What was your concern with this review?
I thought for a long time about buying a Veloped and I decided to take the risk! I wanted it for my vacation in Spain: dry, rocky, stony, and mountainous terrain. Total fiasco! It is not suitable for all terrains as advertised. Difficulty: unable to pass on wet sand and gravel. Narrow paths, footbridges and bridges are impassable because the Veloped is too wide. Going up, down the stairs and overcoming the curbs is impossible, even pushing a little doesn't help. In the mountains, with a side slope, the Veloped is difficult to steer: the front wheels drift and it takes a lot of strength and effort to stay on track and to avoid ending up in the ditch. Driving both front wheels is extremely difficult because the steering is too hard and therefore impossible. I am not very strong physically and I am severely disabled, I was hoping for more relief, instead I reach my physical limits.
The handlebar of the Veloped is too short, not even a dog leash or a shopping bag can be hung on it. The basket is also too small!
Engaging the parking brake is very cumbersome, in fact you need both hands. In the mountains: hold the walker, hold the dog's leash, then put on the brakes too!
Transportation: it is too big for a normal car, then you no longer have space for your vacation suitcases. Added to this is the constant assembly and disassembly of the Veloped, which is very difficult to follow without a person to assist you!
Suitable for flat countryside, but you won't need it there: I have a Topro outdoor walker, which isn't bad either.
Overall, I am very disappointed and sadly I would not buy it back as my wishes remained unfulfilled. It's really a shame!!
Simply superb!…
I have the Veloped 12 M and I'm extremely happy with it. I have muscular dystrophy, so walking is pure hell for me. We live in the countryside – country lanes, woods, and our garden are our home. Unfortunately, this is almost impossible for me with a…

I am 68 years old and was a long-distance walker/hiker/backpacker until last Fall 2019, when on a 100 mile/161 kilometer hike, my right hip went out. Walking was painful and difficult. I could barely walk a block. Covid-19 came and treatments became…

The Walker allows me to walk on paths as well as safely cross lawns without the help of other people. The usage is possible without bending your wrists. There is very positive feedback from other people regarding the bright red color.

Probably a little too early for a full review yet as I have only had my 14” medium nearly two weeks but already it has accompanied me on a two day mountain First Aid Course at Plas-y-Brenin in North Wales where it behaved impeccably clambering over b…

She is much admired particularly by me. She offers so much more stability over sticks, beautifully designed and made, the only thing I have added is a strap to clamp her together when manoeuvring in and out of the car. Looking at the brochure I was w…
