Carpisa was very prompt and helpful in issuing an assessment of the damage done to my suitcase by an airline which helped me file a claim in a timely manner. They were easy to work with.

Terrible Experience: Poor Quality and Service

Carpisa disappointed me greatly. The products are of low quality, the employees are rude, and they have a no return policy, They rejected to return what I bought from them as they said: "It is not possible to return in our store, we can just change it" which is completely unacceptable. I wouldn’t recommend shopping here.

Dear Ali,
We are sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. We would like to clarify that, according to Italian law, returns are not mandatory for purchases made in physical stores; stores are only required to offer exchanges or repairs for faulty products. This is why our policy allows product exchanges but not returns in-store.
We appreciate your feedback and remain at your disposal for any further assistance.

Best regards

Great customer service

This summer we bought a mid sized suitcase in Milan, Italy at the Carpisa store to bring back home all the wonderful shopping we did in Italy. A gorgeous suitcase. On a trip back from India to Miami, the bag arrived but with one wheel missing. We were sad to see this happen. I reached out to the customer support team and told them if this issue and they immediately replied that they are happy to ship us extra wheels if we sent them a shipping label. A few weeks later we gave the wheels and our suitcase is brand new again. We were just wowed by the quick response and action from the team. Thank you very much!!

I had problems with the airline that destroyed my suitcase and in just two days, carpisa provided me with everything I needed so I could receive my refund. Excellent service, impeccable. Hopefully I have a carpisa suitcase! Thank you.

Smells terribly

Had this Jeep Carpisa trolley, expencive but don't know why it smells so bad, i tried everything! It never stopped smell, and I saw other people have the same problem as well!
Had it as a gift so I don't want to ask for receipt to my gf's father.. don't know what to do.

PS: Also stop saying made in Italy when in every part of my trolley there's written MADE IN CHINA

PPS: I tried to get assistance from the official store where I took it but unfortunately nobody helped. Nowadays it still smells like the first day. I tried everything possible. Just the last I take from your company. Thanks

Why this big expensive luggage smells…

Why this big expensive luggage smells like someone is dead inside it?? Even after many time I washed it, perfume it, etcetera
Nothing possible to do. It's smells so bad that I don't want to put my clean clothes in it.
I never had this problem with any kind of luggage I bought before, even the cheapest ones. Please help me if you have any solutions?!

Dear Laura,
We are sorry to hear about the unpleasant smell in your luggage. Sometimes, new luggage can have a strong odor due to the materials or manufacturing process, but this usually fades over time. Since you’ve already tried washing and perfuming it without success, here are a few suggestions you might try:
Air it out: Leave the luggage open in a well-ventilated, sunny spot for several days to help dissipate odors.
Use baking soda: Place an open box or a small bag of baking soda inside the luggage overnight or longer to absorb smells.
Activated charcoal: Similar to baking soda, activated charcoal bags can absorb odors effectively.
Vinegar spray: Lightly mist the inside with a mixture of water and white vinegar (50/50) and let it air dry. Vinegar neutralizes many odors.
Check for hidden moisture: Sometimes moisture trapped inside can cause smells; make sure the luggage is completely dry.

After first trip wheel went missing

Bought with my friend 4 suitcases on Sardegna. Two big suitcases were in checked baggage when we were flying back. I received my Gotech suitcase with 1 wheel left, my friend received her suitcase with 2 wheels left.
Worst thing we cannot find anywhere to buy replacement.
So disappointing. These Carpisa Gotech suitcases did not survive 1 trip.

Dear Maria
We inform you that damage to luggage following air boarding is, unfortunately, very frequent and that the airlines themselves recognize the responsibility by offering customers compensation in the event of an immediate complaint that has to be made to the lost&found office of the ariport. If you had, you would have received refund of the value of the luggage. Carpisa offers a free repair service, even for damaged items within two years from purchase, subject to availability of spare part, issued by all our official stores.

Worst company ever

Worst company ever. The wheels on my suitcase lasted 2 trips before they broke. Now the company refuses to send new ones or respond to my emails. Instead of sending me two new wheels, I now have to throw the whole bag away, this company doesn't care about the environment.
I should have read all the reviews on Tripadvisor before buying the bag. Scam company

Trolley with a 10 year warranty which does not really EVER apply!

I bought a Trolley M - Rigido - Gotech Plus Italy. The lady in the shop PUSHED me to buy this item rather than others highlighting a 10-year warranty on the wheels.
I have used the suitcase three times. For two times I had very few things in the suitcase but the third I filled it regularly. The screw in one of the wheels soon was lost. I had to carry the suitcase with difficulties. I asked Carpisa to replace the wheels but they denied it telling me that the reason the wheel was damagaed is either I have used it inappropraitely or I have used it for a long time or I have not preserved properly, etc.. none of which clearly applies on my case. They suggested me to buy new wheels, which probably I will have to replace every couple of trips...
I am appalled by the misleading way they have sold me the suitcase. If you want to buy an item from this company, do not do it. They tell you that there is a warranty but in reality the warranty does not exist!

Siamo spiacenti per quanto ci segnala ma la informiamo che la garanzia legale viene sancita ai sensi degli art. 128-135 del Codice del consumo e non dalla nostra azienda. Per legge, questa copre esclusivamente i difetti di produzione, che legalmente si presume si manifestino entro i 6 mesi dall'acquisto (sono pertanto esclusi i danneggiamenti indotti da usura, abrasione, conservazione, maluso ecc) e non i danneggiamenti indotti, come nel suo caso.
Siamo comunque spiacenti per il suo malcontento e restiamo a disposizione per ulteriori necessità.

Five star for helping us repair a luggage

We have a two luggages from Carpisa:

1. A carry-on, that developed in time a problem to the telescopic handle. Meaning that it either wouldn’t go in fully. Or, it wouldn’t be able to make the 3 stops/ positions that it offers, but just 1. Here’s where the support of Carpisa really blew me away.

I am a very big supporter of the idea of 0 waste (or at least as few waste as possible). So I really take care of my stuff and don’t like to throw things away just because they are partly faulty. I’m trying to repair things and keep them in the loop for as long as possible. A bulky luggage cooking somewhere in a landfill, in the sun wasn’t a very nice image… So I checked online, on Amazon, eBay, AliBaba, etc., for a universal telescopic handle. Nothing. So I decided to contact Carpisa and ask them for a replacement part. I had no expectation. Yet, to my surprise, they said yes. It is true that I had to organize the courier on my own, from Italy (their headquarters) to Romania, but, luckily, Eurosender made it possible for 18 EUR and, overall, the effort was worth it. The piece arrived well, it fitted perfectly and now the luggage is alive again.

2. A checked-in luggage
We recently have been very unlucky to have a WizzAir flight take one of them to a different country than the one where we arrived. As a nice “gift”, when it finally did arrive to the destination, it had several injuries, including a missing wheel (glad that we took some spare ones when we bought it), and a broken handle. The Carpisa repair shop help us replace the handle from another luggage that was faulty and were very kind to also check for spare zippers (we are missing one), but they didn’t have those.

Overall, we are very happy with Carpisa and we’ll keep buying luggages from them. Carpisa’s values overlap ours, from sustainability, to protecting animals (turtles, in this case), so apart from their cool-looking colorful luggages, there was a conscious decision to buy their products. We were also happy with the two-year warranty, which, btw, depending on the person working in their repair shops, might or might not depend on still having the receipt. To make sure we didn’t loose the receipt, we’re keeping it the luggage, behind the covering cloth, a place we never actually need to reach. We have the luggages already for some years. We bought them back in 2019 and we are very happy with them.

Excellent relationship with customers

Excellent relationship with customers, quick and up-to-date responses in communication via e-mails. Due to an accident with luggage at the airport, I needed a statement from the manufacturer that the bag could not be repaired. They answered in a few hours. The goods are of course great. All in all, I am very satisfied.

Mediocre quality, bad support

We bought 2 bags from a shop in Bologna, Italy, last February.
Both bags used rarely.
In a recent trip the handle of one of the bags was torn.
I contacted the online support, sent pictures, explained that I do not have the receipt anymore and received the answer that it is a result of misuse and I should contact a local craftsman to fix it "for adequate compensation".

Dear Panos
We would like to point out that to claim on warranty the customer must be in possession of the receipt, for essential fiscal purposes. We reiterate that pursuant to art. 128-135 of the Consumer Code, the legal guarantee covers exclusively production defects and not damage caused to the luggage, as in your case. This is because damaged are not linked to the quality of the item, hence not dependent form the productive business.
Certain that we have clarified your doubts, we send you our regards

Prompt & fabulous service

Hi,
I just purchased a new suitcase in Milan, Italy and needed instructions for setting the lock. I'll be traveling home in the next week so I needed to sort it out. I emailed Carpisa asking for help. I received a response immediately with instructions.
I am totally impressed. Thank you for your superior service.
