Our previous Samsonite cases have lasted 35 years & still going but are heavy so decided to buy a new set.Good points:Manoeuvrability, lightweight, capacityNot so good:Strap design on one side is poor. It doesn't come from the corners so doesn't hold things in at all. It also pulls the lining up and leaves gaps all around the edge.Scratches very easilyThe expander zip which was closed just split apart during the flight.My husbands case ended with a bent security zip after one flight.Samsonite were not interested but John Lewis customer service superb as usual. This is why we purchase through John Lewis. Not often issues but when there are you can rely on them!

I bought this for a trip abroad and after returning it (the yellow one) is already looking aged. The plastic has worn more than I would expect in places and without a suitcase belt around it, it did not feel stable (I actually thought it may break despite being well below the limit and itrms distributed. Nor did it move easily. Given I have problems with moving/carrying cases, and bought this as my first 4-wheeled case, I found it harder than I was assured it would be. Handling it weighted is vastly different to when empty in a shop. And the wear after a return flight is highly disappointing. For anyone expecting high standards from a samonsite, I would strongly recommend you try them weighted, and bear in mind cost v benefit.

The thread holding the hard case and the zipper together is completely exposed and very fragile, especially at the corners. I took my case on one trip which has resulted in the thread snapping at 3 corners and once again on the bottom flat side.The damage to to my bag accumilated across several flights and is not a case of mishandled baggage (just a poor design choice). Most bags have a plastic guard protecting this part of the bag to prevent this issue.If you do own one of these and expect to travel with it, I recommend finding a way to protect the corners from abrasion. Otherwise these threads will tear and start falling apart.I've sent an email to customer care to see if this can be repaired under warranty, but not keeping my hopes up.

I bought this to replace a 20 year old samsonite suitcase which is still very usable but quite heavy on its own. It also survived the tsunami of 2004 so a really sturdy case. However I needed a lighter one and this new case is definitely that. I certainly noticed the difference when weighing the case in at check in. The only criticism is it has just one middle strap inside to hold the clothes down and it could do with 2. It is very easy to manoeuvre even when full! Also there is a variety of colours to choose from.
This case is robust but lightweight and has loads of space. Using it expanded to pack and then closing the expander zip allowed me to fit everything I needed and to meet airline 20kg limit. The only comment I have is that because of the central position of the zip, the handle is not central. However since most of the time I was wheeling it, that didn't matter. It was very easy to wheel it and as long as you pack evenly between the top and bottom sections, it is very stable. I might add a luggage strap just to give a little more protection to the zip being under strain round the middle.
This has a solid but flexible casing and is of a good size. The casing has a 'wavey' design which makes it easy to pick out at baggage reclaim, even though it is dark blue. It is spacious inside and expands a bit as well. The wheels work smoothly. I found it impossible to work out how the lock works and had to ring up to find out. Now I know it works well, but it is far from obvious. The only part of the case I have a concern about is the zip, which appears somewhat flimsy. Overall, I am happy with it.
The grab handle at the side broke the second time I used the suitcase which was hugely inconvenient. The securing part of the handle is only made of thin plastic and snapped also the grip part is exposed for damage if the case is slid on its side.The design and construction is nowhere near what I've experienced with Samsonite products in the past and in my opinion this suitcase is not fit for purpose.John Lewis exchanged the suitcase for a different Samsonite one which I'm very pleased with.Great service from John Lewis, rubbish product from Samsonite.
This is the first luggage I have ever bought with my own money. Based from my past experiences with Samsonite, I was confident with the quality of their bags. However, nothing can be said with this luggage. On my first ever trip using this luggage, the zipper already broke off and there were visible scratches and bumps already. It looked like I had the luggage for years now. The outer shell was flexible but I'm afraid that it will crack one of these days and I don't think the handle can carry the weight of the things inside the luggage. Although the Samsonite customer service was great because I got the zipper fixed easily. All in all, I do not recommend anyone getting this luggage and I regret buying it.
I wanted a brightly coloured suitcase that would stand out. I found a cheerful bright yellow Samsonite. The sales assistant in the Oxford Street branch tactfully suggested it also came in grey, blue or black. I feel in a holiday mood looking at the yellow case and know that no one will accidentally take it off the carousel.The exterior of the case is strong and the wheels feel secure. The interior is spacious with useful zipped spaces. Yes it was expensive but I'm very happy with it. And yes, strangers approach me and tell me how they like my suitcase. I'm extremely happy with it.
We love these cases, they feel very sturdy and durable, but the test of use is still to come, although with a 5 year guarantee we feel quite confident. Liked the extra pockets inside for paperwork etc. Loved the little hidden tag by the handle for the included address label, we liked the fact that it's tucked away out of sight but handy if needed. Handles all feel strong and the adjustable handle has many different levels which is great. The zips are very neat too, and the zip to expand even has expand written on it, so you'll not get them muddled when trying to open the case. We got yellow as it's easy to see on the carousel, just hope not too many people have the same idea.
