Product Review

Good product, but be careful downhill

Rating:

What was your concern with this review?

This is an excellent rollator for mobility outdoors. I am an MND sufferer who struggles for balance while walking. Before using this product, I normally relied on hiking sticks when venturing outdoors. This rollator has given me more confidence when on long walks in varying terrain, and has also given my wife more relief in not having to always be by my side to ensure I don't fall!

The product is very easy to assemble and to disassemble, and therefore to transport. I was also able to carry it overseas on a flight to Australia recently. I purchased a purpose-made bag in which the disassembled rollator could be easily kept in the hold.

If I have one criticism, it is that when going downhill, the rollator's weight and momentum means that it sometimes gets away from me, so that I have to brake and my feet had to catch up with it on several occasions. Maybe a built-in slowing anti-gravity mechanism could be attached in future designs?

But overall, this is a super product to help liberate mobility compromised people and enable them to live a healthy life outdoors!

  • Being clearly visible is about safety…

    The rear lights can be easily seen from a distance and significantly increase safety in the darkness. Time will tell whether the stretchy fastening tape will hold up well in the long term.…

  • I have had my Trionic Veloped for two years now and I am very satisfied …

    It is easy to manoeuvre, stable, holds a lot and it looks cool. I have tried other walkers with puncture-free tires, but I get muscle pain in my arms from them. I do not get that with the air tires of the Veloped. The rollator works great in the wood…

  • A liberation!…

    My Trionic has liberated me. A walk with the dog has become a pleasure again. I easily and smoothly can walk on woodland trails, even soft beach dune sands, and a trek in the hills along pebbly paths is possible too! But it's convenient and cool to w…

  • 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.…

    Great supplement for my Walking aids

    I used the comfort stool this morning for a few hours while fishing, it was very comfortable and steady while sitting on it; I could cast from a sitting position without feeling I was going to fall off. Gettin…

  • Walker 12-inch wheels.…

    I have had my Walker for about 6 weeks. I am delighted with it. It is very well made, sturdy, folds well for putting into the car for transport and is not too heavy. The service I have received is excellent. I had major spinal surgery for cancer and …

  • The Veloped Has Changed My Life - Yippee!…

    My bicycle accident, four years ago, left me with such poor balance, that I struggled to walk with a stick. In fact, I found myself very reluctant to walk even short distances. There is the standard red rollator, something many elderly people have, b…

  • Excellent Product, well thought out…

    This is an excellent product, once you have got over the price! There is not another like it on the market. The pneumatic tyres make a huge difference, especially on rough or non-existent roads. It's actually worth it. The brakes are not the best, th…
