It has made my world bigger!

What was your concern with this review?

I'm a 62-year-old woman from the Netherlands and last year I suffered a CVA, which caused my right side to be permanently unusable. So since then, I have been stuck in a wheelchair.

During the last year, I went through therapy to try and recover some use/movement of my right arm and leg. During the therapy, I met a fellow patient who had a lot of benefits from a Trionic Veloped to help him walk again.
As it turns out, the Trionic Veloped is the only walker you can use with one hand.

Its all-terrain wheels make it possible to walk everywhere – on uneven pavement, curbs, and cobbles and get by with limited ability in one of the legs.

I asked for information directly from Stephan at Trionic, and he answered all my questions very kindly and directly over both mail and telephone. We were able to put together a Veloped Tour for me to try.

It arrived duly, perfectly packed, and turned out to be easy for me to assemble.
Then I went to work!

Over the past two months having worked with the Veloped, which I had named 'Thomas' (the tank engine), I can honestly say it has changed my world. From being someone in a wheelchair to someone who stands and engages with other people on their eye level again.
The Veloped has me walking upright again!

For shopping, a doctor's appointment, or just to go for a walk with friends for fun! In shopping centres, a park or sightseeing. I can take it into restaurants and theatres easily.

It will take from work from you, as you will have to practice on the Veloped daily, but you will find improvements in your capabilities daily.

For anyone living in the Netherlands, who wants to know and has one-sided paraplegia, I would be happy to share experiences. I am sure Stefan at Trionic can put us in contact.

  • 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.
    Had been ogl…

    An absolute life changer, it’s brilliant!
    The only downside was the strap which we broke the first time out, but that was not the fault of the walker!!!…

  • Trionic Walker 12er…

    My 87 year old mother is thrilled with her new walker. Instead of rattling along uneven footpaths and struggling up and down kerbs she now glides effortlessly over all the bumps and up high kerbs. Nothing like this wonderful walker is available in Ir…

  • All my expectations were met…

    The Veloped was delivered in a short time. The handling of the Veloped is self-explanatory and very simple. I am thrilled at how quickly I was able to get moving outside again! In the end, the walks were torturous and now they are fun again. The Velo…
