Rating:

I’m 37 with primary progressive multiple sclerosis. I’ve been using rollator walkers for 3-4 years. They are great for indoors but lack completely when the ground is anything but smooth.

To stay mobile, I need to walk regularly. I searched for a walker with pneumatic tires for a while, but reviews always pointed out poor quality. When a fellow with PPMS recommended Trionic, I was eager to research.

I’m in the US and was concerned it wouldn’t be available for me without outrageous shipping. I was wrong! I got the free catalog and spoke with customer service to make sure I chose the right one for my height. The cost was the hardest to comprehend until I received it.

Walker arrived fully assembled and ready for use. The quality couldn’t be better. I’ve been using it for 3 months. Besides my local walks, I’ve done the MS walk, taken it to a Colorado ranch, and did a Mudgirl obstacle 5k.

My arms and hands don’t fatigue as it rides smoothly over every type of surface (grass, pebbles, stone, sand, etc.). The seat with a backrest is perfect for my frequent necessary breaks to rest. It’s comfortable with just enough give and support. The only area I’ve had to adjust to is the breaks; they are sensitive. I'm sure my husband can figure out how to adjust. Currently, there is an in/between wheels lock with even the slightest pressure from the breaks.

Overall, I recommend this Walker 100% for anyone who needs extra support outside. (I needed the four-point frame for the extra balance and stability as well, so I haven’t tried their other frame).

    I'm very unsteady on my feet, but thanks to the Veloped Trek 14er M, walks in the woods are possible again and they're really fun. My dog is also thrilled that she can now explore the woods, which is her favourite activity. We are both delighted.

  • Absolutely amazing service to the needs of the mobility challenged!…

    To me, the most amazing thing about the Trionic company is that the inventor of Trionic products (the Veloped and the Walker), Stefan Kindberg, is so available to serve the customers for these remarkable devices. He personally sees to it that they ar…

  • 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…

  • Veloped Trek 14er M…

    This walker is a real help. Especially when both front wheels run together, I feel well guided while walking straight, and this is important because I am having balance problems and without it, I would easily stumble. Near where I live there are bump…
