Dimensions too large

Dimensions including wheels are about 1 inch too large for most domestic flights (22 x14 x 9). I would rather not take a chance at the airport. Why make them too large?
I chose this bag because it fits in most overhead bins. I have a previous model and love it - the new one is for my husband. The handle is on the new one does not operate as smoothly and the metal feels flimsier. It does have a gusset that mine does not have.
This piece of luggage is smaller than advertised. The website lists the overall dimensions as 31.1" x 20.95" x 13.8". I interpreted this to be the overall dimensions of the suitcase, but instead these are the overall dimensions of the box it came in, not the suitcase itself.
I purchased this piece based on these dimensions, as they are very close to the dimensions of the luggage I am replacing. However the actual overall dimensions are 29" x 20" x 13", and there is a noticeable decrease in the capacity of the luggage versus my old piece. I'll be returning it for this reason.
Not very compact and doesn’t hold a lot of stuff. Is however, lightweight and easy to maneuver. Got very scratched up as a checked bag. Is a beautiful piece of luggage though. Mixed feelings on this one.
