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!

  • A great product.…

    I am 93 and was always a lively walker until a problem with my legs occurred a few years ago. That resulted in my walking with a stick - not very satisfactory. Rollators are not so common in the UK, and when my Swedish relative suggested one, I r…

  • 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…

  • Veloped Trek 14er…

    I've had the walker for a few weeks now and can say that I'm very happy with it. So far I've been able to get everywhere with it, especially in the woods, where others would certainly have failed. The Veloped Trek leaves nothing to be desired.

  • Genial…

    I am completely satisfied with my Veloped. From the first day it felt familiar and increased my ability to move.

    I couldn't help but test the Veloped in the most difficult terrain conditions. A very steep narrow forest path with deeply washed-out…

  • Finally, no more pain in my hands…

    Since I have this rollator, I could cry with happiness. I walked around with the wrong one for three years and ruined my right hand.

    The walker arrived and UPS even helped me with the box. I opened the box without any problems, overturned it and s…

  • Walking every week now!…

    My Veloped Sport has allowed me to enjoy walking again! I'm 59yrs. old and have cerebral palsy. I was having a hard time walking without some sort of mobility aid. Typical walkers limited where I could go walking. My Veloped Sport can go almost anywh…

  • Rollator Walker 12er…

    Good morning, at first I ordered the Walker 14er, but this rollator with the large tires is much too big to be transported in my Opel Mokka. Now I use the Walker 12er and I am very happy with it.…

  • Trionic have thought of everything…

    Trionic have thought of everything. The Veloped Trek has made a world of difference to my being able to get out into the countryside to enjoy the scenery and the wildlife again, as it easily enables me to carry my cameras, binos, and all I need to st…
