Review on Sherpa 55231 Deluxe Pet Carriers by Carlos Reyes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bill Leininger

So far I am a loyal user of the Sherpa bag. My first Sherpa bag lasted 19 years! My second Sherpa bag, bought 4 years ago, fell apart after 2.5 years as the quality isn't the same anymore. In May 2016 I bought my third and last Sherpa bag. It broke in less than 8 months! The top entry zipper has separated from the fabric at the top of the bag. What waste! When trying to process a warranty claim I wasted 30 minutes because the receipt from Revain wasn't good enough. I saved photos of the broken bag in 4 different file formats including tiff, jpeg etc but each time the Sherpa guarantee website told me to use one of the 5 formats (which I did 4 times!). When I called a Sherpa in Colorado today, I couldn't name a living person, I could only leave a voice message. It's not profitable for me to spend more than 45 minutes processing a claim for a defective bag, so I just throw it in the bin. !MORAL TO THIS STORY"DON'T BUY SHERP HELP - YOU ARE HUM NOW!"

Pros
  • Approved for use on most airlines and included in the Sherpa Guaranteed On Board program. DO NOT select carrier size based on weight alone. First select the size of the carrier based on the size of your pet and then make sure it does not exceed the maximum weight. The stretcher is designed for safe and comfortable travel; The pet has no extra room to move
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
