Best Carry-On Available
on October 27, 2025
Posted by: HToddy
Best carry-on I have ever owned! The design, finish quality and functionality of this bag are industry leading without question. I've read other reviews. For the low ones, I think you got a bad build, sorry to say. My bag is flawless. I've now used it on 10 trips, given it a proper bit of roughing up in the course of my trips, and this bag still performs and looks great! It even fit (somehow) in the overhead bin of a CRJ, and those are notoriously small. I've been approached by other road warriors in the TSA line who, like me, are always seeing what other people travel with. They are curious and I'm happy to explain some of the great features of this bag. I still own several B&R bags, but I'm pleasantly stunned how amazingly right Peak Design got it with their first bag.

smooth rolling

I bought this off Kickstarter. Arrived 2 days before my trip. Perfect timing.
Suitcase itself is on the heavier side so had to buy extra carry on allowance. Incredibly spacious internals. Love that it doesn't open like a book, the main compartment opening is so genius. Handle and wheels were so smooth, hopefully it stays as long as possible.

Great bag - except the wheels
on October 15, 2025
Posted by: mr1970
I bought this a couple months ago, generally I'm a big fan of Peak gear and I have a bunch of their stuff. I'm a frequent traveler to the tune of millions of actual flight miles over the last 30 years of my career so my luggage is important to me in that it needs to be highly functional, durable, and should stay below the radar when I'm actually using it. If I notice something bothering me about it, that's not great.
So, I love the weight, the styling, and pockets and compartments. The drawbridge opening is pretty cool and I like how Peak did the low profile handlebar to render more usable space in the bag. The side handles on the bag top and sides are cool and have loosened up a little after a few trips. My only real ding on the bag: the wheels.
I've had eBags, TravelPro, Away, etc in the past and generally speaking their wheels have done the job well and stayed off my radar, they just work. I think the wheels on the Roller Pro are either slightly undersized or maybe the bearings aren't working well. It works great on hard flooring and outdoors like on sidewalks or hotel lobbies. It doesn't push effortlessly on carpeted floors at hotels/airports and any other situation where there's a little drag on the wheels. I find that the handlebar setup at full extension exacerbates the situation in the less-than-smooth flooring situations, it tends to push the bag over because the center of effort is too high when you have to exert extra effort on high drag floor surfaces. It works better of you lower the handlebar to its lower lock setting but it's still not what I would call super well balanced.
I lean more towards thinking the wheels are a bit undersized because it doesn't "curb hop" particularly capably relative to something like a TravelPro. For example going over structured thresholds at hotels or airports - the small bumps that you encounter going into and out of facilities or from sidewalk to street back to sidewalk. The bag tends to lose its balance in those situations which is why I think it's a wheel size issue.
Everything else about the bag has been great, I prefer it due to its capacity and how well it works with the rest of my Peak gear. If Peak revisits the wheel setup it'll be perfect.

Classy and functional

I bought the roller pro carry-on suitcase on Kickstarter and received it several weeks ago. I finally had a trip to give it the real world test. It was as good as advertised if not better, I got multiple compliments in likely more sales for peak design. At this point, I have no negative comments or recommendations. It is beautifully designed and functional. Can’t wait to see what peak design comes out with next.

So far so good
on October 8, 2025

I’ve only had my Roller Pro 6 weeks-or-so and so far only done about 20 flights with it so it’s early days. However first impressions are positive. Very pleased with the quality look-and-feel, and manoeuvrability is superb. I’m also appreciating small details I didn’t notice in the marketing blurb, for instance the carry handles on all sides are super-useful. So right now I am very happy. Let’s see how it’s holding up after 3 years and another million-or-so miles!

Absolutely love this bag

I’ve put the Roller Pro through real-world travel and on-set days, and it’s a standout. As a photographer and frequent flyer, the size is perfect on site for work, it glides through airports as a carry-on, and its design stays discreet everywhere. I also use it for weekends away. Extremely happy with the versatility and solidity, this roller feels built for the long haul. Five stars.

PD Has Outdone Themselves!

Peak Design has utterly redone what people expect in a carry-on bag. The drawbridge opening and carbon fiber are easy to notice, but even mundane things like the wheels are new. You have to touch the bag to appreciate everything that has been put into it - and you will never regret buying one!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Worth the wait
on September 23, 2025

Just received my bag from Kickstarter fullfillment, well it was worth the wait, it works for size, versatility and is just what i needed to retire my old eagle creek carry on. The workmanship, design and innovation is all that was decribed and more. Yes I know there was a lot of negativity about the time to fulfill but to be fair PD have been upfront and communicated often. I really think it has been worth the wait, as i have said to many Peak Design better by design.
