Very unsatisfied on this purchase. On the First use the TSA lock hook broke.
We have previously retired our old Samsonite and purchased three of the Freeform design. One broke on us on the first use. Our previous Samsonite lasted 10 years with just normal scruffs all around which is normal but never had issues on the zipper lock. Perhaps it’s how the lock hook is designed on the TSA lock. Not very happy about this considering it’s only the first use!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Each time we’ve used our bags something fails. The zipper failed the first time, the second time a plastic piece ( I think the built in tag)came loose and we were unable to reattach. Seem to get very scratched up so, our new luggage looks worn, right out the gate. (No pun intended) . We have 3 of these but next go round we will likely look elsewhere since there doesn’t seem to be a good warranty for these kinds of defects.

Beware!! I bought 4 of the carry on 21" since my airline carry on was 22" However with the wheels these are 23" . Great luggage but not for airline travel.

this bag BARELY meets the carry on size requirements for many airlines and doesn't meet them at all for some.

This bag was highly-rated on multiple review sites, so I purchased it for an upcoming trip. When I received the luggage I was impressed by the quality of the product. When I checked the airline website to make sure it would meet their Carry-On dimensions it wouldn't qualify. I recently checked the Samsonite Chart and only 3 out of 31 airlines consider it a Carry-On Luggage.
