This reformer delivers studio-quality Pilates without the commute, thanks to its 24-inch swivel touchscreen streaming 250+ on-demand classes. The Frame Fitness Pilates Reformer eliminates the spring-swapping hassle that makes traditional reformers feel like mechanical puzzles, replacing manual adjustments with color-coded touch buttons.
Smart Features Meet Ancient Practice
Your living room becomes a high-end studio with Frame’s integrated approach to connected fitness. The touchscreen swivels 180 degrees for optimal viewing angles, while the class library filters workouts by muscle group, difficulty, or even your current mood. Progress tracking remembers your preferences across household users, turning each session into data-driven improvement.
Co-founder Dua Lipa’s involvement adds celebrity cache, but the real innovation lies in the dual-spring technology. This patented system eliminates the need to manually swap springs between exercises—something anyone who’s wrestled with traditional reformer hardware will appreciate.
Space-Conscious Design Meets Urban Reality
Measuring 94 inches long when extended, the Frame compresses to a remarkably low profile for storage at just 13 inches high. Built-in wheels make repositioning manageable, though you’ll still need dedicated floor space and two feet of clearance on all sides. The firm cushioning provides necessary grip during resistance work, while the sleek aesthetic won’t clash with your carefully curated apartment.
Premium Pricing Demands Justification
At $4,999 plus $39.99 monthly for full class access, Frame positions itself firmly in luxury territory. That’s significantly more than competitors like Balanced Body’s Metro IQ, though none offer comparable smart features. White glove delivery and a three-year hardware warranty (plus 12 months for the screen) provide some reassurance for the investment.
The math works if you’d otherwise pay for regular studio sessions—premium reformer classes easily cost $40-60 per session. But you’re betting on consistent home use to justify both the space commitment and ongoing subscription costs. For serious Pilates practitioners tired of scheduling around studio availability, Frame’s convenience factor might tip the scales.
