What to expect from studio reformer deals

Studio brands such as Balanced Body and Merrithew are discounted less often than budget home reformers, so any genuine saving on these machines is worth acting on.

Most Balanced Body machines are made to order and ship after a lead time. If it is a Christmas gift, check the delivery estimate before you buy.

Compare like with like: some listings include a sitting box, tower or stand. Our table lists exactly what each one is.
