  • Built to Last
Size: Checked Medium 25-Inch Color: Black
Have used this on many trips-domestically & internationally. Fantastic carry on that stores a lot of stuff. The exterior pockets are perfect for my iPad, chargers & easy to reach stuff. Love the wheels & retractable handle too. This is a sturdy carry on!

  • Luggage that actually meets Airline Carry-On Reqt
Size: Compact Carry On 20-Inch Color: Ensign Blue
When searching for carry-on luggage, it seems that the luggage sizes widely vary even though they may say they meet airline reqt dimensions. These actually meet the 22"x14"x9" size reqt including wheels & handles. Additionally, these are very light at just 6.1lbs. Just that reqt alone eliminated 90% of the carry-on's that I searched for. The luggage itself appears well made and good quality. The wheels spin easily & freely. They attach slightly recessed into the bag so hopefully that helps them stay intact when travelling. The handle telescopes up with two handle lengths possible. The grab handles are thick & heavy rubber to avoid any broken handle issues. They also are closely aligned to the bag so as not to increase overall size. The built-in TSA lock works well and is easy to set your own code. The bag does have a 2" expansion gusset should you need to put more in it but this will expand it passed the carry-on size reqt. On the interior, I liked that both sides have zippered enclosed compartments. This will making packing the clamshell type case easier and nothing falls out when opening/closing. The zippers all move freely and don't anticipate any issues. Ended up with the Ensign Blue color as other desired color was sold out. After receiving it, the Ensign Blue color was appealing and happy with my choice. ... show more

  • Broken suitcase telescope handle on Travelpro Maxlite Air Hardside Medium 25”
Size: Checked Medium 25-Inch Color: Ensign Blue
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 Travelpro’s "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. ... show more

Lightweight and easy to roll, haven’t used it on a trip yet. More comments after it has been put to the test!

  • Great bag, one flaw, but (eventually!) excellent customer service to make it right!
I don't have much to add to L. Belanger's excellent review above. The bag itself is a dream to use - well made, swivels or can be tipped up to use on just 2 wheels and works flawlessly either way. There is plenty of space, and I really appreciate the way the expansion section is designed as it adds significant cubic inches to the overall capacity without compromising the bag's ability to fit in an overhead bin. However ... the cheap plastic wheels are of very poor quality and will degrade, especially if you take this overseas anywhere where the airport flooring isn't polished tile or concrete. Literally 2 days after my 1 year warranty had expired I took a trip to SE Asia and returned home with the above flat spot now worn into the wheels, a consequence of one of them getting stuck and dragged (unbeknownst to me) for a day or two. "No worries," I thought, "I'll just order a replacement set of wheels. It'll cost me $20 for $2 worth of rubber, but I'm happy to do that to keep a $150 bag on the road." So I started to search for replacement wheels. No dice. No one on Amazon sells them, though there are MANY different versions that are almost the same thing (almost meaning useless in this context, as if it won't screw into the same holes, you can't use it). So I wrote Travelpro, asking where I could buy one from them. I was happy to overpay, again, as I didn't want to throw the bag in the garbage and all it needed was a simple replacement (which no specialized mechanical knowledge was required for - it's literally just unscrewing 5 screws). They insisted I take it to their repair center over an hour away. I refused, knowing that I was past the warranty deadline and would be charged for the repair, which would likely cost most of the price of just buying a new one. After several emails were exchanged, they asked for my address - I assumed I had won and they were going to send me a new wheel assembly! A few days later, a suspiciously large package arrived - it turns out they sent me a whole new bag, free of charge, despite me being out of warranty! So, amazing customer service, I have to say, in the end. They definitely made it right. Now if only I could figure out what to do with the other bag - I still don't want to throw it away! ... show more
