What was your concern with this review?
I have a rare neurological condition Hereditary Spastic Paresis which causes muscle stiffness, balance issues, and consequently mobility problems. I have used walking poles for the last couple of years but when I walk I no longer enjoy my surroundings as I am so busy looking at the ground and concentrating so I don't fall. I thought long and hard about buying a walker as it felt like giving in but I was equally fed up of hanging off my husband or treating a walk like a battle to stay upright rather than an enjoyable experience. After much research, I came across the Veloped and ordered it in July.
I can honestly say it has changed my life, I am learning to enjoy my walks and not stare at the ground constantly. I am getting used to steering it, I prefer 2 wheels down as it feels more stable and there is a definite knack to turning it in that mode, but the more I use it the better I get.
I am now walking every day and on the 8th of Oct, I start a 100-mile walking challenge to be completed in 4 weeks for MND research. I need to walk 3.2 miles every day over that period to reach my target which will be hard, I would never have considered this without my Veloped. I seriously cannot recommend the Veloped enough, I've got all the gadgets for it and love it. It has definitely been a big investment but worth every penny, life-changing in such a good way.
Happy Customer…
Good Morning, just thought I would let you know how your product has made my Dad's life so fulfilling.
He is 93 years old, hearing impaired and has very little sight due to macular degeneration. He has also suffered two recent strokes. So things lik…
Checked out very thoroughly.…
Since the beginning of July 2018, I own a Veloped Tour 14.
On the internet, I came across the homepage of the Swedish company Trionic. I immediately ordered the catalogue offered there and received it in 3 days.
Through my 30 years of work as a nu…
Wishing you a happy new year and partly thanking you for my Trionic 12er…
The delivery was remarkably fast, the packaging was beautifully designed and the 12er is perfect for my needs. I actually managed to get down to the beach to test it on sand and am very happy with the result. In addition, it is so quiet on all surfac…
Really pleased I bought this…
Having been using a wheeled walker for six months or so, I was unhappy that its small wheels were only useable on smooth surfaces.
I bought the Walker 14er as it was meant to be good at handling rougher terrain and steps. I can confirm that it does …
Upsala…
I can finally walk upright with my new walker and do not have to look at the ground to avoid potholes and the like. My young grandchildren call to each other to be quick to catch up with Oma. At 84 years old I find it a bit heavy to get into my boot,…
Don't think about it, get it.…
I have used the Tour now for a couple of weeks. Am absolutely amazed at the difference it makes to walking. Have been using a standard 4-wheel walker and walking was very limited. After about a hundred yards or so the pain in my back was such that I …
Glad I bought it!…
I am very pleased with my Veloped walker. It is easy to walk with it in the woods and I am able now to walk places I could not walk before. Very happy with my purchase.

Good concept for replacement…
I needed to replace a brake lever because the thread for the clamping screw was worn out. I looked for the instructions on this site and have to say it was super simple to replace the lever. Simply remove the handle, pull off the brake lever, remove …
A well-designed device…
I can handle the rollator very well.
Suggestion for improvement:
A cover with a zipper for the basket so that the items taken along and after shopping, for example, are not visible.
And for the locking screws, an Allen key would be more practica…
