Product Review

Good product, but be careful downhill

What was your concern with this review?

This is an excellent rollator for mobility outdoors. I am an MND sufferer who struggles for balance while walking. Before using this product, I normally relied on hiking sticks when venturing outdoors. This rollator has given me more confidence when on long walks in varying terrain, and has also given my wife more relief in not having to always be by my side to ensure I don't fall!

The product is very easy to assemble and to disassemble, and therefore to transport. I was also able to carry it overseas on a flight to Australia recently. I purchased a purpose-made bag in which the disassembled rollator could be easily kept in the hold.

If I have one criticism, it is that when going downhill, the rollator's weight and momentum means that it sometimes gets away from me, so that I have to brake and my feet had to catch up with it on several occasions. Maybe a built-in slowing anti-gravity mechanism could be attached in future designs?

But overall, this is a super product to help liberate mobility compromised people and enable them to live a healthy life outdoors!

  • My Veloped makes me safe…

    Great to be able to take brisk walks with my Veloped in the green area close to my neighborhood. To get there, I pass street crossings, where the Veloped smoothly climbs up and down the curbs. Since the Veloped is easy to "fold" and load in the trunk…
