Suggestion

What was your concern with this review?

Good morning,
I am very happy to write to you. As you know my wife sees only 5% per eye and, after the initial difficulties, now she gets along very well with her walker. Sure, someone always must be there, but that has nothing to do with this great product. As a suggestion, the handles could be a little longer, so one can be able to stand up alone, which is now not possible for a person with neuropathy on feet and hands. Also, it would be very helpful if there was a way to lift and move the Veloped forward with your foot. But I know that for some reason it is not possible to add a pedal. I could then imagine a ball that could be fixed under the frame. My wife would not see it anyway, but, like many other things, when she doesn't see the solution, she develops her own technique. The Veloped also has the right weight so that I can lift it and load it into my Alhambra without having to take off the front wheels, if one knows how to do it. When you learn the trick, it is also very easy to fold the Veloped and the seat is really well designed. Despite poor eyesight, even my wife can do it alone. Really fantastic! I see it as when one builds a house: the second house would get done differently, but this does not mean that it has been done badly, and only thanks to the customers’ suggestions one can implement something new. Yes, the price is a bit high, but it's worth it; it is simply not a cheap product that hits supermarket shelves. Thanks for your great product. I hope that you will always accept the suggestions from sick people or from health workers because walking is a topic that needs to be addressed more. Unfortunately, we, healthy people, do not always see their concerns. I am already advertising for you and I will be happy to give away some flyers too, if you send me some, because I did not find them on the internet quickly, as you are not that well known yet.

Thanks, regards, Ralf Herold

  • From the neighbor to your own Veloped…

    Saw it at my neighbor's house and bought it because I was impressed by every aspect. It looks great, handles well (the brakes and function)—which is difficult to grasp for someone with dementia (in our case), but otherwise the brakes work perfectly. …

  • Most life-changing piece of equipment I've ever bought!…

    I suffered a severe spinal injury in February, 2009, just slipping on an icy path.
    Overnight, I went from an independent, hard-working, active 43year-old to having to be hospitalised for a month, bed-ridden for 3 months, and convalescing with kind f…

  • Overall, I am satisfied.…

    I am 86-year-old and weigh 58 kg.
    The device looks good (to be envious), is well thought out and easy to assemble. What struck me:
    The heavy strain on the arm muscles
    - on uneven forest paths,
    - on inclines (effort needed to push uphill and to h…

    Due to ongoing health problems, Maurice (as my 12er has been dubbed) and I have not had as many outings as I would have wished but on each occasion, he has not let me down on the rough, uneven ground, whereas my conventional Rollator would balk at th…

  • The new life……

    As a multi-operated (all parts of the musculoskeletal system) former long-distance runner, I have been given the opportunity to recreate parts of my former life thanks to the Veloped. It gives me support and security in one workout session/day after …

  • Outstanding…

    Although the Veloped Tour is an expensive investment, it is well worth it.
    It has given me mobility that no other rollator provides. I can now navigate uneven terrain, cobble stone streets, curbs and even pot holes with ease. I intend to take it wit…

  • Thrilled with my new friend Vince The Veloped!…

    Living with MS (comparatively mild but slowly progressing) I have poor balance, and varying degrees of leg weakness and fatigue – the Veloped is the answer to all these issues, and I couldn’t be more delighted.

  • Veloped Tour ;-)…

    I would just like to say what a life changer this Veloped has been for me. Having been diagnosed with spinal cerebellum Ataxia type 6 a few years ago, I now have very little balance.

    I can now walk independently using my Veloped with confidence a…

  • This has changed my life…

    This Veloped has brought back a dimension to my life that I thought had gone. Ive had mobility issues for the last 10 years, and experienced a decline in spite of working hard to maintain/improve it. Sometimes, you just need the right product. One t…
