriage for post-surgery and mobility-limited clients
- Serious home practitioners investing in commercial-grade equipment for years of use
Not Ideal For
- Buyers wanting Cadillac built into the frame. See the A8-Pro with Tower
- Rooms with under 7 ft ceilings if planning tower add-on later
- Compact home use where storage matters. See the F3 Folding Reformer
- Light-commercial or budget builds. See the R8-Pro
Why RecovAthlete Carries This
The A8-Pro fills two gaps that most commercial reformers do not: the 113 cm carriage travel accommodates tall clients that shorter reformers force to compromise on stroke length, and the 64 cm Rehab Legs option is a dedicated elevated-carriage variant that is uncommon in this price range. That combination makes the A8-Pro the right choice for studios serving varied body types, and for clinical practices where a standard low-carriage reformer is not accessible to clients with limited mobility.
What the A8-Pro Does
- 113 cm carriage travel, longest of any standard reformer. Full classical repertoire for tall clients, no shortened stroke, no cramped footwork.
- 91 × 67 cm carriage bed, widest on the market. Fits more body types with less adjustment between exercises.
- 3 interchangeable leg heights. 28 cm, 42 cm, or 64 cm. Additional leg sets sold separately if you reconfigure later.
- Rapid Change spring bar. Patent-pending. One hand, single action, springs attached. Saves up to 11 actions per change vs a standard spring bar.
- Oversized 6-position foot bar. More lockable positions and a wider grip than the standard Align-Pilates foot bar.
- Pro-Rope adjuster. Both ropes stay at matching length and adjust simultaneously. Faster setup between clients.
- Stainless steel rope risers. 5 heights, foldaway for Half Cadillac use, eyelet for attaching springs.
- Align-Pilates Silent System. Metal-free double loop handles, silent ropes, adjustable fluffy foot straps, patented silent pulleys.
- Integral standing platform. Built into the reformer, not removable. Immediate access to standing repertoire.
- Stackable storage. Two people recommended given the size and weight.
- Half and Full Cadillac compatible. Expandable with A-Series brackets sold separately.

One honest limitation. The A8-Pro is not the most common commercial reformer choice. Most studios buying their first commercial reformer go with the C8-Pro because it costs less and the standard carriage fits most clients. Choose the A8-Pro when you consistently see clients over 6 ft, when you need the longest carriage reformer for tall people at home or in the studio, when you run rehab or PT protocols that need elevated carriage height, or when you want the widest carriage bed for accessibility work.
Common Questions About the A8-Pro
What is the longest carriage travel Pilates reformer?
The Align Pilates A8-Pro has the longest carriage travel of any standard Pilates reformer at 113 cm (44.5″), which is 6.5 cm more than the C8-Pro at 106.5 cm. It supports users from 4 ft 10 in up to 6 ft 4 in (193 cm), making it the best choice for tall clients and for instructors teaching the full classical Pilates repertoire without a shortened stroke.
I'm tall: what reformer has the longest carriage?
The Align Pilates A8-Pro is the longest carriage Pilates reformer for tall people. With 113 cm of carriage travel and a supported user height up to 6 ft 4 in, the A8-Pro is built for taller clients who feel restricted on shorter reformers. Choose the 28 cm Low Legs or 42 cm Standard Legs to preserve classical Pilates geometry while giving the full stroke length. Suitable for home use as well as commercial studios.
How much does the A8-Pro cost?
The A8-Pro starts at $3,700 plus freight, with price varying by leg height configuration. Financing is available through Affirm, Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital, and Acorn Finance. Studios ordering multiple units, or bundling with Cadillac frames or Sitting Boxes, should call 866-861-6317 for combined pricing and freight consolidation.
Which leg height should I choose?
28 cm (Low Legs) suits standard classical Pilates geometry with easy client entry. This is the default supplied configuration. 42 cm (Standard Legs) is the most versatile all-round height for mixed client groups and broad repertoire. 64 cm (Rehab Legs) is designed for clinical and rehabilitation settings where an elevated carriage height reduces physical strain on clients with limited mobility.
Can I change the leg height after purchase?
Yes. Align-Pilates sells each leg set separately (28 cm, 42 cm, 64 cm). You can purchase additional legs later to change or expand configurations. Call 866-861-6317 for availability.
Can I add a Half or Full Cadillac to the A8-Pro?
Yes. The A8-Pro is compatible with the Align-Pilates Half Cadillac Frame and Full Cadillac Frame, using A-Series brackets (sold separately). The stainless steel rope risers fold down for use with the Half Cadillac. If you want the tower included from day one, look at the A8-Pro with Tower. Call 866-861-6317 to build the right package.
How much room do I need for the A8-Pro?
The reformer measures 263 cm long by 75 cm wide (103.5″ by 29.5″). Plan for a room at least 335 cm (11 ft) long to allow for the 113 cm carriage travel plus arm and leg extensions, and at least 150 cm (5 ft) wide for room on both sides. Standard residential ceiling height is sufficient for standard exercises.
Does the A8-Pro require assembly?
Yes. The A8-Pro arrives boxed and requires assembly. Two people are recommended given the size and weight. Full assembly instructions are on the Align-Pilates YouTube channel and in the assembly manual (PDF). RecovAthlete installation service is available for $299. Call 866-861-6317 to add installation to your order.
What is the maximum user weight?
330 lbs / 150 kg. The A8-Pro is rated for the full commercial user range with no client weight restrictions.

Financing for Recovery and Fitness Equipment
Buying for yourself, spread the cost through Affirm at checkout. Buying for a gym, clinic, spa, or studio, apply with one of four business lenders and put the whole room on a single application.
RecovAthlete has no control over any financing decision. Approval is based on your creditworthiness and is solely the lender's decision.
Personal purchase
Affirm at checkout. Rates run 0% to 36% APR based on your credit profile. Soft check to prequalify, so no impact on your score. No prepayment penalty.
Business purchase
Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital, Acorn Finance, or KWIPPED. Apply with two of the four and compare. Financed equipment can qualify for a Section 179 deduction. Confirm with your accountant.

Commercial Recovery Equipment Financing

Building a Recovery Room?
Most business buyers are not buying one machine. They are building a room. Sauna, cold plunge, red light, vibration, hyperbaric, cryotherapy, and halotherapy all finance on the same paper through the same four lenders, and RecovAthlete quotes every category on one purchase order.
That means one freight schedule, one install window, and one financing application instead of six. It also gets you a better rate, because a bigger number on one application beats six small ones with six hard inquiries.
See commercial recovery equipment financing, or call 866-861-6317 and we will price the room.
Which Lender Should You Apply With?
| Lender | Type | Amount | Speed | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Affirm | Consumer, at checkout | Order total | Seconds | Personal purchases. 0% to 36% APR based on credit. Soft check to prequalify. |
| Brickhouse Capital | Direct equipment lender | Up to $250K on a one-page application, $1M+ with financials | ~24 hours | A full room or a full floor. Credit decisions made in-house. Tied to the business, not your personal credit report. |
| Reliant Capital | Lender and broker | Up to $500K application-only, $5M with financials | 2 to 4 hours | Medical, aesthetic, and wellness. Deferred payment options. New or used equipment. |
| Acorn Finance | Lending marketplace | $1,000 to $100,000 | 60 seconds to prequalify | Comparing offers. One application goes to 30 or more lenders with no impact to your score. |
| KWIPPED (APPROVE) | Lender marketplace | Minimum $1,500 equipment value | 60-second application | Larger commercial orders. Lenders compete, which usually returns the best APR. Businesses only. |

Financing Questions
What are Affirm's rates?
Pay in 4 splits the purchase into four interest-free payments charged every two weeks. Monthly installments spread the cost over a longer term, with rates from 0% to 36% APR depending on your credit profile. You see the exact terms before you agree to anything. No origination fees, no prepayment penalty, no late fees.
Will applying hurt my credit score?
Prequalification does not. Affirm and Acorn Finance both run a soft check to show you offers, which has no impact on your score. Proceeding with a monthly installment plan or a business loan may involve a hard inquiry. That is why it pays to prequalify with more than one lender first and only proceed with the best offer.
Can I finance equipment for a business?
Yes, and for most business buyers it is the better route. Brickhouse funds up to $250,000 on a one-page application with no financial statements. Reliant approves in 2 to 4 hours. Business financing is usually tied to the business rather than your personal credit report, and financed equipment can qualify for a Section 179 deduction. Confirm the tax position with your accountant.
Should I finance each machine separately?
No. This is the most common and most expensive mistake. Separate applications mean separate hard inquiries, separate payments, and a worse rate on each, because every individual ticket is small. Get one quote from RecovAthlete covering everything you are buying, including freight, and put that single number on one application.
Does Section 179 apply to financed equipment?
Financed equipment can qualify. Section 179 lets US businesses deduct the cost of qualifying equipment in the year it is placed in service, and financing the purchase does not by itself disqualify it. The equipment must be in service, not merely ordered, within the tax year. Annual limits and eligibility rules are set by the IRS and change year to year, so consult your accountant.
Can freight and installation be financed?
Freight, yes. On Affirm it is part of the order total at checkout. On business financing, put freight on the RecovAthlete quote and the whole quote amount goes on the application. Installation and room construction are harder, because some equipment lenders will not fund non-equipment costs. Ask the lender before you sign.
Can I pay off early?
Yes. Affirm charges no prepayment penalties. Acorn Finance and most business lenders also allow early payoff without penalty.
Not sure which option fits?
Tell us what you are buying and whether it is personal or for a business. We will point you at the right two lenders and quote freight and install as one number, which is also the number that goes on the application.

One honest limitation. The A8-Pro is not the most common commercial reformer choice. Most studios buying their first commercial reformer go with the C8-Pro because it costs less and the standard carriage fits most clients. Choose the A8-Pro when you consistently see clients over 6 ft, when you need the longest carriage reformer for tall people at home or in the studio, when you run rehab or PT protocols that need elevated carriage height, or when you want the widest carriage bed for accessibility work.
Common Questions About the A8-Pro
What is the longest carriage travel Pilates reformer?
The Align Pilates A8-Pro has the longest carriage travel of any standard Pilates reformer at 113 cm (44.5″), which is 6.5 cm more than the C8-Pro at 106.5 cm. It supports users from 4 ft 10 in up to 6 ft 4 in (193 cm), making it the best choice for tall clients and for instructors teaching the full classical Pilates repertoire without a shortened stroke.
I'm tall: what reformer has the longest carriage?
The Align Pilates A8-Pro is the longest carriage Pilates reformer for tall people. With 113 cm of carriage travel and a supported user height up to 6 ft 4 in, the A8-Pro is built for taller clients who feel restricted on shorter reformers. Choose the 28 cm Low Legs or 42 cm Standard Legs to preserve classical Pilates geometry while giving the full stroke length. Suitable for home use as well as commercial studios.
How much does the A8-Pro cost?
The A8-Pro starts at $3,700 plus freight, with price varying by leg height configuration. Financing is available through Affirm, Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital, and Acorn Finance. Studios ordering multiple units, or bundling with Cadillac frames or Sitting Boxes, should call 866-861-6317 for combined pricing and freight consolidation.

28 cm (Low Legs) suits standard classical Pilates geometry with easy client entry.

Can I change the leg height after purchase?
Yes. Align-Pilates sells each leg set separately (28 cm, 42 cm, 64 cm). You can purchase additional legs later to change or expand configurations. Call 866-861-6317 for availability.
Can I add a Half or Full Cadillac to the A8-Pro?
Yes. The A8-Pro is compatible with the Align-Pilates Half Cadillac Frame and Full Cadillac Frame, using A-Series brackets (sold separately). The stainless steel rope risers fold down for use with the Half Cadillac. If you want the tower included from day one, look at the A8-Pro with Tower. Call 866-861-6317 to build the right package.
How much room do I need for the A8-Pro?
The reformer measures 263 cm long by 75 cm wide (103.5″ by 29.5″). Plan for a room at least 335 cm (11 ft) long to allow for the 113 cm carriage travel plus arm and leg extensions, and at least 150 cm (5 ft) wide for room on both sides. Standard residential ceiling height is sufficient for standard exercises.
Does the A8-Pro require assembly?
Yes. The A8-Pro arrives boxed and requires assembly. Two people are recommended given the size and weight.

Align Pilates A8-Pro: The Longest Reformer Carriage for Tall Clients and Rehab Studios
The Align Pilates A8-Pro is Align-Pilates' flagship commercial reformer, with the longest carriage travel of any standard Pilates reformer at 113 cm (44.5″) and the widest carriage bed on the market at 91 × 67 cm. Solid aluminium frame, 8 PU wheel carriage, patent-pending Rapid Change spring bar, and a choice of three interchangeable leg heights (28 cm, 42 cm, or 64 cm) selected at checkout. Suitable for users up to 6 ft 4 in (193 cm). RecovAthlete is an authorized Align-Pilates dealer and sells the A8-Pro from $3,700 plus freight. Commercial studios, rehab clinics, physiotherapists, and serious home practitioners are the core buyers. Under a 7 ft ceiling with the tower, or if you need Cadillac functions built into the frame, look at the C8-Pro or the A8-Pro with Tower instead.
- Authorized Align-Pilates dealer.
- Factory warranty and direct manufacturer support on every order.
- Financing via Affirm, Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital and Acorn Finance.
- Multi-unit studio pricing: Call 866-861-6317.

Important: Choose Your Leg Height Before Ordering
The A8-Pro ships in one of three leg heights, selected at checkout: 28 cm Low, 42 cm Standard, or 64 cm Rehab. Additional leg sets are sold separately if you change your mind later. Freight-shipped reformers cannot be returned once accepted. Call 866-861-6317 if you are not sure which height fits your studio or clients.
Best For
- Tall clients up to 6 ft 4 in and taller instructors who need a full-length stroke
- Commercial Pilates studios building a fleet across mixed client abilities
- Physical therapy and rehab clinics needing the 64 cm elevated carriage for post-surgery and mobility-limited clients
- Serious home practitioners investing in commercial-grade equipment for years of use
Not Ideal For
- Buyers wanting Cadillac built into the frame. See the A8-Pro with Tower
- Rooms with under 7 ft ceilings if planning tower add-on later
- Compact home use where storage matters. See the F3 Folding Reformer
- Light-commercial or budget builds. See the R8-Pro
Why RecovAthlete Carries This
The A8-Pro fills two gaps that most commercial reformers do not: the 113 cm carriage travel accommodates tall clients that shorter reformers force to compromise on stroke length, and the 64 cm Rehab Legs option is a dedicated elevated-carriage variant that is uncommon in this price range. That combination makes the A8-Pro the right choice for studios serving varied body types, and for clinical practices where a standard low-carriage reformer is not accessible to clients with limited mobility.
What the A8-Pro Does
- 113 cm carriage travel, longest of any standard reformer. Full classical repertoire for tall clients, no shortened stroke, no cramped footwork.
- 91 × 67 cm carriage bed, widest on the market. Fits more body types with less adjustment between exercises.
- 3 interchangeable leg heights. 28 cm, 42 cm, or 64 cm. Additional leg sets sold separately if you reconfigure later.
- Rapid Change spring bar. Patent-pending. One hand, single action, springs attached. Saves up to 11 actions per change vs a standard spring bar.
- Oversized 6-position foot bar. More lockable positions and a wider grip than the standard Align-Pilates foot bar.
- Pro-Rope adjuster. Both ropes stay at matching length and adjust simultaneously. Faster setup between clients.
- Stainless steel rope risers. 5 heights, foldaway for Half Cadillac use, eyelet for attaching springs.
- Align-Pilates Silent System. Metal-free double loop handles, silent ropes, adjustable fluffy foot straps, patented silent pulleys.
- Integral standing platform. Built into the reformer, not removable. Immediate access to standing repertoire.
- Stackable storage. Two people recommended given the size and weight.
- Half and Full Cadillac compatible. Expandable with A-Series brackets sold separately.
Choose Your Leg Height
Low Legs 28 cm / 11″

Standard Legs 42 cm / 16.5″
The most versatile all-round height. Best choice for mixed client groups and broad repertoire.
Rehab Legs 64 cm / 25.25″
Elevated height for clinical and rehabilitation settings. Reduces bending for clients with limited mobility.

One honest limitation. The A8-Pro is not the most common commercial reformer choice. Most studios buying their first commercial reformer go with the C8-Pro because it costs less and the standard carriage fits most clients. Choose the A8-Pro when you consistently see clients over 6 ft, when you need the longest carriage reformer for tall people at home or in the studio, when you run rehab or PT protocols that need elevated carriage height, or when you want the widest carriage bed for accessibility work.
Common Questions About the A8-Pro
What is the longest carriage travel Pilates reformer?
The Align Pilates A8-Pro has the longest carriage travel of any standard Pilates reformer at 113 cm (44.5″), which is 6.5 cm more than the C8-Pro at 106.5 cm. It supports users from 4 ft 10 in up to 6 ft 4 in (193 cm), making it the best choice for tall clients and for instructors teaching the full classical Pilates repertoire without a shortened stroke.
I'm tall: what reformer has the longest carriage?
The Align Pilates A8-Pro is the longest carriage Pilates reformer for tall people. With 113 cm of carriage travel and a supported user height up to 6 ft 4 in, the A8-Pro is built for taller clients who feel restricted on shorter reformers. Choose the 28 cm Low Legs or 42 cm Standard Legs to preserve classical Pilates geometry while giving the full stroke length. Suitable for home use as well as commercial studios.
How much does the A8-Pro cost?
The A8-Pro starts at $3,700 plus freight, with price varying by leg height configuration. Financing is available through Affirm, Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital, and Acorn Finance. Studios ordering multiple units, or bundling with Cadillac frames or Sitting Boxes, should call 866-861-6317 for combined pricing and freight consolidation.
Which leg height should I choose?
28 cm (Low Legs) suits standard classical Pilates geometry with easy client entry. This is the default supplied configuration. 42 cm (Standard Legs) is the most versatile all-round height for mixed client groups and broad repertoire. 64 cm (Rehab Legs) is designed for clinical and rehabilitation settings where an elevated carriage height reduces physical strain on clients with limited mobility.
Can I change the leg height after purchase?
Yes. Align-Pilates sells each leg set separately (28 cm, 42 cm, 64 cm). You can purchase additional legs later to change or expand configurations. Call 866-861-6317 for availability.
Can I add a Half or Full Cadillac to the A8-Pro?
Yes. The A8-Pro is compatible with the Align-Pilates Half Cadillac Frame and Full Cadillac Frame, using A-Series brackets (sold separately). The stainless steel rope risers fold down for use with the Half Cadillac. If you want the tower included from day one, look at the A8-Pro with Tower. Call 866-861-6317 to build the right package.
How much room do I need for the A8-Pro?
The reformer measures 263 cm long by 75 cm wide (103.5″ by 29.5″). Plan for a room at least 335 cm (11 ft) long to allow for the 113 cm carriage travel plus arm and leg extensions, and at least 150 cm (5 ft) wide for room on both sides. Standard residential ceiling height is sufficient for standard exercises.
Does the A8-Pro require assembly?
Yes. The A8-Pro arrives boxed and requires assembly. Two people are recommended given the size and weight. Full assembly instructions are on the Align-Pilates YouTube channel and in the assembly manual (PDF). RecovAthlete installation service is available for $299. Call 866-861-6317 to add installation to your order.
What is the maximum user weight?
330 lbs / 150 kg. The A8-Pro is rated for the full commercial user range with no client weight restrictions.
