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.
A life changer!…
An absolute life changer, it’s brilliant!
The only downside was the strap which we broke the first time out, but that was not the fault of the walker!!!…
Great walker…
I bought this walker for my mother. Since we live in the countryside, it is easy to find yourself walking on uneven ground. In these moments, her wrists always hurt a lot. Now thanks to the Veloped this is no longer the case. Dirt roads and forest pa…

I received my Veloped within a few days of ordering and since then my life has changed for the better. I am now able to walk short distances ANYWHERE. In fields of long grass, in woodlands with prominent roots etc, over cobbles in our town, up and do…
So, so happy…
I am so happy with my veloped, it's made walking so much easier. I enjoy being in the countryside , in the woods and tracks. With the usual walker with four corner wheels I found it difficult with stones and roots and branches but the veloped just gl…
Personal aid and fast delivery. My best INVESTMENT…
Praise to you who invented the Veloped!
I have COPD FEV1 23%, and thanks to the Veloped I can get out in the forest to pick mushrooms and blueberries. Walked several running tracks. Had sore muscles in the hips in the beginning. Because it's so easy…
Walking whereever you want…
There are many little towns in Germany, where the pavements are cobblestone. The Trionic Veloped makes it easy to walk around. The wheels are the best you can have, also for walking in the woods and fields.…
Hello (Tjänare!). I am very satisfied…
Very well constructed! Manoeuvrable, good for off-road use, easy to put in the car. Only favourable weather can't be arranged, but spring is coming.
Many greetings!

Walking is a prime requirement for good health, even when you have a disability. The Trionic Walker 12er is allowing me to traverse walkable surfaces with ease, a situation that my previous, very good-quality walker, could not achieve.…
