Product Review

I suffer from polyneuropathy, so I have really bad balance and vacillate a lot when I walk.

What was your concern with this review?

Sticks don't really help, and it's so uncomfortable that at some point you don't even want to go out anymore. Three months ago, it was clear to me that I would need a rollator if I wanted to enjoy being out in nature again.

Before buying, I informed myself very carefully. I know a lot about technology and realised that for my walks and hikes conventional rollators were not suitable because of their flimsy construction and small wheels. The good brochure and also the Trionic website are very helpful and informative.
I only receive a very small pension, and the health insurance company does not provide any subsidy either. Despite the price, which seemed high at first, I decided to go ahead and order the 14er Walker. It arrived after only three days. It is one of the best investments I have made so far! The device is perfectly designed, the materials are absolutely high-quality, and the workmanship is first-class.
I live in the mountains, and here we mainly have country and forest paths. I've already been out and about a lot with my walker. If it's not raining or snowing, I go out every day again, even when there's snow. I'm glad I chose the big wheels, they roll over everything, so to speak. The adjustment of the grips is wonderfully simple, so I quickly found the ideal position, which I also change from time to time, depending on how I feel. Only the brakes should be more sensitive, as they are very strong. I only have a very small car, but since the wheels are really easy to take off and put back on, I can load the Walker without any problems.
The Walker totally thrills me, and I find now that I know and use it that it is not expensive at all, on the contrary!

  • Technic of folding and holding…

    I have to go through three tight doors to come into my apartment. To keep the Veloped folded, I am holding it together with a small bungee cord. Is there a better idea?

    At the locker, the small cover is sadly not holding and slides always to the s…
