How to buy Pilates machines?

For the fastest, most accurate quote and delivery options, please include:

  • Full delivery address (street, number, city, postal code) and ideally a phone number (changing the delivery address later may increase the final shipping cost)

  • The model you’re most interested in, plus any preferences, budget, quantity, and intended use

  • Desired delivery timeframe (a longer lead time gives us more options)

  • If purchasing for a company: company details and, if available, a FinStat link

This helps us propose the widest range of options and plan delivery as well as alternatives. Lead times vary by machine color.

We've prepared a comprehensive overview of everything related to purchasing Pilates machines and planning equipment for your studio, home, or clinic.

How does the Pilates equipment market work?

Most brands keep only limited stock in European warehouses: Elina (Spain), Merrithew (Netherlands), Align-Pilates (UK/Germany). Stock levels fluctuate throughout the year and an item in stock today may be gone tomorrow. With supply tight, it’s essentially “first to pay, first served.”

Lead times & availability

  • If an item is in stock, standard delivery is 2–3 weeks from payment.

  • If you need more time to decide, we can check day-of availability; the maximum lead time is 4 months. Planning ahead is best.

Colors

  • Brands usually offer two standard upholstery colors: black and gray.

  • Each brand also has a custom palette; custom colors are made to order and take about 3–4 months.

Reservations & cancellations

  • You can reserve a machine with a 25% deposit—also required for non-standard colors.

  • Once the deposit is paid and the order enters production, the deposit is non-refundable.

  • For custom (non-standard) colors, this is a bespoke order; after the first payment installment is made, cancellation is no longer possible.

B2B purchases

  • For purchases made with a company ID (IČO), the 14-day right of withdrawal does not apply.

Delivery timing

  • Despite our best efforts, delays can occur due to third-party partners and international transport. Please allow buffer time when scheduling future classes or opening your space.

  • We’ll provide instructions on what to do if any issues arise.

On receipt of goods

  • Inspect the goods as soon as possible. You have 24 hours to report transport damage. Other defects are, of course, covered by warranty.

  • Long routes and multiple handovers can scuff outer packaging without affecting the product. You can ask the courier to mark “damaged packaging” just in case.

  • Open the box carefully so the machine can be repacked for return if visible damage is found. We will arrange a collection courier if needed.

  • Before accepting, read the delivery/acceptance report, which also includes your tracking number.

  • After unpacking, keep the original packaging until the machine is fully assembled and functioning.

  • If damaged, take photos and video immediately.

Non-acceptance 

  • If a shipment is not accepted, the carrier will charge additional transport costs for the futile trip. Please make sure you’re ready to receive the delivery; otherwise, re-delivery costs will apply.

How to choose your machines

  • We recommend starting at https://www.flexity.sk/pomocky-na-jogu-pilates-cvicenie-sport/ where you can use filters to pick brands and add parameters like the number of springs or the reformer height you need.
  • If you’re choosing equipment other than a reformer, narrow the results with the search bar using terms like “chair,” “barrel,” etc. We kept the original English product names to make navigation easier.
  • Next, use the Compare feature: add your selected products and view their specs side by side in a clean table.
  • If you’d like a visual overview, we’ll gladly send brand catalogs and presentations.
  • Our selection is constantly expanding—if you can’t find a specific product, don’t hesitate to write to us.

What does shipping cost?

  • Shipping is quoted per order due to frequent changes in European transport. Prices can vary slightly month to month, so a fresh calculation is always required.
  • As a guideline, expect roughly €90 for smaller items up to about €350 for large machines. For Merrithew, shipping may be somewhat higher.
