Customer Rating:      Summary: Good for the price, love the rebounder Comment: This is a good quality performer for the price. It does come with 2 DVDs: cardio workout and Level 1. So don't do like me and waste $60 purchasing other DVDs, I wish, they had mentioned in the description. The DVDs I purchased are very similar to the Level 1 DVD that came free (Upper body workout and lower body workout).
The rebounder workout is more challenging than I thought, it is a good workout, you feel refreshed and energized afterwards. Good burn on my legs and ab muscle.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Next Best Thing to Expensive Private Classes Comment: I took over a year of Pilates classes (on equipment) with a private instructor, and although, granted, this isn't as sturdy or solid as a "real" Pilates Reformer, it's still a valuable piece of workout equipment and as close to Pilates Reformer as you can get without paying $45-60 an hour.
(Before any Pilates instructors - whom I respect - get all up in arms about that statement, let me just say that I definitely wish I had the budget to continue paying for an instructor, because it is worth it - but if you don't have the budget, this is the next best thing.)
I'd recommend that if you're going to buy one, you take at least a few Pilates Reformer in-person classes first - the accompanying DVD is a bit pithy compared to "real" Pilates - but if you know what you're doing regarding Pilates positions, you can definitely make use of the Performer.
I've had mine for about 3 months, and although the two plastic covers on each far end do occasionally pop off (you assemble much of the machine yourself - not difficult - and those particular pieces are only attached with double-stick tape), the rest of it seems pretty sturdy given the price. I do not have mine up on a stand, and I prefer it that way, as I can tip it on its side, easily fold it, and slide it underneath the stairs at my flat. It IS quite heavy, but I only noticed that while taking it out of the box; once you dedicate a space for storing it, it can quickly be folded/unfolded and slid into/out of wherever you choose to keep it.
Performance-wise (no pun intended), I can do the majority of my previous Reformer routine on this machine, including The Hundred, Mermaid, Arm and Leg Circles, and Elephant, and I'm definitely feeling it in the muscles and seeing results.
I'd recommend it for several reasons - if you wish to seriously pursue Pilates but can't afford private instruction (although, again, learning before you use it will benefit you greatly) - or if there isn't a worthy Pilates Studio in your area. I've also noticed that having the equipment right in my flat encourages me to do Pilates 3x a week instead of the 1 session weekly I was doing before, when I went to an actual Pilates studio.
Good luck! :)
Customer Rating:      Summary: Looks brand new / Comment: I'm very happy with my pilates performer and it looks brand new. I saved myself so much money. I'm thrilled with my purchase.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Value Comment: It is a good machine for the price. I am very happy about this purchase. You can do a complete body workout.However, it has nothing to do with real reformer.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Bargain! Comment: I wanted to try the Stamina Aero Pilates Performer and was looking everywhere for a good price. I hesitated to order this one because it was refurbished, but it is just fine! It includes all I need and getting the rebounder too was amazing. This reformer is easy to fold and store and provides a safe and fun workout!
