Christmas present for semester abroad in school. Literally, when at the airport, in lifting this "sturdy" suitcase out of the trunk, the top handle snapped and broke. Have no choice but to awkwardly carry this large suitcase up stairs, etc. with a broken handle for 6 months.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This luggage is great, but, wheels are not. One bump in curb. Cannot find wheel replacement? Why other than Samsonite wanting you to buy another suitcase would they not sell replacement wheels. HELP
