I love the T-bow, so much so that I bought 17 of them! They stack one on top of each other and take up surprisingly little space in my back bedroom. I'm only reminded of them when I need to change the bed. When the mood is upon me I drag them out and take them to my Pilates classes. They add interest and make normal Pilates exercises much more challenging. My classes love them and so do I. When not in use they stack neatly in a corner.
Now the T-Bow has a rival - drum roll please - the Firms Wave has arrived!
The Firms Wave is similar to the T-Bow, it's shape is slightly different and it's made by the Firm a company in the USA whereas the T-Bow is made and manufactured in Switzerland.
How do the T-Bow and Wave compare?
1. Whereas the T-Bow is moulded into a single curved piece of high density plastic, The Wave has a brace to help give it strength. The size and shape are almost the same although the T-Bow is less bulky and easier to transport. Unlike the Wave, the T-Bow is stackable which is an advantage only if you have several of them.
2 If we look at price there is a large difference. The Wave is just under $100 on the other hand the T-Bow will set you back over $160 (If you require international shipping even more)
3. With the Wave you get a stack of extras included in the price. A wall chart showing you the basic moves, several DVD's which take you through basic to advanced exercises (Cardio, Strength and Fat Blasting). The T-Bow by comparison only comes with a wall chart and a small booklet.
4. To enhance your strength training exercises both the Wave and the T-Bow will allow for attachment of elastic exercise bands. They do not come included with either but can be bought cheaply and are readily available.
I rate both as excellent pieces of home exercise equipment which will burn calories and tone muscle. However the WAVE has my vote in terms of value for money and the package offered. - 15995
