The Align Pilates C8-Pro Reformer with Full Cadillac mounts Align's full stainless steel cadillac frame over the C8-Pro studio reformer, creating a reformer and cadillac combination on a single footprint.
The C8-Pro runs on 8 PU wheels in anodised aluminium runners with 106.5 cm of travel and a Rapid Change spring bar. In Align's current reformer line, the C8-Pro is the model listed for the full cadillac.
The frame arrives with a trapeze and fluffy foot support, fuzzy handles, sliding spring eyelets, a push through bar with safety strap and a roll down bar, plus 12 springs for cadillac work.

Features
Full cadillac over the reformer A four post stainless steel frame surrounds the C8-Pro, opening up trapeze, hanging and spring work across the whole length of the bed.
Trapeze and fuzzies The trapeze with fluffy foot support and the pair of fuzzy handles hang from the top frame, with the trapeze carried on very strong springs.
Push through bar with safety strap The push through bar is designed for push and swing through exercises with the supplied springs, and its quick release safety strap stops the bar swinging down under tension.
Sliding spring positions Two pairs of rapid adjust double eyelet spring holders slide on the uprights, and the cross bars move to place springs where each exercise needs them.
Rapid Change spring bar On the reformer, the spring bar lifts into a new position with the springs attached, using one hand.
Quiet 8 wheel carriage Eight PU wheels in anodised aluminium runners give 106.5 cm of soft, quiet travel for reformer classes.

Installation
Build the reformer The C8-Pro arrives in 2 boxes and the main box weighs around 40 kg, so two people are needed. Align puts reformer assembly at 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Check height and fit the uprights Align's cadillac guide calls for 2.45 m of height clearance to insert the poles. Loosen the grub screws on all four corners, then insert the uprights one at a time.
Assemble the top frame Fit the corner caps, slide the trapeze carriage over the cross bars and bolt the corners together. Attach the push through bar, trapeze and safety strap, using carabiners where springs meet the frame and dog clips where they meet a bar or handle.
Align-Pilates covers this reformer with its limited commercial warranty, which runs from the date of purchase for the original owner and allows studio use of up to 37.5 hours a week with a user weight limit of 330 lb (150 kg). Metal and aluminium frames and welded components carry ten years. Wooden frames and the spring bar mechanism carry five years. Footbar mechanisms carry three years and other non-wear components two years. Ropes, straps, clips, handles and wheels carry one year.
Springs are covered for two years or 3,000 hours, whichever comes first, in studios running up to five reformers, and for one year or 3,000 hours in studios running six or more. Upholstery is covered for 90 days from delivery. Wear and tear, misuse, unauthorised modification, finish scratches and rust are excluded, and the cover depends on following the maintenance instructions in the manual.
Shipping Delivery is free anywhere in the United States. When the item is in stock, Align-Pilates ships it within two business days of confirmation. Large equipment is strapped to a pallet and moved by freight carrier, who will call ahead to book a delivery window; the handover is curbside, so line up a second person to help carry it in. Allow 1 to 3 weeks from order to delivery, and we forward tracking once the shipment is collected.
Check before you sign Look over each carton when it arrives. Record any damage on the delivery paperwork, take photos and let us know within 48 hours.
Returns Align-Pilates does not accept returns on reformers, cadillacs, chairs or ladder barrels, so this is a final sale once dispatched. We recommend confirming dimensions, ceiling height and access before ordering. Damaged, defective or incorrect deliveries reported within 48 hours are put right with the manufacturer, and orders can be cancelled without charge until they leave the warehouse.

Model
This OneAlign Pilates C8-Pro Reformer with Full Cadillac
Do I need anything else to use it as a cadillac bed?
Align recommends its Platform Extender and Mattress Converter to turn the reformer into a solid bed for cadillac work. Neither is included in this bundle.
How much ceiling height is required?
Align's assembly guide calls for 2.45 m of height clearance to insert the cadillac poles, so measure the room before ordering.
Which reformers take the Full Cadillac?
Align lists the C2-Pro and C8-Pro reformers and the A2 cadillac base. The C1 and C8-S cannot take it.
Can the push through bar take body weight?
No. Align designs the bar for push and swing through exercises with its springs only. The safety strap stops it swinging down but does not make it safe to sit, stand or hang on.
Is it suitable for a commercial studio?
Yes. C-series reformers carry Align's commercial warranty, covering use of up to 37.5 hours per week with a 150 kg user limit.
