really like it
I bought this Sept 4, 2022. I waited to post a review to see how durable it is. I have carried on and I have checked this bag a few times. There are tiny barely noticeable dings from the airline handling but overall, it still looks good. I bought the cabernet color. It hold enough for a week , for me and does everything it's supposed to. I would probably purchase again and do recommend it. I registered this bag with travelpro the day after I got it. When packing for my latest trip in 4-1-23, I noticed the left side TSA lock zipper tag is gone. I have contacted Travelpro to see about the warranty and haven't gotten an answer yet. BUT when i went to their site to see about ordering the part (how much could it really be?), it appears part are now not available for this particular style/model. I am trying to ask if another similar part will suffice. So just be aware, that it may or may not be covered, even if your register the bag. The warranty was a big part of why I bought it. I will update my review when I find out for sure what is truly covered and what is not. Edited to add: The outcome was that Travelpro sent me a whole new suitcase. They didnโt have the color of my bag so I accepted a green one. Accepting a new bag, of course, negates the warranty on both the old one and the replacement. I just bought a lock for he first one . They really do honor the warranty.

Inside compartments
Love the color and the zippered compartments inside. It would have been nice to have straps to secure things as well but I use packing cubes anyway so not a deal breaker. I ordered one that was "like new" and the only thing I found was one wheel was slightly scuffed but for the price not a deal breaker, besides the airlines/airports will do worse. Overall great bag for the money and will fit nicely in the overhead bins, I would definitely recommend this brand.

Broken suitcase telescope handle on Travelpro Maxlite Air Hardside Medium 25โ
I don't write reviews. But when I read @Vionette's one-star review for the Travelpro Maxlite Air Hardside Expandable Medium 25-inch suitcase posted on 4/12/2025, I was compelled to chime in as a public service for people shopping for reliable luggage. Keep looking! I purchased the same Travelpro Maxlite Air 25-inch hard spinner on 9/19/2023 for $186.99. I used it exactly three times for domestic travel. The third time I used this suitcase was for a trip home for Christmas in December 2024. While boarding an Amtrack train to Michigan, the telescope handle stopped working and was stuck in the upright position. A kind man who was over six feet tall couldn't push the handle down. Luckily, I was allowed to board the train with the handle extended. I ended up borrowing a suitcase from my mother for my return flight to Arizona. I should add that at the same time I purchased this suitcase, I also paid $314 + tax for the Travelpro Platinum Elite Hardside Expandable Carry on Spinner in the same Dark Sky Blue color: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B12RPMXF?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 It's great for business trips. I haven't had a problem with this suitcase - yet. The next time I travel and need to check a bag, I will use my 7-year old Skyway Luggage medium size fabric spinner suitcase that I purchased at Kohl's. It's lightweight and in excellent condition with no defects. The defective Travelpro medium spinner suitcase I paid close to $200 for is still at my Mom's house in the Midwest. Read and pay attention to the negative reviews of this suitcase. Many people cite zippers and wheels that broke upon first use, handles being too tight to grip, the lack of Travelpro customer service and loopholes in Travelproโs "Lifetime Limited Warranty" that are deliberately designed to protect the company while screwing the customer. Good luck getting Travelpro to refund your luggage or fixed without great time and expense to you. I will never buy Travelpro luggage again or any luggage on Amazon.

Thought I would try hard side luggage
I purchased both the 21 and 28-inch sizes. The 28-inch is huge! I like the way it loads w/ almost equal sides because it seems to balance and handle better. It glides well w/ 8 wheels and I love the color I chose. My only concern is the fact that there are only two handles on the entire bag making it difficult to lift, move and grab off the luggage turnstile. My husband had to grab the bag by the wheels to get a hold of it and retrieve it before it went around again! I love the sleekness of the bag. I guess I need to get used to the fact that there are no outside pockets. I loaded the bag on the floor for my return trip and found it difficult to reach the top because it is so large. But on the plus side, I was able to pack clothes for a week long trip, all toiletries, extra shoes, my pillow, a stuffable winter coat and a few books! All in all I am very happy w/ this set. Will purchase the medium size for a trip to Europe because I believe the 28-inch will not be easily manageable for a 70+ senior.

Great product but the Handles
I love this product but the handles are unbelievably tight and scrape my knuckles. Iโm afraid when Iโm traveling, my hands will be raw. Otherwise, I love the design, large capacity, and ease in rolling. Just the handles are extremely tight.

Beware of wheel quality
I wanted to love this bag but the wheel quality is horrible. After 6 months of use (1 int'l and 3 domestic trips) the wheels died. I can't roll the bag without it being wobbly and making a horrible sound. When it was working it was heaven...so smooth when rolling. Until it wasn't. Was looking for a good alternative piece of luggage without spending on the Away price tag. Contacted Amazon for a return and also emailed Travelpro. I'm not sure if they will go to bat for the consumer but I will try. And since it's Cyber Monday I may execute on the Away shopping cart. Overall feedback: Buyer beware of wheel quality

Perfect size for all airline carry on (I got the compact carry on)
Beautiful colour, great quality, light, spacious, smooth roll, glad I waited for it to go on sale and it was available ! Originally I saw one at Hudsonโs bay and they wanted over $600!!! Ridiculous. checked their website and they go for $220. So get it on sale while you can, def feels sturdy and high quality carry on.

Love the zipped compartments. Helps keep everything organized!

Great size and wheels
Love love this bag. Fits in most airline specs except for the super small airlines. Check airline specs as they are getting much more stringent on size allowances. I donโt mind this because travellers are getting ridiculous on the size of their carry-ons. I gave 4 stars as the price of all bags are stupidly high. This bag is very well made and rolls along beautifully.
