What was your concern with this review?
The Veloped works great as a carrying aid when shopping and you have heavy groceries to bring home. In the store you don't need a shopping trolley; you just grab a basket and place it on the seat for the groceries, pay in the register and it carries it all home. There, the Veloped is a very handy and a great aid. However, we don't think it's fully functional as a walker for an elderly person.
It can feel wobbly since it doesn't have a wheel in each ""corner"", and it gets heavy when pushing uphill. Furthermore, we've tested the off-road driving, with all the wheels on the ground. Then turning gets difficult, and driving gets heavy for one who doesn't have so much own force to steer. The final verdict is that tie Veloped is best suited for someone who still has some balance and strength left.
All in all an excellent carrying aid for me who is in my 50's and has back issues and difficulties with heavy carrying, but not of any interest for my 95-year-old mother, who for the above-mentioned reasons prefers her regular walker.
Great Mobility Aid…
Has allowed me to walk in a fashion that increases my stride and I am quickly getting in better physical condition. I can walk in a more upright position which doesn't irritate my back like a previous walker did. It is amazing how the climbing tire i…
My Rolls Royce…
My Rolls Royce – a.k.a. Walker 12 – and me have now together undergone the ultimate test, namely the Stockholm winter 2018-2019 with snow plowing à la Stockholm municipality.
The sidewalks and walkways have either been covered in either 10 centime…
My Veloped has changed my life…
Since the operation to remove a tumour from my spinal cord, I can only walk with two crutches and this is a slow and painful process. I was finally told about rollators but thought they looked feeble and unattractive. My wish was to walk on the beach…
Excellent…
Love this, has helped me to walk further than I use to as I can sit, take a rest and walk for a bit further. It has the most comfortable seat. Highly recommend. It is also great for my elderly dog when she gets tired.…
Veloped Trek Large 14 inch…
I received my Veloped Trek Large 14-inch on Friday, 22/12, 2023, which is perfect for me. Ideal height, too. I can walk upright with it compared to my previous walker. On my doctor's advice, I will go out for long walks with it every day in the Sprin…
I would always choose it again...…
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I was made aware of your product (Veloped) by a friend.
I am 75 years old. I have Parkinson's disease and have been dependent on a rollator for several years… These rollators did not last long, so I was always looking fo…
Finally one that does what it should.…
I now own three rollators. This is my first one from Trionic. The first rollator from another company sounded like clanging metal as I walked along. It also got caught on all the broken pavements where I live and was therefore unstable. The second on…
I went to the seaside with my Veloped…
I went to the seaside for the first time with my Veloped in Texel. With the Veloped I was able to walk on the beach in the deep sand, which would not have been even contemplated with other devices. It was tiring, but doable. I was also able to get ve…
The Veloped – an ingenious device – we love it!…
After our 86-year-old mother's walking radius decreased due to unsteady gait, and she could only move around outside the home with an escort, she considered – albeit very ambivalently – a mobility aid. A "regular" walker was out of the question for h…
