I would give this a five except for 2 very important exercise information that is missing This machine is so easy to use but the DVD’s lack 2 things that should be included and that is the breathing and Core strenghing exercise. I am sure if I know what I am looking for I could find them but I think this is a big minus for this product. Those are 2 aspects of Pilates that are probably the most important and they seem to be left out. If anyone has any idea of where I can get this information to go along with this machine then I would consider the machine perfect. Would love to hear from anyone…I need back strengthing exercises
