What was your concern with this review?
I'm a 62-year-old woman from the Netherlands and last year I suffered a CVA, which caused my right side to be permanently unusable. So since then, I have been stuck in a wheelchair.
During the last year, I went through therapy to try and recover some use/movement of my right arm and leg. During the therapy, I met a fellow patient who had a lot of benefits from a Trionic Veloped to help him walk again.
As it turns out, the Trionic Veloped is the only walker you can use with one hand.
Its all-terrain wheels make it possible to walk everywhere – on uneven pavement, curbs, and cobbles and get by with limited ability in one of the legs.
I asked for information directly from Stephan at Trionic, and he answered all my questions very kindly and directly over both mail and telephone. We were able to put together a Veloped Tour for me to try.
It arrived duly, perfectly packed, and turned out to be easy for me to assemble.
Then I went to work!
Over the past two months having worked with the Veloped, which I had named 'Thomas' (the tank engine), I can honestly say it has changed my world. From being someone in a wheelchair to someone who stands and engages with other people on their eye level again.
The Veloped has me walking upright again!
For shopping, a doctor's appointment, or just to go for a walk with friends for fun! In shopping centres, a park or sightseeing. I can take it into restaurants and theatres easily.
It will take from work from you, as you will have to practice on the Veloped daily, but you will find improvements in your capabilities daily.
For anyone living in the Netherlands, who wants to know and has one-sided paraplegia, I would be happy to share experiences. I am sure Stefan at Trionic can put us in contact.
Really pleased I bought this…
Having been using a wheeled walker for six months or so, I was unhappy that its small wheels were only useable on smooth surfaces.
I bought the Walker 14er as it was meant to be good at handling rougher terrain and steps. I can confirm that it does …
There is nothing as good existing!…
I received my Veloped on time in a very sturdy packaging and tried it out with my wife in Trier the following weekend.
It is a wonderful device, the developers have come up with some great solutions that you won't find on any other walker (this is…
Trionic Walker 12er…
My 87 year old mother is thrilled with her new walker. Instead of rattling along uneven footpaths and struggling up and down kerbs she now glides effortlessly over all the bumps and up high kerbs. Nothing like this wonderful walker is available in Ir…
Mappleton…
The Veloped arrived just in time for our holiday in Mappleton East Yorkshire, allowing me to join Dorothy and Evie on the beach.
Very pleased with the quality and lightness of the

Thank you f…
Independent walking again…
I have had my Veloped Tour for just over a month and am absolutely delighted with it. Apart from back issues which had limited my walking, this year I have a balance problem. The Trionic has enabled me to get back to enjoying the countryside both on …
Forest Walks Again!…
Since getting my Veloped Trek 14er I've been able to get out about in the Forests again. Have even managed to get half way up the Black Mountains in Wales. Also able to get out and take photos again, something I love to do!…
A very stable rollator…
Thanks to its large pneumatic tyres, the Walker helps me to get easily over the cobblestones on the streets and pavements in my neighbourhood, Niederschönhausen (Berlin-Pankow). And other unevenness are also well cushioned.
Finally a rollator for…
A real all terraine walker…
I have finally found the perfect wheeled walker! The Trionic Veloped Tour 14er M. It is adjustable to be tall enough for me, which make a nice change, I am 6 foot and in the past walkers have felt too low, what totally blew me away was being able to …
