Sherpani  Meridian 22" Carry-On Hardside Wheeled Luggage

I usually use Delsey as my go-to carry on. Impressed by the design, I bought a Sherpani carry on. While it is incredibly lightweight, the handles on the top and side became “gummy”, to the point sticky handle natural would come off on my hands. The bag was always cares for and stored in my walk-in closet, no temperature extremes. The bag was a few years old but I bought it with Sherpani’s “Fearless Lifetime Warranty”. Sherpani told me the warranty is actually “the lifetime of the bag”, and offered me 25% off a new bag. Avoid this brand and their fake warranty. They didn’t even offer an explanation as to why handles would “melt”

I recently purchased this luggage to replace a carry-on that was simply not holding up. To be honest, I was apprehensive about the size…but let me tell you…this is an A+ item. I have traveled with it on two trips and had no issues with overhead space on multiple flights (even on a smaller plane). It is the lightest carry-on I have tested thus far, and the wheels and zippers seem like they will hold up extremely well. Overall, I am beyond impressed with the functionality of this product and will be referring it to friends and family.

I got this in the caribe (aqua) color and it's very pretty and draws compliments. It's fairly lightweight but has been sturdy -- except for the handle on top, which suddenly cracked in half when picked up in the normal manner. The suitcase is about 7 years old, but I don't travel much, so this was really unexpected. The company responded quickly to emails about warranty service but I have to pay $10 for them to ship me a new handle, when very similar ones cost the same or less with free shipping on Amazon. I like the way the looks of this suitcase stand out, but next time I'll buy from a luggage brand that is more quality- than design-oriented.

The zipper broke the first time I used the luggage while I was on a trip. I also agree with another user. This suitcase is SO difficult to move around an airport. The wheels do not respond as expected and the handle is a bit short.

In comparing this to other carry-ons I looked at, this one was one of the few that had a width extender. I liked the fact it is hard sided to protect more breakable items in case I would ever have to check it as luggage while flying. I've only used it twice but it seems to be sturdy and well made. It is nice and light weight and rolls easily.

This suitcase has been on 5 trips abroad and it has held up on the outside, wheels well and is cute (I got the colored zippers - only one like it on the carousel when checked). I love the inside as it holds a lot more than I thought and everything stays in place. It expands if you need it too. The expanding arm works perfectly but the handle to carry is hard to get your finger under. That's my only negative. Overall excellent.

I purchased this in december 2023, used it for the first time for a trip in february 2024. It was so challenging to wheel it through both Logan and Orlando airport. Once packed, what seemed like a well functioning piece of luggage did not function well at all. I read reviews on Amazon and REI before I made this purchase, and very rarely did someone else mention this as a problem. I can't return it, as I purchased it directly from the company. I did contact the company, they asked for a video of me wheeling it??? I haven't yet asked a friend to help me out with this, I suppose it means packing the suitcase up, and parking the Camden bag which is designed to be used with Meridian, on top, also fully packed, and then going to a location with carpeting and uneven tile floors to try to mimic the airport conditions. I'm not sure that is worth it. The wheels are poorly designed. Period.

This worked very well for us. Great size, weight and construction . Look forward to using them for years to come.

Light, hard sided carryon. Smooth casters. Purchased on sale so the price was right.

I’m not sure what others talk about with the wheels. I took this on several trips flying this past year, it performed flawlessly. It fits a good amount of stuff, is lightweight, will expand, was the perfect carry-on to use while flying.
