Merrithew Vertical Frame - SPX Max

Is the Vertical Frame worth the investment for home users?

Absolutely, if you're serious about Pilates. The Vertical Frame converts your SPX Max Reformer into a Cadillac-style system, essentially giving you two pieces of equipment in one. For dedicated home users or small studios, it eliminates the need to purchase a separate Trapeze Table, saving both money and floor space while dramatically expanding your exercise options and training depth.

Does the Vertical Frame come with a warranty, and what is the return policy?

The Merrithew Vertical Frame is backed by Merrithew's manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Specific warranty terms and return eligibility may vary, so we recommend reviewing our store's return policy or contacting our support team before purchasing. We're happy to walk you through coverage details to make sure you're fully confident in your decision.

What is the Merrithew Vertical Frame for the SPX Max?

The Vertical Frame is an attachment that converts your SPX Max Reformer into a Cadillac-style workout system. It adds overhead bars and attachment points that allow you to perform a much wider range of exercises, mimicking a Trapeze Table. It's a space-saving upgrade designed specifically for SPX Max Reformers used in studios, clinics, or dedicated home setups.

Which Reformer models is the Vertical Frame compatible with?

The Merrithew Vertical Frame is specifically designed to integrate with the SPX Max Reformer. It is not universally compatible with all Reformer models. If you're unsure whether your current Reformer qualifies, contact our team with your model details and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.

What additional exercises can I do with the Vertical Frame attached?

Adding the Vertical Frame unlocks Cadillac-style movements including roll-back bar work, push-through bar exercises, arm and leg spring work, and hanging exercises. These movements target the full body with greater variety, making it ideal for rehabilitation, flexibility training, strength conditioning, and advanced Pilates programming that a standard Reformer alone cannot provide.

Do I need professional help to assemble and install the Vertical Frame?

Assembly is manageable for most users following the included instructions, but due to the frame's size and the importance of secure attachment to your Reformer, having a second person assist is strongly recommended. If you're unsure about installation, a certified technician or fitness equipment professional can ensure everything is correctly and safely assembled for worry-free use.
