This is the 81.5 in compact reformer with a full tower fitted, which is fourteen inches shorter than BASI's studio-standard machine and still runs reformer, tower and raised mat programming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThirteen springs cover both stations from the first session: five on the reformer, eight on the tower, plus fourteen carabiners. The riser uses BASI's VPS pulley, which slides to any height so rope height is set to the client rather than to a fixed hole, and the push-through bar adjusts for the same reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo things this frame does not have, and both are worth knowing now. There is no trapeze swing, so the Cadillac repertoire is out.

The main wooden frame and structural woodwork run to ten years. Metal profiles and components, F2 hardware, springs, plastic parts and fasteners run to two years. Elastomer-coated parts, meaning the footbar, hand bar, pedals, stoppers, handles and wheels, run to one year. Mats, upholstered surfaces and fabric accessories run to ninety days. Everything is measured from the invoice date and applies to the original purchaser, and it does not pass on if the apparatus is sold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead the spring clause before you file the paperwork. On spring-loaded apparatus, BASI expects springs changed at two years or 3,000 hours of use, whichever lands first, and warns that failing to do so may void cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivery inside the United States is free. Crated apparatus travels on a freight truck and the carrier rings to fix a window with you, handing over at the kerb rather than carrying it inside, so have a second person and a measured route ready. Parcel-sized items generally arrive 7 to 10 business days from dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSign nothing before you have looked. Damage or a missing carton has to appear on the Proof of Delivery at the moment of delivery, with the claim raised inside five business days, or the manufacturer declines liability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnused equipment in its original packaging can be returned for 30 days from delivery, with no restocking fee and refunds settled within 7 business days of arrival. Cancelling before the apparatus leaves the factory is free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout BASI Systems\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBASI Systems builds the apparatus used across BASI Pilates, the education body Rael Isacowitz founded.

Beech hardwood frames, aircraft-grade aluminium for tracks and load-bearing hardware, orthopaedic padding under anti-slip antibacterial vinyl.
