A dream to use

What was your concern with this review?

I have decided to give myself some time before leaving a review, as I wanted to really road test it so I could be thorough.

I have had this item for about a month now & have used it in different environments. First though, getting this into my car;

I have the 12" wheels, which are much bigger than my previous rollators wheels, the fold is also different. I have a VW Golf SV & tbh, I was worried I'd never get it in the boot. I have managed but I've not used the parcel shelf since using the walker as I can't get both in at the same time. So be aware of the size of you have a small boot.

This is incredible on grass & uneven surfaces. I hardly notice I'm pushing it on grass, it just glides along effortlessly. I go to a park with my children & our dog, so walking on grass is the norm there. There are lots of dips & bumps but this walker just glides over them with ease. I barely noticed there were dips & bumps it's so smooth. On cobbles it's not quite so smooth but it is far far smoother than a traditional rollator, you're not shaken to your core, which is good. You don't get jerked around or bone rattled, which is also good. This is handy as I live in an area that has cobbled streets to navigate.

I wanted to test the walker on sand & as my sister was visiting, we decided to take her to the beach. This is far superior to a traditional rollator on sand. I was able to get right down to the shore line. The only thing it couldn't tackle was very loose soft sand, he wheels just dug in & I couldn't move it. My husband wondered if you did broader wheels? It would be good if you did, even if it's just the front wheels.

All in all, I really do enjoy this rollator. It's comfortable to sit on, it's smooth & effortless to move. It's very sturdy, which is something I really appreciate, because I have a risk of falling, I can steady myself with this, with just one hand on the walker, which I fine incredibly reassuring. I am very pleased to have purchased this. My only issues are, the break lock is difficult to use if you have weak wrists. I sometimes struggle as I have hypermobility Ehlers Danlos Syndrome & some days my fingers & hands are too weak & hypermobile to get the break on. The other is the colour...why does the small only come in red? I would love it in green. Also, why isn't there a strap to keep it in its folded position? That would be handy.

Is it worth the money? Yes. Absolutely. For quality, stability, manoeuvrability, style, weight...all of that is worth the money.

  • Mr Lawrence Urquhart…

    I wrote a favourable review about your service and administration. I don’t know if you received it.

    Medical issues have prevented my active use of the product since then but I like the look and feel of the walker so look forward to the Spring !…

  • John…

    I bought this walker for my wife. Now thanks to the design with inflated tyres all the jarring in her hands and arms has now gone and it is now nice to go for a walk.…

  • Trionic Veloped…

    This all-terrain walker allows me to walk, which I hadn't thought possible for a long time. At the turn of the year, I tested it extensively on the North Sea island of Baltrum, and I'm thrilled. Whether it's a hike on the beach or a photographic bird…

  • Goethe garden house and my Trionic…

    On August 28, 2021, I was in Weimar with my daughter, exactly on her and Goethe’s birthday! A beautiful path led to Goethe’s garden house. Because there were no seats nearby, that day I had to stop every few meters and gasp for air. How much I wished…

  • Great, exactly as I expected…

    I am simply thrilled. Thanks to Veloped I have regained a piece of normal life. Finally, I can walk on the beach again. The assembly is very simple and disconnecting the wheels for transport by car is not very difficult: just a click and it is done! …

  • Veloped…

    I am very satisfied, my expectations were fully met. I no longer want to live without my Veloped!
    On vacation, a nature camp, it was a great help.
    1. the all-terrain gear makes walking in rough terrain much easier.
    2. walking at night without pay…

  • A rollator that gives security…

    I use my wife's Walker 14er in addition to the rollator I have owned for years. The stable construction and large wheels of the Walker 14er give a completely different walking feeling, a new sense of safety. The bumpy cobblestones and uneven terrain …

  • Walker 12er…

    Excellent design and build. Very easy to adapt handgrips angles and height for maximum comfort and tailored "fit".
    Handles superbly, especially over uneven surfaces. The seat is comfortable to sit on and slides horizontally along the frame so that…

  • I can enjoy the outdoors again…

    I was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2012 and my balance and mobility are now at the stage where I feel much safer walking with a rollator. I have a fleet of them! One for airport use (really), one for city sidewalk use and now 2 for outdoor use. I…
