Amazon.com Product Description

Expand your Pilates programming options with the multifunction Stott Pilates split-pedal stability chair. Ideal for folks who need to stay in a seated or upright position, the stability chair helps rebalance your muscles while providing a full-body workout. It also facilitates high-performance exercise for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and rehab clients. And because it's compact and easy to move--with two pedals that move independently or lock together securely to function as a single unit--the chair is perfect for studios or gyms with limited space.

While stability chair workouts typically focus on the legs and torso, the split-pedal chair is adjustable to train other muscle groups as well, including arms, back, chest, and more. As a result, users can achieve upper- and lower-body strength and conditioning during every Pilates workout. Plus, the chair's smaller base of support and dual pedals allow for bilateral, unilateral, and reciprocal movements, helping improve stability and overall balance. And to facilitate lunges and dips, the chair's fully adjustable handles attach and detach easily and lock securely. Other features include a double-steel frame for increased durability and stability, a spring-tension design that adjust quickly with a unique hook-on system for a quick interchange, ultra-soft foam pedals, smooth-rolling wheels for transport, and a seat that measures 23.5 inches wide by 15 inches deep.

The split-pedal chair--which is equipped with two heavy chair springs, two light chair springs, and three hook-on spring attachments--measures 22.5 by 55.5 by 21.5 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 82 pounds. The chair carries a three-year warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Harder than a reformer!, May 28, 2010
By 
This review is from: Stott Pilates Split-Pedal Stability Chair with Handles (Sports)
I have the Stott chair and the Stott SPX reformer, and I adore both of them. The chair was my first purchase, because it was less expensive and required less room. When I want a hardcore Pilates workout, I choose the chair. Because there is less room for support (the seat versus the bed of the reformer), the chair requires more core strength for correct execution of the practice. Even the footwork is harder on the chair! I would not get a chair without having had formal Pilates apparatus training. If you have had reformer or chair lessons, though, this is a great piece of home equipment.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid Pilates Chair, April 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Stott Pilates Split-Pedal Stability Chair with Handles (Sports)
After breaking the Malibu Pilates chair spring, I decided to upgrade to a real Pilates Chair. And the Stott Pilates is that and more. It's solid. You have to assemble it, but with patience you can assemble it perfectly in about an hour. There are four big springs (one heavy and one light for each foot platform. The vinyl padding is quite comfortable and thick. The large rectangular shaped pads for the foot pedals are excellent. This is an excellent piece of commercial quality gym equipment that will provide excellent muscular and aerobic conditioning. It comes with the Essential and Intermediate video that is good! I would have given it five stars, but it's not simple to change from split pedals to one pedal easily. But I think that it's probably better to keep the pedals split as then you can learn to balance out your muscles better since you would have to move the pedals at the same rate. I think the tension with the springs is very good and the movement is silent and... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Fine quality, workmanship & design, December 1, 2010

The finest design and construction. Highest quality materials. Built to last. Amazingly versatile. As others mention, it is more challenging for some exercises than the reformer, but it is great for those wanting sitting or standing up exercises. Fits in a small space.

While Stott offers many excellent video & written materials to support the stability chair, I highly recommend a teacher -- at least at first, and then an occasional checkup.

It's not about getting old! Keep moving with functional exercises. It is therapy. Or, if you're an athlete, add this to your training and take your performance to a higher level.
