What was your concern with this review?
I thought for a long time about buying a Veloped and I decided to take the risk! I wanted it for my vacation in Spain: dry, rocky, stony, and mountainous terrain. Total fiasco! It is not suitable for all terrains as advertised. Difficulty: unable to pass on wet sand and gravel. Narrow paths, footbridges and bridges are impassable because the Veloped is too wide. Going up, down the stairs and overcoming the curbs is impossible, even pushing a little doesn't help. In the mountains, with a side slope, the Veloped is difficult to steer: the front wheels drift and it takes a lot of strength and effort to stay on track and to avoid ending up in the ditch. Driving both front wheels is extremely difficult because the steering is too hard and therefore impossible. I am not very strong physically and I am severely disabled, I was hoping for more relief, instead I reach my physical limits.
The handlebar of the Veloped is too short, not even a dog leash or a shopping bag can be hung on it. The basket is also too small!
Engaging the parking brake is very cumbersome, in fact you need both hands. In the mountains: hold the walker, hold the dog's leash, then put on the brakes too!
Transportation: it is too big for a normal car, then you no longer have space for your vacation suitcases. Added to this is the constant assembly and disassembly of the Veloped, which is very difficult to follow without a person to assist you!
Suitable for flat countryside, but you won't need it there: I have a Topro outdoor walker, which isn't bad either.
Overall, I am very disappointed and sadly I would not buy it back as my wishes remained unfulfilled. It's really a shame!!

My wife had major back surgery and we had a fairly nice walker for her to use before and after the surgery. It is nothing compared to the Trionic we purchased. The engineering and craftsmanship are superb and obviously of high quality. It has given h…

I would like to congratulate Trionic for producing such a fine piece of engineering; the Trionic Veloped. The ease of ordering, customer service, packaging, ease of assembly and of course the Trionic Veloped itself have all exceeded my expectations.…
My travel walker…
I bought the Trionic Veloped a few years ago for the outdoor use, specifically to walk my dog over rough terrain. After my dog and I got a bit older (almost 15 and 70 years old), I also bought the Walker 9er to be used indoors and as a 'travel walker…
Brilliant!…
The Veloped Sport is an absolutely brilliant machine which has completely changed my life.
I had another make of four wheeled walker, which was not comfortable to use and if I hit a small obstacle it felt as though I would go over the top of it.

Very stable and easy to manoeuvre. As an 86 year old with ostesporosis I am now out and about with confidence again. I am walking further and faster - amazing my friends and relatives.…

From my first online chat to taking my Veloped Trek outside the Team at Trionic have been excellent. The support and guidance given; the speed of responses; and the delivery of the Trek make me wish all Companies would take lessons!

All round brilliant machine and super efficient people to advise.…
The Trionic 14er has made such a difference to my life. I pulled it out of the box and set off for a walk: down the slab path, and shallow steps, over the rough gravel drive, along the road and back to my door. The Trionic 14er is effortless to move.…
Walker…
Beautiful walker. It runs very smoothly, and it is fantastic for walking. I can recommend this device any time. I would say that every part is worth its price. The only thing that bothers me is that the cork handles are always sticky to the touch. Wh…
Excellent quality…
Walker has proved an excellent investment allowing my wife more freedom and confidence walking outside.
Sturdy construction although a little heavier than most competitors.…
