Built just as well as my first of these that I have had for 4 years. There have been some upgrades and changes, all of which make the bag even better.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I’ve had one for over a decade. Wheels are finally breaking down. I will replace with one just like it. Fabulous for versatility when airplanes say only one carry on or two items- just zip it together. I used it as my only bag for 10 day and 14 day travels to Israel, England, and Amsterdam.
Trolley Handle is not fixed properly....it is loose and screws to handle are not there....
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I don't feel like I can give a great review since I haven't used this yet, but it seems to be a very sturdy option for my daughter entering high school. She has a health problem that limits her to rolling bookbags and at the same time has a LOT to carry. This bag has lots of room, glides smoothly, and seems well built. Only time will tell if it can survive a 14 year old!
Great backpack with carry on luggage size and type roller and handle for in between transfers. Packed with 30+ pounds, used both as backpack - great design, and carry on style luggage to take the weight off shoulders for 8 days multiple planes, taxis, bus, and train transfers - pick up handle strong with steel cable had no issues, backpack straps did well.
I had 3 different models of wheel backpack from High Sierra. And this is my fourth one. Compare to the previous bags that I had this one look and feel cheap. This one also lack of side and bottom handle pull. I am a frequent traveler and I hope this one can hold up like the previous bags.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My previous model is 10 or 12 years old and still good except the zipper on the back case is now very difficult to engage and close. This old model like me at 87 has traveled all over the world with me and been a godsend. My wife also has one and we spent three weeks in Europe and never checked a bag. It was great. The new model is all one piece and an improved design. It will be going with me to Iceland in August.
