Reliable pack donkey

Rating:

The Veloped works great as a carrying aid when shopping and you have heavy groceries to bring home. In the store you don't need a shopping trolley; you just grab a basket and place it on the seat for the groceries, pay in the register and it carries it all home. There, the Veloped is a very handy and a great aid. However, we don't think it's fully functional as a walker for an elderly person.

It can feel wobbly since it doesn't have a wheel in each ""corner"", and it gets heavy when pushing uphill. Furthermore, we've tested the off-road driving, with all the wheels on the ground. Then turning gets difficult, and driving gets heavy for one who doesn't have so much own force to steer. The final verdict is that tie Veloped is best suited for someone who still has some balance and strength left.

All in all an excellent carrying aid for me who is in my 50's and has back issues and difficulties with heavy carrying, but not of any interest for my 95-year-old mother, who for the above-mentioned reasons prefers her regular walker.

  • Veloped…

    Very good aid for walking…

  • Walking out is FUN again !!…

    A beautifully designed and engineered product, and being so robust gives so much more confidence in comparison to lesser competitors. After a few months of lockdown, I can now get the exercise I need - and really enjoying it.

    Thank You for such an…

  • Very good choice for a disabled girl, almost 9 years old...!…

    We bought the Trionic Veloped to our daughter. She is nine years old this summer so Veloped is not really suited for her size yet. But, we still think it works very well in terrain and that was exactly what we were searching, for such a long time!

  • 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…

  • Absolutely Marvelous…

    My Trionic Trek helps me travel to places on-and-off sidewalks, roads, and trails. Even in deep snow. I am especially fond of knowing that I have the absolute freedom of walking alone ANYWHERE within a ten-mile radius of my home (during the long dayl…

  • Great Mobility Aid…

    Has allowed me to walk in a fashion that increases my stride and I am quickly getting in better physical condition. I can walk in a more upright position which doesn't irritate my back like a previous walker did. It is amazing how the climbing tire i…

  • Excellent bit of kit…

    Excellent. From my previous average 20m range, the world has now expanded so much that I was able to take my youngest round the dinosaur museum (him sitting on the seat, facing forward, when he got tired).

    I really cannot thank you enough.…

  • Keeps the weather off…

    Had this for a few months; easy to fit, the clips keep it in position and it gives it good protection as needed.…

  • As someone affected by Parkinson's I am able to walk longer distances ag…

    During walks, the Veloped is my reliable partner. Especially now after switching to a friction brake with one-handed operation (like on a bicycle), I feel very safe even when going downhill. As a person with Parkinson's disease, up until now I could …
