The suitcase capacity is 5 stars, but the outside construction leaves a lot to be desired. While I expected their to be some wear and tear on the outside after 1 trip (and that was only to my EU destination, not the return) the checked luggage looks like it is years old vs. brand new (or even newish).
Although I haven’t used my luggage yet I can visually see how well made and durable this piece is. However, during my upcoming trip to Florida in May we’ll see whether or not it’s looks are backed up through actual use.
I bought this carryon because my Tumi wasn’t rolling well…I travel for business a ton and when I bought the Tumi I wasn’t traveling near as much. This Samsonite rolls so much easier and smoother!!
