What was your concern with this review?
The Veloped works great as a carrying aid when shopping and you have heavy groceries to bring home. In the store you don't need a shopping trolley; you just grab a basket and place it on the seat for the groceries, pay in the register and it carries it all home. There, the Veloped is a very handy and a great aid. However, we don't think it's fully functional as a walker for an elderly person.
It can feel wobbly since it doesn't have a wheel in each ""corner"", and it gets heavy when pushing uphill. Furthermore, we've tested the off-road driving, with all the wheels on the ground. Then turning gets difficult, and driving gets heavy for one who doesn't have so much own force to steer. The final verdict is that tie Veloped is best suited for someone who still has some balance and strength left.
All in all an excellent carrying aid for me who is in my 50's and has back issues and difficulties with heavy carrying, but not of any interest for my 95-year-old mother, who for the above-mentioned reasons prefers her regular walker.

The only downside was the strap which we broke the first time out, but that was not the fault of the walker!!!…
