Love the size. Bigger than a carry-on but not too obnoxiously big. I love the navy color.
Great for longer trips.

Lightweight and beautiful. The rollers are very flexible and smooth. They just picked up scratches easily. But I can't blame them since you have no control over what is done to them as checkin bags.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased this set September of 2024. It’s been on 6 trips since then. Very study and easy to maneuver. My only gripe is it scratches easily. The front of my luggage had deep scratches after one trip.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cheap and hard to roll
on March 12, 2025
Posted by: Nyk
I bought the 28 large after looking at all the reviews and comparing suitcases. The suitcase is extremely hard to roll and the handle is flimsy and doesn’t have many adjustment heights. It is awkward and seems a lot cheaper than it looks online. I would not buy again and plan to return my unused 21/28 combo purchase.

The product is solid, however there are very few airlines you can actually take this bag as a carry on due to its slightly larger dimensions. I believe calling this bag a "carry on" is a misnomer. I would not have purchased it had I realized how few airlines actually accept a bag this size as a carry on. But I should have researched that myself in the first place.

pull-out telescoping handle is a real problem
on September 8, 2025

The suitcase itself looks fine, but the pull-out telescoping handle is a real problem. It doesn’t open or close smoothly at all—you have to shake it around and fight with it just to get it to lock into place. Every time we use it, it feels like a struggle. For something as basic and important as the handle, this is really disappointing and makes travel more frustrating than it should be.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
