New to Market: Merrithew® Introduces Its First Wood Reformer
Merrithew® has launched the NX3 MAX™ Reformer, its first wood Pilates Reformer, designed for boutique Pilates studios, premium fitness clubs, hotels and wellness centres. The NX3 MAX™ Reformer was first showcased at The Pilates Journal Expo in Miami.
Crafted from FSC-certified maple, the NX3 MAX was developed by Merrithew’s engineers in collaboration with STOTT PILATES® Master Instructor Trainers and instructors from other Pilates methods. Prototype testing through the company’s Advisory Lab helped shape its final design.
