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.

  • I have had my Trionic Veloped for two years now and I am very satisfied …

    It is easy to manoeuvre, stable holds a lot and looks cool.
    I have tried other walkers with puncture-free tires, but I get muscle pain in my arms from them.
    I do not get that with the air tires of the Veloped.

    The rollator works great in the w…

    After careful consideration, I bought the Walker because I am no longer able to go off-road (I had the Trionic Veloped before).

  • I can walk again…

    Due to the severe deterioration of my spine, I was no longer able to walk more than 100 meters or so. By chance I came across Trionic. The description convinced me and so I bought the product. After the fast delivery I was thrilled about my first "tr…

  • Finally…

    The Veloped allows me to go out again.
    It is stable and has maximum off-road mobility. Very important for me is the possibility to rest now and then.
    I would definitely buy it again.
    The cane holder is very practical.…

  • NOT like an old device…

    I'm extremely happy with the Sport Rollator. I use it for roller skating near our canal, and it works great. I haven't roller skated in 10 years and have the rollator as a safety feature for support.
    And the device doesn't look like a piece of equip…

  • Finally, it is possible to be active in a relaxed way again!…

    At the age of 54, due to a sudden illness, I went in a very short time from being an active athlete to someone who only walks unsteadily, with small, wide-legged steps and in pain. This slow and forced walking also caused me severe Achilles tendiniti…
