Stackable Maple Studio Reformer
The Elite is Elina Pilates' professional reformer built for maximum performance and functionality, and it was the first stackable wooden reformer on the market. It is made from premium maple wood with stainless steel metal parts and is in use in hundreds of studios worldwide.
A 7-position quick-change footbar, a 4-position spring bar with two rows of prestressed anchor points and quick-height pulley bars let an instructor reset the machine between clients in seconds. Wheels on the frame and the stacking design mean two or three units can live in the floor space of one.

Features
First Stackable Wooden Reformer
The Elite stacks with the machines above and below it, so a studio can store several units in a single machine's footprint. Integrated wheels make repositioning a one-person job.
Premium Maple and Stainless Steel
The frame is built from premium maple wood with stainless steel metal parts, engineered for hundreds of studios in continuous daily use.
Six-Spring Resistance System
Two light yellow, two medium green and two strong red springs mount on a 4-position spring bar with two rows of prestressed anchor points, so resistance can be graded finely for any client.
Seven-Position Quick-Change Footbar
The footbar changes position in seven steps with a quick-release mechanism, and the pulley bars change height just as fast with a removable quick-release system.
Adjustable to Every Body
Shoulder pads adjust across 4 positions and the headrest across 3, and the fastening strap slides and adjusts along the entire rail.
Complete Studio Bundle
The Elite ships with the jump board, padded box and standing platform, plus a full handle set: double cotton handles for hands and feet, padded handles and a foot handle.

Installation
It arrives semi-assembled
Elina ships its apparatus part-built and states that assembly is designed to be done without professional assistance: the frame comes as one piece and you add the accompanying parts. Expect to fit the footbar, ropes and any tower or box components supplied with your configuration.
Plan for two people
Delivery is to street level, and at 187 lb this is not a machine to move alone. Two people, a clear path from the curb to the room, and about an hour is the realistic picture. Measure the doorway and any turn at the top of a staircase before delivery day rather than after.
Tools
The fixings and keys needed are supplied in the packaging. No drilling and no wall fixing for a free-standing reformer; wall units and boards are the exception and do need fixing into structure.
First session setup
Once it is together, run the carriage end to end a few times to seat the wheels, check the rope lengths match on both sides, and confirm the footbar locks positively into every position before loading the springs to full.
Resources
Warranty, Shipping and Returns
This apparatus is covered by the manufacturer's warranty from the date of purchase: a 10-year structural warranty on the frame and welds and a 2-year warranty on all other components. Upholstery and fabric are covered for 90 days against defects in normal use.
To keep the warranty valid: use the equipment indoors in a climate-controlled space, follow the maintenance guidelines in the manual, and replace springs every two years on spring-loaded equipment. The warranty applies to the original purchaser with proof of purchase and covers repair or replacement of defective parts at the manufacturer's option. Warranty claims are handled through us with Elina Pilates' technical service.
Free curbside freight delivery
in the contiguous United States (we do not ship to Alaska, Hawaii or Puerto Rico). Your equipment ships via LTL freight carrier, carefully packed and secured to a wooden skid. Curbside delivery includes liftgate service, where the driver unloads to the curb as close to your building as possible. We recommend having two people available to carry the equipment inside; equipment arrives semi-assembled and is designed to be set up without professional help.
Lead times
Elina Pilates equipment is built at the factory in Spain. In-stock items in standard Black or Grey upholstery typically deliver in 2 to 4 weeks. Special upholstery colors are made to order and take approximately 10 weeks. We confirm your delivery estimate when your order is processed, and the carrier will call to schedule delivery.
Inspect on delivery
please note any damage on the carrier's waybill before signing, and report damaged, missing or incorrect items within 48 hours of receipt. Do not open boxes with box cutters, because blades can damage upholstered parts.
We accept returns within 30 days of delivery on eligible items. Equipment must be unused, in its original packaging with all instructions, accessories and documentation. All returns require a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number issued before shipping the item back; the customer is responsible for return shipping costs.
Non-returnable
made-to-order items (including special upholstery colors), large equipment (reformers, cadillacs, towers, ladder barrels, chairs, wall units and boards, barrels and arcs), accessories and spare parts, except where covered by warranty. If you receive a damaged, defective or incorrect item, contact us within 48 hours and we will make it right.
About Elina Pilates
Elina Pilates has designed and built Pilates apparatus in Navarra, northern Spain since 2007, from its own plant in the Noaín-Esquíroz industrial park outside Pamplona. Close to two decades in, its machines are in studios across five continents.
Rock maple is the house timber, chosen for strength and dimensional stability across the professional wood range; the aluminium machines use anodised high-strength extrusion. One detail runs through nearly the whole catalogue, a near-silent carriage on eight polyurethane wheels with high-precision bearings. Machines are developed with working Pilates teachers, and Elina holds multiple patents and registered designs.
The Elite range
is Elina's flagship: rock maple and stainless steel, built for intensive professional use and, unusually for a wood reformer, stackable, so a studio can clear the floor between classes. The Elite Reformer carries a seven-position quick-release footbar and six springs on a double-height bar; the 2026 Elite Advanced replaces that with a sliding "infinite" footbar locking at nine points along the frame. The tier also covers the Elite Cadillac Reformer, Combo Chair, Ladder Barrels and Spine Corrector.
The Pilates Works is an approved Elina Pilates retailer. Equipment is supplied new with the full manufacturer's warranty, and we handle any claim directly with Elina.
