The Half Cadillac allows you to perform the majority of the 
repertoire of the Cadillac on your reformer. No modification is 
needed to attach the unit and assembly takes around 20 min-
utes. 

The mattress insert works in conjunction with the platform ex-
tender to convert the A8-Pro in to a full size bed. Each item is 
available separately

Note on A Series Accessories

Please note that all the A8-Pro accessories are compatible with the earlier A2 Series of reformers and are 
interchangeable, so both models can easily be used in the same studio

A8-Pro Reformer you can order higher or lower legs to change your reformer. The change is easy and only  
requires an allen key.

Rehab legs 

Low legs.

Standard legs.
