What was your concern with this review?
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 limited or non-existent.
Longing to walk again in town and on mountain trails, I discovered the all-terrain Veloped Trek online. It arrived three weeks ago. It was simple to attach the wheels. Amazingly the Veloped Trek takes just enough pressure off my hip to begin walking again. I have been walking in town on a variety of surfaces: smooth sidewalks and uneven sidewalks; streets with cracks, bumps, and holes; gravel and small rocks; grass and dirt; and up and down curbs, and I have slowly increased distances. Today I walked 2 miles/3.2 kilometers. This is the perfect remedy for my hip. I especially like how it allows me to walk standing straight, not bent over, and the basket and gear are perfect for future picnics and further hikes.
Initially, two repairable problems presented themselves. I had two flat tires within the first week due to goathead stickers which are common here in the desert. This was easily fixed with the popular green goop used in bicycle tires. All four tires received the treatment and I have had no further flats. Also, I found the seat uncomfortable. This problem was resolved by partially inflating a long, rectangular, inflatable camping pillow/cushion, folding it into thirds and placing it in between the two seat layers. It is a soft seat now. It was an easy solution.
Overall, I am pleased with the Veloped Trek. It is sturdy and sporty-looking, and it has brought the joy of walking back into my life. Thanks to Oshin and Stefan who kindly assisted me as I made my purchase. The Veloped Trek is the best ever. Joyce, Alamogordo, New Mexico
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…
Great product…
I have the Walker 14er and love it for walking the dog as it goes anywhere. Bought this one to use when I go out shopping, etc. and am so pleased with it as I feel much safer when I use it. I do find it a little bit heavy but thoroughly recommend it…

I have used the walker several times.

Lightness, synchronisation of the front wheels and large tyres make it easier to walk even on uneven surfaces, it has numero…

It’s so easy to use and great to walk with, it also keeps me upright. Apart from my husband it’s my best friend.
Service was excellent and also the follow-up.…
Fits perfectly…
The pump fits the tyres perfectly and inflates them with minimal effort.
Folded up, the pump can be stored in any backpack or can be attached directly to the Veloped with the supplied material. In this case, it is not the pump that is attached, b…
A rollator for life…
A rollator for life. I found it for my daughter. It's called Walker 14 and it's impressive, big tires, not wheels!
The one that circumnavigates all cliffs, came to my mind immediately.
But it also has room for all that solidity and precise tinkerin…
Buying a ROLLATOR…
Did a brochure request which arrived promptly from Sweden - why can’t local companies manage this!
Realised I would be a questionable size in terms of fitting their machines. So I rang and got through almost immediately and had an extremely inform…
Super article…
We are absolutely satisfied.
The rollator is really exclusive.
You don't feel as if you are using a "walking aid". We are often asked how great it looks, not as "rickety" as all the others you get.
And it is nice and light.
We are happy to recom…

The Walker 12er (size M/L) is the best I've seen. I'm very satisfied. High-quality workmanship and easy to handle in practice. I can only recommend this rollator.…
