Rating:

I’m 37 with primary progressive multiple sclerosis. I’ve been using rollator walkers for 3-4 years. They are great for indoors but lack completely when the ground is anything but smooth.

To stay mobile, I need to walk regularly. I searched for a walker with pneumatic tires for a while, but reviews always pointed out poor quality. When a fellow with PPMS recommended Trionic, I was eager to research.

I’m in the US and was concerned it wouldn’t be available for me without outrageous shipping. I was wrong! I got the free catalog and spoke with customer service to make sure I chose the right one for my height. The cost was the hardest to comprehend until I received it.

Walker arrived fully assembled and ready for use. The quality couldn’t be better. I’ve been using it for 3 months. Besides my local walks, I’ve done the MS walk, taken it to a Colorado ranch, and did a Mudgirl obstacle 5k.

My arms and hands don’t fatigue as it rides smoothly over every type of surface (grass, pebbles, stone, sand, etc.). The seat with a backrest is perfect for my frequent necessary breaks to rest. It’s comfortable with just enough give and support. The only area I’ve had to adjust to is the breaks; they are sensitive. I'm sure my husband can figure out how to adjust. Currently, there is an in/between wheels lock with even the slightest pressure from the breaks.

Overall, I recommend this Walker 100% for anyone who needs extra support outside. (I needed the four-point frame for the extra balance and stability as well, so I haven’t tried their other frame).
