Traveler's Choice Tasmania 100% Pure Polycarbonate Expandable Spinner Luggage, Dark Brown, Carry-on 20-Inch

I took a job out of state which requires lots of traveling. So far I have used this luggage for two separate round-trip flights, back to back. Including connection flights, I'd say the luggage has been handled at the airport a total of eight times. I'm pretty sure it's had a rough enough beating for me to give an accurate review. I've got one more flight into New York after this review so I'll be sure to provide an update later.Delivery - I was VERY nervous when my package arrived as the cardboard box it came in had a HUGE hole in it! It looked like someone literally kicked it off the truck, lol. So while opening the box up, I was careful because I thought for sure I would be returning it. I was pleasantly surprised to find the luggage inside with no damage (whew!). Looking back now, that was my first indication of this product's durability.Aesthetics - I ordered the 3 piece set in the purple - LOVE IT. It has a slight metallic finish which gives the color a nice punch. The skin of the luggage has a diamond-grid texture which gives it an overall nice quality look (I'll try to add a picture so you can see). Whatever color you get I'm sure the finishes add to the entire look (thumbs up for that). The main picture does it no justice. VERY easy to spot in Baggage Claim. I get lots of compliments at the airport :)Durability - As stated my luggage has already had a pretty rough beating, with more to come, and it looks great! I've listed my points below:1. There are scratches? Where? Oh, I see them...I actually didn't find the scratches until a week ago. Due to the textured finish, scratches are difficult to find. It's also a darker shade of purple, so that helps to hide any wear and tear. Actually the most damage was done on the tiny "Traveler's Choice" logo where it's ALL scratched up (which I could care less about).2. There are no dents anywhere. Although the hard shell for this luggage is a little flexible, it's VERY durable. My guess is that this luggage shell was designed with some "give" in order for it to take on impacts. Don't let the "bend" of the material fool you - very strong stuff.3. Spinner wheels move easily and smoothly. Because I am traveling back and forth from California, to Kentucky, and to New York it is an absolute MUST for me to be able to move all around with ease. I currently have two pieces with me, medium and large, which I have dragged through airports and hotels. My legs are tired but my arms feel great, lol. The luggage set comes with with a "belt" attachment where you can connect luggage pieces together - VERY NICE! It works whether I have the cases slanted/angled, or pulling it upright where all four wheels are on the floor. No complaints - well done4. Zippers still work and are intact. They run up and down the lines smoothly. I like that the zipper tags/grips are large (about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in length). I haven't really used the TSA lock included on the luggage yet, simply because I'm a klutz and will figure out a way to lock myself out (scared!). So instead I insert the zipper tags inside the mechanism without a lock code just so my bags wont open while being handled. I've had no problems.5. Pull handles are durable, however I do get nervous when I stretch them all the way out. They seem like when they're fully extended, they get a little looser? Now, they are still intact and work fine! This is just an observation.Spacious!! - I like the inside compartment with the mesh inserts on the outside of it (difficult to explain so I'll try to post a picture). Great for putting shoes in, papers, or even jackets. It's a nice way to keep stuff out the way of your clothes. I was able to store one month's worth of clothes in the large piece, while my medium piece had papers, shoes, and coats (I have a carry-on too, but only for toiletries, hair brushes/combs, and various personal items. I prefer to keep that kind of stuff on me while traveling).Conclusion - I am VERY pleased with this purchase! This is my third time buying a set of luggage, and I have never been this happy all-around. Definitely would recommend this set for anyone. (I put the update in the "Comments" area below)

After using these suitcases for 5.5 years on land, sea and air, they are still in perfect condition. The raised ribbing on the outside helps to keep them from getting scratched and banged up. I have used these a lot, and I mean a lot. I am so happy with the purchase that I made when I got these, and I highly encourage anybody who might be looking at them to go ahead and buy them. I do not believe you will be disappointed. Very durable and well-made, and a very good product. They are spacious, very easy to walk with, maneuver and spin around.So far, I love these suitcases. This is my 2nd set of hard sided luggage, and they are superior to my first set (by a different manufacturer). Light weight, sturdy, and I love the ribbed outside of the suitcase. This will help with the scratching of the surface and any wear and tear. I have not flown with these yet, but will do so at the end of the month. The wheels are spinners, and have fluid movement. I was pleased to see that this set included suitcase straps, so I can strap them together, kind of nestled, when using all of them. Much easier to maneuver them in the airport. I got the navy blue, which is a very nice color. They are not cheaply made, and I can tell they will provide a lot of protection to my contents. I will never go back to soft-sided luggage. These might scratch up a bit on the outside, but they will stay in tact. My other hard-sided luggage, though still able to use, started to peel on the outside, and they marked up easily. I am happy to see that these, with the ribbed outside texture, will wear better, and I will probably not have the same experience with these, because of how the outside is made. I had soft-sided luggage in the past, and they ripped, the metal structural pieces started poking out of the fabric, and the wheels bent easily, plus they did not provide the same amount of protection for the contents as the hard-side luggage does. I would buy these again. It is nice to see that they also have the TSA approved luggage locks. My other set did not.

My travel mates made so much fun of me because I kept holding out for the perfect bag that checked all my requirements:Hard-sideNot flimsy cheap plastic feelExpandableTSA LocksPURPLE!The one was it!I have not traveled with it yet and if any problems arise, I will come back and update.My observations: Suitcase materials are very study. I have checked out so many that feel flimsy and easily pushed in with very little effort - not this one. Texture is nice and looks like visible scratches won't be a problem. The TSA locks are fabulous. Feel very sturdy and were easy to set my new combination. Instructions that were attached to bag very easy to understand. The zippers run smoothly and appear to be good quality and the expansion room is just right. The only issue is the pull handle isn't the smoothest but it also has not been worked much. Nothing horrible that would make me not consider this bag. Wheels appear substantial and roll smoothly. The interior workmanship looks very nice and the lining is padded! Not super thick, feels more like a thin foam sheet backing the material but it makes the look and feel much nicer than the standard thin lining inside most cases. This case is much nicer than ones I considered for twice the price!And best of all, if you are a fan of purple (Go K-State Wildcats!) you will love this!

La calidad de la maleta es buena y resistente. Buen precio! Llego muy rápido a pesar de que es de importación.Excelente artículo. Bien empacado.

Belle grandeur pour voyageurs de semaine

I love this suitcase! Ticks off all my ideal requirements:- International carry on size- TSA lock- Four wheels- Side handle- ExpandableHonestly what more could you ask for? The build quality is super sturdy and I love the glossy black finish. If you had to get just one suitcase, get this one!

A good suitcase for the price but advert says easyjet cabin bag approved, it is too high. More than 56 cm. Easyjet is 56 inc handle and wheel. So I left it at home. Had no time to exchange/return as I travel the following day. Beautiful case though.
