Product Review

Finally one that does what it should.

What was your concern with this review?

I now own three rollators. This is my first one from Trionic. The first rollator from another company sounded like clanging metal as I walked along. It also got caught on all the broken pavements where I live and was therefore unstable. The second one from another company didn't make the awful noise but still got caught on all the dodgy pavements where I live. Then the frame would tip forward and slam back down onto my shins. I got fed up with being bruised by the very equipment that was supposed to help me stay on my feet. Clearly where I live is so badly maintained that I needed an all-terrain utter monster of a rollator just to walk along the pavements.

The Veloped Trek did not disappoint. It laughs in the face of upturned paving slabs and stupid drop kerbs that haven't been made properly. Bonus-because it has wheels bigger than my head, I can take it into the woods. (Which appear to be flatter than the pavements!)

The only downside is that I sometimes lurch from side to side and as it's a three-wheeler, it sometimes lurches with me, but it is still stable enough for me to recover. I do need narrower hips to sit comfortably in the seat, but I'm working on that!

  • Great Mobility Aid…

    Has allowed me to walk in a fashion that increases my stride and I am quickly getting in better physical condition. I can walk in a more upright position which doesn't irritate my back like a previous walker did. It is amazing how the climbing tire i…

  • 14” walker.

    It is brilliant. I am the envy of everyone who sees it. I broke two of the other types before getting the Trionic. It gives me the confidence to get out and live the life I wanted to. Thanks.…

  • A new life after 7 years…

    I've only had my Veloped a week, and every day I've taken small excursions around the city and the running track… After TBE and meningitis, my balance is not as it used to be, on top of that I have foot arthrodesis that hasn't healed, so in 3 years I…

  • A life saver!…

    Firstly, the customer service has been faultless, from the advice when ordering my Trionic Veloped, to the immediate response when, after daily use for over 5 years, I needed to order a new seat and basket.

    I have little to no balance, as well as …

  • Veloped Sport…

    I am very satisfied with the Veloped Sport and can now go on longer rounds through the woods and on more challenging terrain without any problems.

    I can only recommend this product!…

  • Essential for urban hiking…

    So much easier to use than the 12 er. The fact that it can climb most curbs in Boston is nothing short of genius! The 14 inch wheels make on and off-roading such a breeze and a very smooth ride throughout! I go about 7 miles a day on my Veloped, and …

  • I suffer from polyneuropathy, so I have really bad balance and vacillate…

    Sticks don't really help, and it's so uncomfortable that at some point you don't even want to go out anymore. Three months ago, it was clear to me that I would need a rollator if I wanted to enjoy being out in nature again.

    Before buying, I inform…
