What was your concern with this review?
I thought for a long time about buying a Veloped and I decided to take the risk! I wanted it for my vacation in Spain: dry, rocky, stony, and mountainous terrain. Total fiasco! It is not suitable for all terrains as advertised. Difficulty: unable to pass on wet sand and gravel. Narrow paths, footbridges and bridges are impassable because the Veloped is too wide. Going up, down the stairs and overcoming the curbs is impossible, even pushing a little doesn't help. In the mountains, with a side slope, the Veloped is difficult to steer: the front wheels drift and it takes a lot of strength and effort to stay on track and to avoid ending up in the ditch. Driving both front wheels is extremely difficult because the steering is too hard and therefore impossible. I am not very strong physically and I am severely disabled, I was hoping for more relief, instead I reach my physical limits.
The handlebar of the Veloped is too short, not even a dog leash or a shopping bag can be hung on it. The basket is also too small!
Engaging the parking brake is very cumbersome, in fact you need both hands. In the mountains: hold the walker, hold the dog's leash, then put on the brakes too!
Transportation: it is too big for a normal car, then you no longer have space for your vacation suitcases. Added to this is the constant assembly and disassembly of the Veloped, which is very difficult to follow without a person to assist you!
Suitable for flat countryside, but you won't need it there: I have a Topro outdoor walker, which isn't bad either.
Overall, I am very disappointed and sadly I would not buy it back as my wishes remained unfulfilled. It's really a shame!!

The shipping and the delivery of our Veloped Trek M 14er was completed in 3 days!
So, it was very fast!
Our Veloped was carefully packed and, when we unpacked it, was not damaged! We did not have any problems with the assembly either! See video a…

After extensively testing the Veloped Trek 14er M, I would like to describe my experience here. What really surprised me was the smoothness of the Veloped. Roots and branches are not an obstacle and can be easily driven over. The assembly and disasse…
OVER THE MOON…
I was cautious to buy due to the price. I tried others in the shop (UK) and was appalled by the wobbly feelings they induce in me.
I wanted something stable, easy to take on the UK (stagecoach) buses and would accommodate my arthritic Pomeranian.…

My wife had major back surgery and we had a fairly nice walker for her to use before and after the surgery. It is nothing compared to the Trionic we purchased. The engineering and craftsmanship are superb and obviously of high quality. It has given h…

Perfect - this has given me my life back and most of my independence. Cleo the cocker loves it as well cos we can go off-road walking in some pretty rough terrain with the larger wheels and pneumatic tyres. No more rattling and bouncing. Kerb and …

Probably a little too early for a full review yet as I have only had my 14” medium nearly two weeks but already it has accompanied me on a two day mountain First Aid Course at Plas-y-Brenin in North Wales where it behaved impeccably clambering over b…

This walker is Suburb! I have had the Veloped for almost two months now, and LOVE IT so much! It climbs Curbs and almost anything. I take it on my walks regularly. Down Hills, up Hills, over tree stumps, Grass, Gravel, Curbs and it has no problems! G…

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…
