Question 1

What is approx resistance on coils ? Can more resistance coils be purchased?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your interest in our SPX Home Reformer!  This unit has a state-of-the-art spring system for easy resistance adjustments that includes 4 x 100% (full tension) springs plus 1 x 50% (half tension) spring.  We also offer a High Precision Spring Package that includes 3 × 100% springs, 1 × 50% Spring and 1 × 25% Spring that you can purchase on www.merrithew.com. We recommend that you replace the springs on your Reformer every two years to ensure maximum performance and safety of your equipment at all times. Our springs are custom crafted using the finest quality wire.  If you have any further questions regarding your SPX Home Reformer model, our manufacturing process or our premier brand, STOTT PILATES®, please contact customerservice@merrithew.com.

Question 2

Are the springs replaceable if they wear out?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If they are not on amazon, Merrithew/Stott sells them from their website.  I actually recommend buying their 25% spring and sub it for one of the red(100%) springs that the machine comes with.

Question 3

I am mechanically challenged. Just how complicated is it to set up?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your interest in our SPX Home Reformer!  This unit comes 90% assembled for easy set-up.  It also includes an assembly manual (http://www.merrithew.com/support/equipment-manuals-assembly) and typically takes 15-20 minutes to assemble.  If you have any further questions regarding your SPX Home Reformer model, our manufacturing process or our premier brand, STOTT PILATES®, please contact customerservice@merrithew.com.

Question 4

How much space do I need to have on either side? Just enough for my arms to swing or more than that?

Accepted Answer

Hello! You should have enough space for both arms and legs to open the maximum range you have to the sides. Hope that helps!
