Big disappointment!!!

Rating:

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 Veloped has become my faithful companion. I can only recommend it. My range of motion has increased fourfold, giving me a better life quality. Thanks to the team for such a design. I would like to see it distributed more in Germany as well.

  • Finally, no more pain in my hands…

    Since I have this rollator, I could cry with happiness. I walked around with the wrong one for three years and ruined my right hand.

    The walker arrived and UPS even helped me with the box. I opened the box without any problems, overturned it and s…

  • No problems at the beach…

    Hi, I'm Tom (37) from Veenendaal (the Netherlands).

    I have always been fit and healthy until 2 years ago. An accident at work put an end to that. I am now in an inexplicable pain that can’t be explained. After using some granny rollators, I found …

  • PERFECT…

    Perfect, because you can walk upright and avoid walking with a bent back. The back improves the more you walk.
    A tip: When folding the Veloped, there should be a latch that keeps the frame locked in a folded state.

  • It shines on all Terrains…

    Despite Corona! Ordered on Monday (June 22nd, 2020) in Uppsala, and on Friday (June 26th, 2020), my 14-inch Trionic Walker was at my doorstep. Also, thanks to the excellent logistics from UPS.

    In the meantime, I have truly tested the Trionic Walke…

  • My Veloped makes me safe…

    Great to be able to take brisk walks with my Veloped in the green area close to my neighborhood. To get there, I pass street crossings, where the Veloped smoothly climbs up and down the curbs. Since the Veloped is easy to "fold" and load in the trunk…

  • When we retired from farming 3 years……

    When we retired from farming 3 years ago, it never occurred to me to sit on my butt and watch the world go by. I had spent years doing barn chores without a thought to my mobility. There were wheelbarrows, carts, brooms, shovels, forks, scrapers and …

  • A big piece of extra freedom…

    I am very satisfied with the Veloped Trek!
    My shoulders and arms, which used to get all the shocks from every unevenness of the ground with a quite good but common rollator, could now relax. It is also very smooth, and walking is no longer so strenu…
