What was your concern with this review?
After our 86-year-old mother's walking radius decreased due to unsteady gait, and she could only move around outside the home with an escort, she considered – albeit very ambivalently – a mobility aid. A "regular" walker was out of the question for her – she had seen many people who were more likely to "hang" behind a walker and who reached the limits of such a "regular" walker on every bump or curb.
When I, as my daughter, discovered the Veloped, I immediately knew our search was over – we wanted exactly this device! – and ordered it directly from Trionic in Uppsala. Delivery was very prompt and traceable at all times via UPS. The sturdy packaging "exuded quality," and the assembly was also very quick and easy – even supported by a video. The customer service I contacted about a question responded very quickly and easily, and we felt and still feel very well looked after.
From the very first moment, our mother had her "Velo" under control; everything runs very smoothly, and in every detail – visually and haptically – you can feel the quality of the workmanship and the well-thought-out functionality.
Our mother was often asked about the cool design of the Veloped and the construction of the climbing bike with great interest and admiration. The difference to a "normal" walker is immediately obvious, and through training, her walking stability has already improved.
For our mother and for us as a family, the Veloped is simply a "game changer"! The "Velo" brings joy and quality of life!
In another review, we read the term "freedom machine," and that's exactly what it is! Finally, our mother can move around outside completely independently again, run her errands, take a walk with our father through the Rhine promenade, and simply enjoy nature. The Veloped plows through curbs, gravel, and grass with ease. And loading it into the car is also a breeze.
We highly recommend this fantastic Veloped!
Thank you very much, dear Trionic team!

She is much admired particularly by me. She offers so much more stability over sticks, beautifully designed and made, the only thing I have added is a strap to clamp her together when manoeuvring in and out of the car. Looking at the brochure I was w…
Surprising good…
This holder was ordered at the same time I ordered the Veloped and came already attached to the frame. I haven't actually used it for its intended purpose of housing a walking stick but found it has a double purpose and currently holds my dogs retrac…
Upsala…
I can finally walk upright with my new walker and do not have to look at the ground to avoid potholes and the like. My young grandchildren call to each other to be quick to catch up with Oma. At 84 years old I find it a bit heavy to get into my boot,…

I think my Veloped is excellent. I walk my dog for an hour every day, which used to cause me a lot of back pain after 20 minutes. Now I can walk without pain. I've also hiked 10 kilometres several times (with my dog). My Veloped is a real eye-catcher…
Great communication and product review…
Great communication, from my order being placed to the extras I placed at a later time. I felt like I was part of a family that listened to all my concerns because this was a large investment in my mobility they themselves were brilliant. This Velope…
The Veloped in south-west Germany (Black Forest)…
I am very enthusiastic about my Veloped. As I am almost 87 years old and unfortunately can no longer walk in the woods with Nordic walking poles, my daughter was looking for a real alternative to the ‘normal’ walker and she found it very quickly, she…
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 …
The Veloped Trek is the best ever . . .…
I am 68 years old and was a long-distance walker/hiker/backpacker until last Fall 2019, when on a 100 mile/161 kilometer hike, my right hip went out. Walking was painful and difficult. I could barely walk a block. Covid-19 came and treatments became…
Excellent quality…
Walker has proved an excellent investment allowing my wife more freedom and confidence walking outside.
Sturdy construction although a little heavier than most competitors.…
