Hi ~ Does anyone have the high end Pilates from here at the Q?
I had a mid range one several years ago, and never replaced it after our fire. So, I am wondering if the "deluxe" model is worth the extra money?
I have a nice treadmill, but after falling last year, I am having difficulty with my knee and ankle/foot on the treadmill. I would like to get back to Pilates, but with all the new models, I don't know which one to choose.
If you have one, did you purchase it here, or elsewhere? Thank You for any replies.

If you're talking about this one, then yes, I have it- F184880
It is sturdy and is about the size of a coffin. You need a designated space to practice pilates as you won't be moving this anytime soon.

Yes, I know it is big. I had one before. I laugh about the wheels on it, like you could move it around the house? Wondering how much better this one is than the STAMINA line? That's the one I used to have. I notice this one has a larger/sturdier looking leg frame, and some oak parts. Nobody will be on it but me, so don't know if the several extra 100's is a must.

I have just the 3 cord model and I love, love it. For me, it is the mix of Pilates and rebounding. I am small so for me the "higher end" models weren't of interest. My understanding is the price goes up according to the style (wider bed, wider rebounder, more weight capacity, etc.). I didn't want or need these things. My machine gets quite a workout and gives me an incredible workout...the rebounder kicks serious butt, lol. I can swap out the cords at some point (red is the highest resistance). This is by far my favorite workout that I do. Sometimes if I am strapped for time, I just rebound, using the rebound only DVD. And its so easy on the knees, since you have that issue.

Thank You! I am looking at the STAMINA model. It's $300 cheaper than the model pictured on this thread (thanks to lolakimono). It has the 4 bands of resistance, and is on a stand. Although it is not as sturdy looking as the Pro one, I think it will do well for me. The Stamina looks like the one I used to have.
Thank you ladies!

I bought mine about 8 years ago. I have the 4 corded machine with the risers. I like the 4 cords, interchangeable because I use a different amount of cords for each exercise. Also, I like the riser because I do not have to crawl on the floor.

I have seen the best price for the 3 cord machine that I have on woot. s/h $5. No tax.
