What was your concern with this review?
I'm a 62-year-old woman from the Netherlands and last year I suffered a CVA, which caused my right side to be permanently unusable. So since then, I have been stuck in a wheelchair.
During the last year, I went through therapy to try and recover some use/movement of my right arm and leg. During the therapy, I met a fellow patient who had a lot of benefits from a Trionic Veloped to help him walk again.
As it turns out, the Trionic Veloped is the only walker you can use with one hand.
Its all-terrain wheels make it possible to walk everywhere – on uneven pavement, curbs, and cobbles and get by with limited ability in one of the legs.
I asked for information directly from Stephan at Trionic, and he answered all my questions very kindly and directly over both mail and telephone. We were able to put together a Veloped Tour for me to try.
It arrived duly, perfectly packed, and turned out to be easy for me to assemble.
Then I went to work!
Over the past two months having worked with the Veloped, which I had named 'Thomas' (the tank engine), I can honestly say it has changed my world. From being someone in a wheelchair to someone who stands and engages with other people on their eye level again.
The Veloped has me walking upright again!
For shopping, a doctor's appointment, or just to go for a walk with friends for fun! In shopping centres, a park or sightseeing. I can take it into restaurants and theatres easily.
It will take from work from you, as you will have to practice on the Veloped daily, but you will find improvements in your capabilities daily.
For anyone living in the Netherlands, who wants to know and has one-sided paraplegia, I would be happy to share experiences. I am sure Stefan at Trionic can put us in contact.
Fantastic service!…
I'm thrilled that TRIONIC offers every spare part for my VELOPED. And that's not all – they even provide a video showing how to install it.
Everything worked perfectly. Our German companies could definitely learn a thing or two from this service!

I am simply thrilled. Thanks to Veloped I have regained a piece of normal life. Finally, I can walk on the beach again. The assembly is very simple and disconnecting the wheels for transport by car is not very difficult: just a click and it is done! …

I love the Veloped, it changed my life! I am not afraid of walking on grass in my backyard or grandchildren’s athletic games, unpaved trails, let alone any kind of slightly uneven surface, think raised sidewalks, downed tree & plant debris scattere…
Good Chunky Lock…
Bought this to chain up the walker on those occasions when I can't get the walker into a cafe or shop.
Solid construction and so far has proved secure for my needs.…
