Really well designed, best roller bag I've owned

I've had many different higher end roller bags including Tumi and Away (and my check in is a Rimowa) but hands down, this roller bag is an incredibly designed and thoughtful travel piece. I've only had it for 2 months, but it's already made trips from the US to all over Europe and Asia, and continues to amaze me. The hinge design makes it so much easier to open on the fly, and it can fit a lot more than my other carry on backs.
Got mine through an early Kickstarter pledge. It rolls great - silent on tiles and smooth on concrete and asphalt. Haven't tried it on gravel. It's weatherproof and sturdy, even when expanded. The grips on both sides and the top are handy for carrying the roller up the stairs or swinging it around to ward off assailants and wild animals. The front full-open style access allows for easy packing. The laptop sleeve and EDC pockets are very convenient when you are working on the go. There's one thing I want Peak Design to do for me. Design a strap that I can attach to this roller, allowing me the option to use it as a backpack.
And to all those still unable to decide which roller to buy... a whisper of advice: >> THIS IS THE ONE <<
I bought this as a gift for my husband. I did not expect it to show up before we left for Europe for a few weeks but it arrived a day early and this thing is amazing! The way it rolls is incredible. We rolled it through airports, train stations, across cobblestone, and bumpy pavement and it didn’t feel flimsy or tip over. We stuffed it full of our children’s toys, souvenirs, a couple of rain jackets, and shoes and everything fit and came home in perfect condition. Traveling with my husband can be stressful. I honestly think this roller + the backpack made him a more pleasant traveler. You need to make a full size version and then he will become the ultimate traveler. Ya’ll get a pass this year since he got the roller as a Father’s Day gift. Buuut I need ideas for his birthday!! - Nov ‘26. 🤞🤞
I had my doubts when I saw it. I am happy to say I was pleasantly surprised. Every single aspect of the carry on fulfilled kickstarter expectations. Every nook and cranny has a purpose and I love the way its designed. There is nothing I would change, and I love how convenient every pocket, hook, and opening is for everything I consider taking with me on trips. Every aspect of the carry on feels well made and sturdy.
I travel as a photographer for a living and was tired of carrying a 40LBS backpack through airports on a weekly basis! So glad I switched and the quality of this bag and XL camera cube are amazing!!
Recently took my new roller bag on a three week European adventure. Couple with the 40-45l backpack, and came home with a weeks worth of clean clothes. First trip with the new bag and found zero drawbacks.Replaced Tumi., normal folding carryon with Peak. Really liked the telescoping handle and extra interior space. Am sure that with usage, I will become more familiar with the features. Grab handles all around bag make lifting simple. And Peak backpack couple with bag easily.
Overall, both products are great. The only challenge is getting the Travel Pack sleeve strap off the handle of the Roller Pro as it gets hung up when trying to separate the two. The super techie Roller Pro handle hooks the sleeve strap on the pack.
I love this bag. It has everything I was hoping for in a bag, built incredible, storage is perfect, rolls like a dream. Every detail was thought about.
