My new sense of balance
My father-in-law is 86 years young and has visual and balance problems. When he walks (like a penguin), with his legs apart and with splayed arms, he has to concentrate very hard on his balance, which makes him so fatigued that he starts to falter after 2-500 m. So after 1,000 m, that's it; he has to sit down so as not to fall backwards. We could no longer go for walks with him because of it being so laborious. Over the winter, we were in Spain on the Mediterranean and bought the Veloped. He himself says that's the best thing one can want, to be back in public without any problems. Now he can walk 7 to 10 km without any weakness and he enjoyed it everyday on the strand promenades. The most important thing after eating and sleeping is his Veloped. Thanks for the super idea of the double wheel, kerb edges are simply no longer there.

After our 86-year-old mother's walking radius decreased due to unsteady gait, and she could only move around outside the home with an escort, she considered – albeit very ambivalently – a mobility aid. A "regular" walker was out of the question for h…

I bought this for my 82 yr old mother. She loved to walk in the countryside and on wooded paths, but concern about balance had really slowed her down and she complained she could only walk 1 mile and needed to take breaks. I gave her the Veloped as…

I do enjoy my Trionic Veloped. However, I think the seat depth could be improved by making the rear verticals slightly further back (which would probably involve major costs!). Also, I do not find the front wheel combination very helpful and have con…
Stable freedom of movement with optimal braking…
Without a walker or two-sided crutches, I am permanently bound to a location. I have tried several rollators over the years, such as the Nitro, the Topro Troja and the Alevo Carbon.
The biggest weakness of all rollators are the brakes.

Delighted with my Veloped Trionic. It has totally exceeded my expectations.
It takes obstacles in its stride. Very comfortable on the arms, easy to manoeuvre. Simple to remove and replace wheels for putting in the car.
Very happy.…
