Too big for urban environment

Rating:

What was your concern with this review?

I bought a Veloped with 14-inch wheels. As an off-road walker, it is the best.

But it is simply too large for an urban environment. I have major problems going through store doors with it. Using it on an urban sidewalk also is not easy due to its extra width.

While the unit folds up for storage and transport, it tends to open up. I had to create my own velcro latch to keep it closed.

Part of me would return it due to the size, except it is the only walker I found that works well on sand.
