- Cadence, 24 Inch Checked Medium Hardside Luggage, Deep Black

This Delsey Paris Cadence hard-sided luggage is almost a piece of art. I never thought I'd say that about luggage, but here I am. I got the 20-inch carry-on size and it holds A LOT thanks to how the luggage is constructed. The hard exterior is very strong and durable but also thinner than you'd find in a piece of soft luggage. This allows for that bit of extra space to pack more in. The locking mechanism, alone, is unique and works excellently. I love how the zipper ends are actual locking mechanisms that latch right into the body of the case, eliminating the need to use the usual padlock which knocks around loose on the outside. I had no problem changing the code and find it very easy to lock and unlock. Another great feature I've never seen before is the design that allows you to charge electronics inside the case without having to open the luggage and remove them. There's a USB-C cord that's placed near a secure zippered pocket on the inside of the case, where you can put a battery pack. The other end of the cord is located next to the lock on the outside of the case. This means you can charge your phone or tablet anywhere at all just by connecting it to your suitcase! Brilliant! No more worry about trying to find a free charging port at the airport. Another thoughtful feature is the integration of a dedicated tag to attach a bluetooth tracker. No more worry about keeping track of loose bluetooth trackers getting lost. The zipper that opens the case is also special. It's actually TWO zippers instead of just one, making it extra secure. I should mention, the double zipper does make it a little more challenging to zip the case open and closed but I'm fine with that given the extra security. The added expandable zippered section adds over 2 inches of extra depth to the interior. The wheel base is extremely smooth to operate and allows the luggage to maneuvered in any direction. When the handle is fully extended it reaches 41" high. I also really like the lining material in side the bag. It's supposed to be made from an odor-eliminating fabric (haven't had a chance to test this yet) but what I like about it is that it looks high end and feels like it will be extremely easy to keep clean. It has an almost slippery quality to it but doesn't feel plastic. Good luggage is never cheap but I've never come across the kind of thoughtful extra details included with this suitcase. I would happily buy another.

I needed a larger size suitcase for some upcoming travels, so I was excited to order this DELSEY PARIS Cadence hardside expandable suitcase. I had a hard time deciding on the size, so I went with the middle-sized one, the 24-inch, and I am glad I did. It's plenty large enough for my longer trips, and I love that it has a zipper all around that lets me expand the depth by a few inches in case I need to pack a bulky coat or some souvenirs from my travels. This suitcase is rugged, but incredibly light. It spins and moves so easily, with high-quality wheels and handle. I got the Brushed Silver color and especially like the texture on the outside, which looks sharp and also hides scratches. It's very durable and stylish-looking. The inside has many thoughtful touches, including tie-down straps to secure clothing, pretty striped odor-resistant fabric lining, multiple mesh zip pockets to secure smaller items, two roomy zip compartments, and two drawstring bags for shoes or laundry. There's even an integrated air tag holder, which is really nice, because I do always hide a tracker somewhere in my bag when I travel, just in case. This bag also has a secure zipper lock that is TSA-friendly and easy to set with a code of my choice. The suitcase even comes with its own dust bag for storage. Honestly, there's nothing I don't love about this suitcase. It's the perfect size for a checked bag and has every amenity I could wish for. All suitcases should be designed so thoughtfully. DELSEY PARIS truly thought of everything a traveler might need. It's fantastic and well worth the value.

I travel a lot for both business and pleasure and have had a set of Delsey luggage I have used for going on 7 years now. Comparing this piece to my existing Delsey bag of the same size some upgrades are apparent. The bag are both similarly sized, being the large 28 inch model, and hold similar amounts - the new bag does however come with some upgrades like the inclusion of an air tag holder (I use tile, so I still have to throw the tile in the shoe pocket) The zippers inside and out are smoother and easier to use (not sure if that is because they are newer than my old bag, or if they are improved - but it is a noticeable difference that these move much easier). If this holds up as well as the other bag I am sure this will last for many years, as Delsey seems to make quality luggage, my only problem with the older bags is that one of the telescoping handles doesn't stay locked, a minor complaint given 7 years of use. I have had other brands of luggage where the interior plastic shell has shattered - which was likely the fault of rough handling on the ramp, but my Delsey bags have all held up well. The wheels on this bag are really good too, moving smoothly. Overall, I love the way this bag looks, I love the new printed material inside the bag, the nice touches like the air tag holder (although I would love to see it hold other brands of tracker)
