I am a disabled lady with rheumatoid arthritis, with one weakened leg in particular. I used to love hiking and wildlife photograpy, but I thought those days were over until I bought a Veloped Trionic Trek walker. It has truly changed my life and I wouldn't be without it now. I used to struggle to walk along even smooth surfaces, but with the Veloped I walk along all kinds of rough trails, and I've used it extensively in the Scottish Highlands, where it has performed amazingly well. The large chunky wheels can cope with obstacles, the whole thing feels solid and stable and I feel really safe when leaning on it to catch my breath. Other walkers and rollators I have tried just felt too flimsy, but the Veloped is rock steady, yet glides along so easily. The built-in seat and carrier are also extremely useful. My little dogs love jumping into the carrier for a ride too! The company that makes them is Swedish, and when I have phoned the company for information, a lovely man named Stefan has been extremely helpful. All in all, an amazing product!
My life-long love of walking was brought to an end with knee problems; at best I could cover a mile using two crutches - no fun at all. Then I found the Veloped. Now I can join my friends and do a 3-mile walk while they do 5-6 and we meet for a pub lunch afterwards. My spirits have soared now I can return to walk in the countryside, and when my knees have had enough I can pull out the seat, enjoy the view and listen to the birdsong. It goes in the back of the car (without removing the wheels), I can take it on the bus and train, and have toured art galleries with it. It is already evident that my strength and endurance have improved.As others have said, Stefan's advice was invaluable, as was the free-return policy which gave me the confidence to purchase unseen.
This is a really super rollator and I look forward to my daily outdoor sessions with it. It is so comfortable to use and the pneumatic tyres make obstacles very easy to overcome. My model has the option of two or one wheels at the front and this makes it easy to travel on rough and smooth surfaces. The front section is great for storing messages and the seating arrangement is just what one wants to watch the local rugby team in action. I suffer from chronic spondylosis and a broken hip and my Trionic Veloped makes life so very much easier. I thoroughly recommend it to both disabled and fit members of the community.

I found the help and advice given very honest and useful. Buying without seeing is always a concern but with the returns policy it made the decision much easier.The delivery was as promised and the Trionic Veloped arrived safely in a very secure box.Setting up the item was very easy as the instructions were very straightforward and easy to follow.I have now used it on many occasions and i am very pleased with it. I am able to walk faster, safer and over a longer time frame than without it.I have used it on bumpy meadows, shingle both large stones and smaller size, gravel, tarmac and cobbles. The larger wheels and the design works very well indeed across all these different types of terrain.i am able to load it into the boot on my car with all the wheels detached and it collapses very easily.I choose the single brake option which was fitted and set-uo for my right hand. This works quite well but i need two hands to apply the brake catch to its second setting to keep the wheels locked.All in all the Trionic has given me a new extended period to explore outside in a much more relaxed way than it was beforehand.Although it is expensive i feel it is well worth the investment.
Freedom!I ordered my Trionic Veloped Trek on a Monday and it arrived in UK on Friday as promised. It is absolutely marvellous, sturdy and well engineered, easy to operate and copes with uneven terrain effortlessly. It has given me the freedom and confidence to explore the beautiful forests and beaches in the county where I live, and in 'urban' mode' I can explore the towns and cities too!Thank you so muchPam
Growing up on a farm and loving nature it came somewhat as a blow 27 years ago that walking was no longer an option. Hip problems landed me, despite 2 operations, in a wheelchair.Last year i got an artificial hip and since then i can walk small distances with a a rollator.Enter the Veloped Trek !Ordered on a sunday it arrived the next wednesday. Easy assembly and of to the woods. IMAGINE HOW THAT FEELS, AFTER SO MANY YEARS.No more paved roads -> dirt roads... and not getting stuck. Seeing a roe, smelling the earth, getting muscle strain and liking it.It may sound a bit pathetic but believe me; the Trek brought back something i missed for years: freedom to go where i want to go.Stefan Kindberg and team: thanks a lot and keep up the good work.Greet DokterEdethe Netherlands.
I'm a twenty six year old woman, born with mild to severe spastic tetraparesis (a "lighter" form of cerebral palsy). It affects both my hands and legs: despite years of physiotherapy, I was only able to walk arm in arm with a carer. I found out about Trionic through my long search for a rollator that would be able to support and help me lead an active lifestyle. From my very first inquiry to the shipment of my Veloped and beyond, Stefan was extremely helpful and explanatory about every question I had, answering promptly and clearly. My Veloped (a 14er Tour) fit my needs like a glove! It has managed to support my independent walking, without supervision, with all kinds of terrain. It has not budged through hard rocks, sand, dirt roads, cobblestone and thick vegetation. It's stylish, sturdy and easy to use: it has managed to overcome great obstacles with just the touch of my hand and responds immediately to every alteration of my gait. I cannot express how much it has changed my life for the better! Definitely worth every penny and more: I know I have gained a lifetime of freedom.Kind regards from Greece,Eleni
I bought two of the splendid Trionic walking aids for my partially disabled wife. The first was the 16er Trek model. The unique front wheel arrangement make it suitable for use on rough ground and easier to mount pavements. My wife even used it to go up a mountain track which was not possible with a more usual small wheel rollator with solid tyres. I also bought her a 12er rollator for shopping and use in the town. This fits more easily in our car (Aventis Verso) without having to remove the wheels.With these walking aids, my wife can walk further, faster and over rougher ground than she could previously. Both Trionics were delivered 2-working days after placing the orders. They are well designed, sturdy, stable and comfortable to use. They may seem rather expensive but one has to pay for the best quality and service offered by Trionic. My wife is delighted with both of them.Mike Pearce from Grimsby, England.
I recently purchased a rollator walker 14 for my mother who has motor neurons disease and was coming to the stage of the disease where mobility becomes severely compromised. It is a most outstanding piece of equipment and has given my mother fantastic mobility. It is extraordinarily mobile and maneuverable and enables her to get out of the house to go for short walks safely. Where it really comes into its own though is indoors owing to its ability to maneuver so easily and providing an incredibly stable platform. It has truly given an old lady with an horrible disease a new lease of life and she just loves it. Well done to the designers and company who manufacture it, top marks.
