Elina Pilates Aluminium Reformer with Tower

Description

The Elina Pilates Aluminium Reformer with Tower is one of Elina’s most versatile professional machines: a full reformer paired with a folding tower (half-Cadillac) in a single, space-saving footprint. Built on an anodised aluminium frame with a silent, smooth carriage glide, it’s adaptable enough for a busy studio yet practical enough for a dedicated home space.

Its standout feature is that it’s the only reformer on the market that stacks horizontally without removing the tower, so multiple machines store side-by-side and free up floor space between sessions. You also choose your height level (HL1 to HL4), which sets how high the carriage and tower sit, letting you match the machine to your users and your ceiling.

Every height level includes the same complete package: a 5-spring reformer with quick-change footbar and retractable-style pulley system, plus a folding steel tower with push-through bar, roll-down bar, mat converter, and a full 8-spring tower set for hundreds of additional exercises.

Who is it built for and when it makes sense

• Studios and clubs that want a professional reformer plus tower in one footprint, with horizontal stacking to maximise floor space.
• Serious home users who want full reformer-and-tower training (a half-Cadillac) without committing to two separate machines.
• Buyers who want to match the machine to the room and the user — the HL1–HL4 height levels let you pick a lower, more compact setup or a taller one for bigger users and more tower travel.

When it’s not the right fit

• If you want a wooden-framed reformer, Elina’s Elite, Lignum, or Classic wood ranges are a better match; this is an aluminium machine.
• If you want a full Cadillac with a complete four-post frame, this is a single-tower (half-trapeze) setup, not a full trapeze table.
• If you have very limited ceiling height, check the tower height for your chosen HL level before ordering (up to 225 cm / 88.6 in on HL4, before adding clearance for standing work).

Key Features

Understanding the HL height levels

The HL number is the machine’s height level. It sets how high the carriage sits off the floor and how tall the tower stands. Every level shares the same features, springs, footprint, and included accessories — only the height (and price) changes:

• HL1 — the lowest setup. Carriage height 22 cm (8.7 in), tower 179 cm (70.5 in). The most compact, easiest to get on and off, and the lowest ceiling requirement.
• HL2 — tower 190 cm (74.8 in). A small step up in carriage and tower height.
• HL3 — tower 205 cm (80.7 in). A taller working surface and more overhead tower travel.
• HL4 — the tallest setup. Carriage height 62 cm (24.4 in), tower 225 cm (88.6 in). Best for taller users and anyone who prefers a higher carriage and maximum tower range.

If you’re unsure which height level suits your space and clients, email sales@pilatesmatters.com or call +1 (402) 726-1797 and we’ll help you choose.

Materials

Anodised aluminium structural frame with a baking-varnish finish for durability, a folding steel tower, durable vinyl upholstery, and a solid rock-maple roll-down bar.

Resistance system

The reformer carriage uses 5 springs: 1 light (yellow), 2 medium (green), and 2 strong (red). The tower adds an 8-spring double-grip set: 2 short light (yellow), 2 short medium (green), 2 long light (yellow), and 2 long medium (green), giving you a wide resistance range for both bed and tower work.

Upholstery colors

Available in a range of Elina upholstery colors. Email sales@pilatesmatters.com for current color options before ordering.

What’s included

Specifications

All four height levels share the same footprint and accessories. The figures below that differ by level are the carriage height and the tower height.

Space requirements

The machine measures roughly 230–232 cm long x 59 cm wide (90.6–91.3 in x 23.2 in). You also need clear space around it to move freely. As a practical guide, plan for a room that offers:

• Length: Allow extra room beyond each end of the frame for the box, jump board, and full arm and leg extensions.
• Width: Leave room on both sides of the 59 cm (23.2 in) frame to get on and off safely and for tower work.
• Ceiling height: Allow for your chosen tower height (179–225 cm / 70.5–88.6 in depending on HL level) plus headroom for standing exercises.

Assembly

• Some assembly is required.
• Transport wheels let you reposition and stack the machine once set up.
• An owner’s manual is provided for setup, proper use, and maintenance.

For assembly help, see our Assembly & Installation page for support options, including professional installation service.

Moving and storage

• This is the only reformer that stacks horizontally without removing the tower, so machines store neatly side-by-side.
• Four transport wheels make it easy to roll the machine and then set it horizontally for stacking.
• The steel tower folds down, which helps with both storage and stacking.

Maintenance Requirements:

• Upholstery: clean with water and a microfiber cloth. For deeper stains, use a tablespoon of neutral soap diluted in about 1.5 litres of water.
• Springs: to maintain tension and safety, plan to replace springs roughly every two years, depending on how intensively the machine is used.
