Rolls Well but Quality Issues
on November 19, 2025
Posted by: Ready
from Texas
Huge fan of Peak Design products, but this is not the bag you’re searching for.
Quality issues lead to very loud unfixable hinge noise and a handle that wiggles. The design does not save enough space as a benefit to offset these issues for a premium priced bag. You also lose packing space due to all the extra layers of material on both sides of the top lid.
I will say it rolls really easily and the stiff one piece handle is nice except for the wiggle.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

First Impressions
on November 18, 2025
Posted by: ALS
1st trip impressions:
Be careful if you check the bag in its expanded form - I carry on when going, but often check a bag when coming home if it's full and heavy with new acquisitions. The danger is that the zipper is exposed when expanded, and on its maiden voyage the teeth of the zipper were damaged. I can still kind of close it but I foresee problems ahead. The lesson I learned is to pack the bag in it's expanded form and then squish it down to compress it and zip up the expandable section. This worked really well even when the bag was really packed out. I never needed the elastic cords to hold the contents because of this, but if you needed to open the bag while vertical I can see where the cords would be useful.
Since I always fly with a personal item, I use the exterior top pocket to hold my liquid toiletries bag where if I need to I can retrieve it, plus things like gloves and a hat which I might need to quickly grab.
I don't travel with a laptop, only a tablet, so I may cut out the security flap features of the front pocket like another reviewer did. I did use the laptop compartment to stow papers and flat items that I didn't need access to.
I didn't think I would but ended up enjoying the see-through small pockets to keep bits and bobs like locks, s-hooks, laundry supplies, packable tote bags, shoe covers - things I don't need in my personal item but are nice to have separate storage for.
(FYI the personal item I use right now is the Patagonia Micro MLC, and the luggage pass-thru fits over the PD Roller handle pretty easily with a bit of jiggling.)
The bag is heavier than my hardsided carry-on, but I have grown to hate the room those bags need to open clam-shell style and the restricted packing space, so the drawbridge opening is a game changer for me. Even fully loaded, I didn't have any problem carrying it for short distances by hand or putting in in an overhead compartment. The four handles really help maneuverability.
Minor niggles: I wish they'd used zippers that have a hole for a cable lock. Also, the Hinge Creak is real and I wish they put the fix on the product page - I'm having trouble finding it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Be careful of your colors

Be very careful when buying the eclipse bag. In many of the photo's it appear brown but be warned that it is extremely plum purple. Otherwise nice bag but surprisingly heavy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

And Roll It Does
on November 14, 2025

An excellent bag that really only might be said to have one flaw: that the rolling part of the Roller Pro might be too good. If you happen to be on an uneven surface at the airport make sure to keep an eye on your bag!

Solid bag

Very happy with the design features and build quality.
One suggestion: add attachment points for the lid such that you can open the lid while the unit is upright. The strings would catch the bag with an adjustable opening (about 15cm). This would allow you to slightly open the bag at the airport to access the pockets built into the lid.

Great trolley, a bit too heavy and noisy while opening
But great features combined with the camera cube

Eclipse Roller Pro Carry On is Fabulous!
on November 11, 2025
Posted by: Lynne
Just took my new Eclipse (dark plum) fabulous color Roller Pro Carry On for a 10-day road trip, couldn't be happier! Main compartment holds my packing cubes perfectly with some shoes/toiletries, tablet fits into the front slot (accessible from both the outside AND the inside, a plus!), bag is SO lightweight unlike my other ones, smooth never-miss wheels, tough performing handle telescope, and the shell held up awesomely!...My husband got the sage one, he loves it too!
I would recommend this to a friend!

It was worth the wait. Now I just need a trip so I can put it to the test. Functions well as a production bag. I wish I got the Camera Cube XL with it
I would recommend this to a friend!
