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.
It drives great on all surfaces & better than other walkers…
The stability on uneven terrain is especially noteworthy. The Veloped is a bit bulky- but it can transport a lot of stuff from our dog over groceries to camping equipment, something that is unthinkable to do with any other walker I know. Walking is p…
Makes mum active…
We bought the Tour 12er for our 92-year-old mother so that she can continue to walk her beloved forest paths after a triple pelvic fracture, which has permanently limited her mobility. After initial protests (I don't need a rollator, I'm not that fra…
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 …
Better Than All The Rest…
Almost 2 months ago my amazing rollator, the Trionic Veloped 14er M green arrived. The rain didn't stop me from taking my new best friend for a walk. From that moment I've not looked back. I do look forward to going out with it every day. I walk fur…
Walker - from Sweden…
The Veloped Sport M 14er arrived in Travermünde on the Baltic Sea in early March 2021.
It enriched my life. By this I mean that I can walk again. I am an 80-year-old woman, and I would have liked to still be active and always around.
Thanks to th…
A real all terrain walker…
I have finally found the perfect wheeled walker! The Trionic Veloped Tour 14er M. It is adjustable to be tall enough for me, which make a nice change, I am 6 foot and in the past walkers have felt too low, what totally blew me away was being able to …
Veloped Trek 14er…
I've had the walker for a few weeks now and can say that I'm very happy with it. So far I've been able to get everywhere with it, especially in the woods, where others would certainly have failed. The Veloped Trek leaves nothing to be desired.

Worth Every Penny - Best "Walker" on the Market…
I had been looking for a walker with larger, rubber tube tires forever it seemed. The small, hard, plastic tires on all walkers are only good for very short distances on even surfaces. Then I saw this product and I chatted and spoke to the company …
