Too big for urban environment

Rating:

What was your concern with this review?

I bought a Veloped with 14-inch wheels. As an off-road walker, it is the best.

But it is simply too large for an urban environment. I have major problems going through store doors with it. Using it on an urban sidewalk also is not easy due to its extra width.

While the unit folds up for storage and transport, it tends to open up. I had to create my own velcro latch to keep it closed.

Part of me would return it due to the size, except it is the only walker I found that works well on sand.

  • Fantastic product!…

    I'm very unsteady on my feet, but thanks to the Veloped Trek 14er M, walks in the woods are possible again and they're really fun. My dog is also thrilled that she can now explore the woods, which is her favourite activity. We are both delighted.

  • Fantastic product!…

    The Veloped Tour is the Rolls Royce of rollators (infact it isn't correct to call it a rollator-its so much more) I thought long and hard about making this purchase as it isn't cheap but am so glad that I decided to buy it. For someone like me who ha…

    Just a few words of praise for my Trionic Walker.

    I fell Friday week ago and broke my hip. I am 67 and have Post Polio Syndrome. I own both Walker and Veloped but following surgery and half hip replacement my Walker has really come into its own. M…

    Despite Corona! Ordered on Monday (June 22nd, 2020) in Uppsala, and on Friday (June 26th, 2020), my 14-inch Trionic Walker was at my doorstep. Also, thanks to the excellent logistics from UPS.

    In the meantime, I have truly tested the Trionic Walke…

  • The Veloped Has Changed My Life - Yippee!…

    My bicycle accident, four years ago, left me with such poor balance, that I struggled to walk with a stick. In fact, I found myself very reluctant to walk even short distances. There is the standard red rollator, something many elderly people have, b…

    I have waited to write this review as i wanted to experience my husband using it for a few weeks. We are absolutely delighted with it. my husband, once an active even hyperactive runner, cyclist and mountain climber is now quite disabled. he was unab…

  • Love it!…

    I already own a Veloped that I bought second-hand and use daily at our local country park so know how good the quality is and how useful they are. I wanted a smaller walker that would fit in the footwell of the car with the seat flipped up so I can t…

    My used Veloped has a non-original wheel. This wheel has a broken valve. I ordered an original tube and replaced it myself. I've never done that before; I'm 68 years old, and I did it alone. I was very proud of myself.…

  • Overall, I am satisfied.…

    I am 86-year-old and weigh 58 kg.
    The device looks good (to be envious), is well thought out and easy to assemble. What struck me:
    The heavy strain on the arm muscles
    - on uneven forest paths,
    - on inclines (effort needed to push uphill and to h…
