What was your concern with this review?

I’m 37 with primary progressive multiple sclerosis. I’ve been using rollator walkers for 3-4 years. They are great for indoors but lack completely when the ground is anything but smooth.

To stay mobile, I need to walk regularly. I searched for a walker with pneumatic tires for a while, but reviews always pointed out poor quality. When a fellow with PPMS recommended Trionic, I was eager to research.

I’m in the US and was concerned it wouldn’t be available for me without outrageous shipping. I was wrong! I got the free catalog and spoke with customer service to make sure I chose the right one for my height. The cost was the hardest to comprehend until I received it.

Walker arrived fully assembled and ready for use. The quality couldn’t be better. I’ve been using it for 3 months. Besides my local walks, I’ve done the MS walk, taken it to a Colorado ranch, and did a Mudgirl obstacle 5k.

My arms and hands don’t fatigue as it rides smoothly over every type of surface (grass, pebbles, stone, sand, etc.). The seat with a backrest is perfect for my frequent necessary breaks to rest. It’s comfortable with just enough give and support. The only area I’ve had to adjust to is the breaks; they are sensitive. I'm sure my husband can figure out how to adjust. Currently, there is an in/between wheels lock with even the slightest pressure from the breaks.

Overall, I recommend this Walker 100% for anyone who needs extra support outside. (I needed the four-point frame for the extra balance and stability as well, so I haven’t tried their other frame).

    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.…

  • Great health and pleasure benefit…

    Due to an increasing neurological problem, I could only walk about 100 m before having to stop and sit down. On my first outing with the Walker, I could easily do a 400 m distance without the need to stop. I have gradually been able to increase my di…

  • Walker…

    I love my new walker. It is great going over grassy and rocky areas.
    The only issue that I have is when I put it into the back of my Subaru Impreza. It is somewhat hard to put it in and lay it down. Any suggestions?…

  • Better than any other…

    At last, a walker that does not get stuck at the slightest edge, with large, very stable tyres that allow it to cope very well with uneven roads, and even curbs or small steps are no problem. With a standard walker with small hard rubber wheels, thos…

  • 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…

  • Help with walking with Parkinson's Disease…

    Excellent product. Sturdy, well made and perfect for walking both in our village and the local forest. The design for going up curbs is brilliant. Brilliant and efficient service, thank you.…

  • Veloped Tour 14"…

    I have been using the Veloped Tour rollator with 14-inch wheels every day for two months. The solid construction fully meets the expectations placed on it: ease of movement, low vibration, and mobility especially off-road. The ingenious construction …

  • It drives great on all surfaces & better than other walkers…

    The stability on uneven terrain is especially noteworthy. The Veloped is a bit bulky- but it can transport a lot of stuff from our dog over groceries to camping equipment, something that is unthinkable to do with any other walker I know. Walking is p…

  • Fantastic…

    I bought this as I have mobility issues and the rollator I currently have is totally unsuitable for uneven ground. I find it so much easier to use and have received many remarks about it.…
