Product Review

Finally one that does what it should.

Rating:

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 one from another company didn't make the awful noise but still got caught on all the dodgy pavements where I live. Then the frame would tip forward and slam back down onto my shins. I got fed up with being bruised by the very equipment that was supposed to help me stay on my feet. Clearly where I live is so badly maintained that I needed an all-terrain utter monster of a rollator just to walk along the pavements.

The Veloped Trek did not disappoint. It laughs in the face of upturned paving slabs and stupid drop kerbs that haven't been made properly. Bonus-because it has wheels bigger than my head, I can take it into the woods. (Which appear to be flatter than the pavements!)

The only downside is that I sometimes lurch from side to side and as it's a three-wheeler, it sometimes lurches with me, but it is still stable enough for me to recover. I do need narrower hips to sit comfortably in the seat, but I'm working on that!

  • Brilliant walker…

    Can’t believe that this walker has made such a difference to my life. I can walk over uneven ground, cobblestone paths and rough ground without needing to push any harder than on even terrain, thus avoiding painful arms and shoulders. The walker is r…

  • Walker 12-inch wheels.…

    I have had my Walker for about 6 weeks. I am delighted with it. It is very well made, sturdy, folds well for putting into the car for transport and is not too heavy. The service I have received is excellent. I had major spinal surgery for cancer and …

  • From the neighbor to your own Veloped…

    Saw it at my neighbor's house and bought it because I was impressed by every aspect. It looks great, handles well (the brakes and function)—which is difficult to grasp for someone with dementia (in our case), but otherwise the brakes work perfectly. …

  • Lockdown…

    The lock is strong and secure. It took me a little while to use it correctly as it has a very strong wire and it can be a bit stiff to manoeuvre in place. Now I am used to it and I appreciate how safe it keeps my Tourer.…

  • A really great product…

    A stable and modern walking aid, could just as well be used by younger people with or without mobility issues. Works very well on ice and some snow. For us with lots of snow during winter, you might imagine putting skis under the wheels, or using the…

  • Congratulations to the whole Trionic team!…

    What you have come up with is truly impressive. I can only recommend this walker! A few weeks ago I had an accident where my mobility has been compromised. Since I didn’t want to miss small hikes, I was looking for a stable walker. The Veloped Trek d…

  • Great product…

    I have the Walker 14er and love it for walking the dog as it goes anywhere. Bought this one to use when I go out shopping, etc. and am so pleased with it as I feel much safer when I use it. I do find it a little bit heavy but thoroughly recommend it…

  • The best set of wheels we could find.…

    My wife's Trionic, as I call it, has exceeded our expectations and has given my wife freedom to roam and has coped with rough and uneven ground as though it was flat! Plus whenever she wants to rest, finds the seat comfortable.

    We adjusted the h…

  • Never again without it!…

    In spring I was saying:
    If I can't walk better until autumn, I will buy an all-terrain rollator for the vacation in the mountains.

    My walking didn’t get better and my back was always crooked while walking. My son helped me with the search and the…
