The Merrithew At Home SPX Reformer Package with Vertical Stand is a full-length Pilates Pilates reformer built for home use, with a Vertical Stand so the machine stands upright when you are done. The carriage runs on C-channel aluminum rails using Merrithew's patented rolling mechanism, and the package ships with a Reformer Box with Footstrap, a Padded Platform Extender, a 2 lb Metal Roll-Up Pole, Double Loop Straps and a five-spring Traditional Springs Package. It supports hundreds of exercises from beginner through advanced.
This machine is for people training at home who want the same carriage feel as a studio reformer without a permanent studio footprint. It is used on its own, with the included box, pole and platform extender, and with optional Jumpboard and Rebounder accessories. Sessions typically run 30 to 60 minutes, and the machine is used as the main piece of a workout rather than a warm-up tool. It is used in bedrooms, spare rooms, basements, garage gyms and small apartments, plus private one-on-one training spaces.
The problem it solves is space. A standard studio reformer stays flat on the floor and occupies roughly 8 feet of floor permanently. This one folds up onto the Vertical Stand and stores in a corner. Compared with folding home reformers built on lighter frames, the At Home SPX keeps a full-size 97.5 in frame, a 22 in by 38.5 in carriage and studio-grade springs, so the ride does not feel like a compromise. Compared with the SPX Max Reformer, this model does not accept a Vertical Frame upgrade and cannot be stacked.
Capacity and fit matter before you buy. Weight capacity is 250 lbs. Merrithew specifies this machine for users between 60 in and 74 in in height. Assembly is minimal and no electrical or plumbing work is needed. Ceiling height is the real install constraint: 98.5 in to perform standing exercises on the platform with hands overhead, and 97.5 in to store the reformer upright on the stand. The outcome is a machine that builds core strength, endurance and flexibility, then disappears into the wall between sessions.
RecovAthlete is an authorized Merrithew dealer. Every unit ships new in factory packaging with full manufacturer warranty support.
Most home reformers cut the frame down to save space. Merrithew kept the full 97.5 in frame and the patented rolling carriage, then solved storage with a stand instead. That is the version of the trade-off our buyers keep choosing, because the machine still feels right on day 400, not just on day 4. Freight arrives palletised and our team walks you through inspection before you sign.
| Length 97.5 in with footbar down | Full studio carriage travel. You are not shortening your range to fit a home frame. |
| Width 26 in | Fits through most interior doorways and down a standard hallway when stood up. |
| Minimum ceiling 97.5 in to store upright | Measure your ceiling before ordering. Standard 8 ft ceilings clear this, low basements often do not. |
| 5 springs, four at 100% and one at 50% | Enough load range to run beginner rehabilitation work and heavy footwork on the same machine. |
| 5 neoprene spring covers | Quieter sessions. This matters in apartments and shared homes. |
| Carriage 9.5 in from floor | Standard reformer entry height. If you need a higher, easier transfer, look at the Elevated At Home SPX at 16.25 in. |
| Vinyl upholstery over dense EVA foam | Firm enough to give accurate proprioceptive feedback, and wipes clean after every session. |
| Weight capacity 250 lbs | Single-user home rating. Heavier users should move to a studio-rated frame. |
The springs in this package are built to withstand Jumpboard and Rebounder work, so the Merrithew Jumpboard for SPX and SPX Max Reformer is the usual first add-on. A Mat Converter is also available from Merrithew if you want to run matwork on a raised surface. Call 866-861-6317 to confirm fitment for your configuration before ordering accessories.

This reformer ships by freight, palletised, direct from the manufacturer. Standard freight is curbside delivery, so plan for a second person to help move the crate inside. White glove delivery options are available as a paid add-on, quoted per address. Inspect the crate before you sign the delivery receipt and note any damage on the paperwork, that is what protects your freight claim. Call 866-861-6317, 9am to 6pm EST Monday to Friday, for current lead times and a delivery quote to your address.
97.5 in to store the reformer upright on the Vertical Stand, and 98.5 in to perform standing exercises on the platform with your hands above your head, based on a 5 ft 8 in user. Measure to the lowest point in the room, including light fixtures and ceiling fans.
The frame is 97.5 in long with the footbar down and 26 in wide. Add clear space at the footbar end and at least one side for straps, box work and getting on and off.
No. This model cannot be stacked and cannot be upgraded to add a Vertical Frame. If a tower upgrade is part of your plan, start with the SPX Max Reformer with Vertical Stand Bundle instead.
No. The shoulder rests on this model are fixed pommel-style rests and cannot be removed.
Merrithew specifies users between 60 in and 74 in in height, with a 250 lb weight capacity. Outside that range, the fit and the loading are not what the machine was designed for.
Minimal assembly. The machine arrives largely built, and the owner's manual and Easy Start Poster ship in the box. Most buyers are training on it the same day it arrives.
The carriage runs on a rolling mechanism over aluminum rails, and the package includes 5 neoprene spring covers that reduce spring noise during use. A mat under the frame helps further on hard floors.
Carriage height. This model sits 9.5 in from the floor, standard reformer height. The Elevated At Home SPX Reformer Package is built at 16.25 in, which makes getting on and off easier for users with mobility limitations.

Covered by the Merrithew Manufacturer Warranty
Every new Merrithew product bought through RecovAthlete carries the Merrithew limited warranty. Coverage starts on the invoice date of your original purchase.
Important
Inspect your order before signing. Write any damage to the outer box or skid on the carrier's waybill. Damage not noted on the waybill is not covered. If someone signs for you, they must be over 18 and know this rule. Do not open freight with a box cutter, since it can cut the upholstery. Report damage or missing items within 3 business days of receipt.
Merrithew and its carriers are not responsible for delays caused by carrier backlogs, customs or border clearance, bad weather, or natural disasters.
Non-Returnable Items
Custom, made-to-order, and built-to-order items cannot be returned. They are still covered by the Merrithew manufacturer warranty. Check the product page before ordering.
Merrithew warrants new equipment against defects in materials and workmanship. Coverage depends on the product and the part:
Maintenance and Warranty Terms
Change the springs on Reformers, Cadillacs, Chairs, Tower Trainers, Wall Units, and Spring Walls every 2 years. Skipping this may void the warranty.
The warranty is void if the manual's safety and maintenance steps are not followed. It is also void if the equipment is stored or used outdoors, used without climate and humidity control, misused, or modified without Merrithew's approval.
Coverage applies to the original buyer with proof of purchase. Claims must fall inside the part's warranty period. Repaired or replaced parts are covered for the rest of the original period. The warranty does not cover finish damage, shipping, customs fees, or the cost of installing replacement parts.
Note on Wood Parts
Merrithew wood parts use natural Baltic Birch. Color shifts, knots, mineral streaks, oval patches, and biscuits are normal. They do not affect strength and fall within Merrithew's quality standards, so they are not grounds for replacement.
Full warranty terms by product: view the Merrithew Warranty page. Shop the range: Merrithew Pilates 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.
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.
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.
Every page below has real prices, real monthly payment examples, and the lender comparison for that category. Pick the one you are buying.
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.
| 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. |
Apply with two of the four and compare. It costs nothing and the spread between offers is often significant.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Yes. Affirm charges no prepayment penalties. Acorn Finance and most business lenders also allow early payoff without penalty.
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.
