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.
Outstanding customer service…
Outstanding customer service. I contacted the company as a patient of mine had broken her walker. Johan was so helpful, worked out what needed to be replaced and sent the replacement free of charge. Thank you

Despite Corona! Ordered on Monday (June 22nd, 2020) in Uppsala, and on Friday (June 26th, 2020), my 14-inch Trionic Walker was at my doorstep. Also, thanks to the excellent logistics from UPS.
In the meantime, I have truly tested the Trionic Walke…

My used Veloped has a non-original wheel. This wheel has a broken valve. I ordered an original tube and replaced it myself. I've never done that before; I'm 68 years old, and I did it alone. I was very proud of myself.…

I’m 69. Sadly, cancer attacked my spine. I lost the ability to walk, had lots of treatment at Clatterbridge Liverpool, and then home physiotherapist visits. I’m now walking slowly.
Had several walkers, none worked for me, but this one, on the cont…
