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.

    I am currently mostly housebound due to recovering from broken ankle and ribs! Also the recent weather has not helped as it has been wet and at times icy!

    I have made about six or seven short walks from the house to local to our local roadway, wea…

    The Walker is very helpful on cobblestones and forest paths, yet still relatively light, and a bit bulky in the car boot.…

  • Walker - from Sweden…

    The Veloped Sport M 14er arrived in Travermünde on the Baltic Sea in early March 2021.
    It enriched my life. By this I mean that I can walk again. I am an 80-year-old woman, and I would have liked to still be active and always around.

    Thanks to th…

    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.

  • Works exactly how it was designed…

    I bought the rain cover not to protect the Veloped from getting wet, rather to keep debris that could collect on it inside the garage.…

    This is the best walker I've owned. It not only has a sleek swedish design,the aluminum frame is light weight, easy to fold up so it can be transported in a car, by bus or train.
    It has the best brakes available--most walkers/rollators use a piec…

  • 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,…
