Supreme Pilates Machine

I just saw an infomercial on this product this morning and it looks really interesting. There's some discussion of it in a thread on infomercials in GD (link below).

Has anyone tried one of these or do you have any opinions of it?

Thanks.

Joni,
I have never seen that before but it looks interesting! IF you can fold it up and store it, I am SURE that I will eventually get one! I am always looking for new/advanced Pilates workouts.

Oh, oh, oh!!!

I saw that machine on one of the celeb "Fitness" shows that were on in the last week (it was either on VH1 or on E!). In fact, I may have seen someone using it more than once. It looked exactly like it, but perhaps it was a knockoff?

Now, the kicker - - is a celebrity doing the promo for the machine? If they they are then it may not be as great as it seems.

Patrick Duffy? Bobby Ewing Patrick Duffy? Now, my curiosity is really peaked. Wonder what he has to do with fitness equipment.

Ater I posted this it seems like I remembered....

someone saying a pilates machine they had that was too short, it was uncomfortable because you couldn't actually stretch/lay out. I wonder if it was this one?

I admit, I didn't read the entire "other" VF thread.

Edited to add: here is another VF thread on a QVC machine, this isn't the one I remember, but this one has good comments

I don't know, but if he's really been using it, which he says he has, it's worked, because he looks much leaner and meaner (even though he was the nice brother ) than he did the last time I saw him on TV.

has anyone used the Total Gym for pilates? Christie Brinkley and Chuck Norris claim that pilates studios use it like a reformer.

i often wondered about that.
