Durable. light weight. Lots of room. overall a good item.
I wish it had a closable interior flap on BOTH sides so that if the suitcase pops open smaller items will not fall out. The elastic straps are good for bigger items of clothing, but not small items.

Disappointing!
on April 17, 2025
Posted by: False advertising
Gender:Male
Just bought 2 Freeform Large Spinners that are advertised with "Overall Dimensions: 31.1 in. x 20.9 in. x 13.8 in." All of these 3 dimensions do not much actual measurements regardless of how you extend the retractable handles. Actual dimensions as measured in the attached photos are: 29-7/8" x 20" x 12". Very disappointed. I needed the 31" height to fit a 28-inch exercise roller that I must have during my travels.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Solid Luggage

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have only had this a short time but it’s proving to be a great asset for travel. Solid luggage - rolls great and for checked baggage, it’s holding up well. Built in locks are a nice addition.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Slightly too big for most airlines

Nice suitcase, but slightly too big for almost every airline. You may be forced to check it at the gate for a small fortune if they are strict.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Generally Pleased
on November 5, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am generally pleased with the overall design and functionality of this suitcase, particularly its lightness and the ease of mobility provided by the spinner wheels.
However, I have a few concerns regarding the quality and design of specific components:
Interior Protective Cover: The interior protective divider cover billows out, making it difficult to flatten against the sides when packing. While this is a minor issue, it creates an inconvenience that I have not experienced with my previous Samsonite models.
Integrated Lock and Zipper Mechanism: I have reservations about the durability of the integrated lock system. The zipper pulls appear to remain partially exposed when inserted into the lock, rather than sitting flush. They seem to be held only at the very edge of the mechanism. Given the rough handling luggage often receives during air travel, I am concerned this design presents a potential point of failure that could lead to breakage, an issue absent in my older Samsonite suitcases.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Confused size description online
on November 23, 2025
Posted by: Lilian
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time purchasing this item online, and the size description was very confusing. The listing said the suitcase was 27.5 inches, but the actual product is a 24-inch medium. The height includes the wheels, which makes it look larger on paper, but it is still classified as a 24-inch bag.
Because of this unclear description, I ended up ordering the wrong size. When I tried to return it, I found out that there would be additional fees, which was disappointing since the mistake was caused by the misleading information on the website.
Overall, the product itself is nice, but I really hope the company can update the size details to avoid confusion for future customers.
