A Dream Machine

Rating:

I spent many, many hours at the Trionic facebook group, asking questions, reading all member comments about every aspect of the Veloped. I placed my order for the 12" Tour version based on those glowing and also quite candid reviews. As it transpired, every good thing posted about the Veloped turned out to be true. This rollator was easy to assemble, and i am tragically bad at assembling, it is solid, and stylish, balances beautifully over (for me) tricky terrain. It has made my fuller outdoor life possible. I can't recommend it more highly, even at the breathtaking Australian price of $3000. I would also like to mention the superb after-sales service of the Aussie Trionic rep David Zohs. I emailed the dumbest questions ( where is the lock I ordered? Oh, there it is, factory attached!). David followed up by phone immediately, twice. Such impressive support means a lot when you live in my far-away country. Six stars to Trionic support.

For anyone reading this review, I suggest that you build up your use of the Veli more slowly than I did. I raced around for two hours on the first day, and my underused shoulder and leg muscles complained bitterly the next. I needed a more sensible, realistic approach, more like 15 minutes a day for two weeks to achieve some appropriate fitness to be comfortable.

Complaints: None. If I had any suggestion, it would be a gear change option to slow down the Veli on hills. The brakes work brilliantly, but going downhill, it would be nice to have gear traction.

Product Reviews    

  • Best buy ever…

    I bought my trionic a year ago and use it regularly. I regularly walk in the new forest as I live nearby; it gets me about well and enables me to rest when needed. I bought it online, which was a worry, but they rang me from Stockholm to check I had …

    Great product. Does everything it says it does on the website. Has helped me walk further and faster. As an avid dog walker it is especially good over fields. Would recommend it to anyone who likes to get out and walk in the countryside,…

  • Veloped Sport…

    Truly an outstanding mobility aid. Very well constructed. It will truly allow you to go anywhere. It is happy on tarmac, trail and off-trail. It has enabled me to participate again in the weekly 5 K parkrun.…

  • Getting back into the garden…

    The Veloped Trek has allowed me to get back into the garden, see the plants, even prune an overgrown bush, hang out washing (exciting) and just experience my large backyard again.

    MS limits me in many ways, so the ability to safely walk on grass …

  • Brilliant product…

    It has been such a relief to get out and about in the countryside and be active again. It easily copes with different terrains, and the support it provides enables me to walk upright easily, as opposed to previously when I could only go a very short…

  • Perfect for gravel roads…

    Purchased this for my 88 year old mother. It works perfectly in our rural area. She can now navigate gravel roads with the large tires (the small plastic wheels on her old walker kept getting stuck). It looks good too! She enjoys the positive comm…

  • Finally more freedom of movement and safety…

    After several health challenges, I find walking difficult, especially on uneven surfaces. I hardly ever went outside anymore. I particularly missed walking in the woods. Now my family has ordered me the Veloped Sport. At last I can go for a walk out…

  • 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…
