TravelproMaxlite 5 Softside Expandable Upright 2 Wheel Carry on Luggage, Lightweight Suitcase, Men and Women, Black, Carry On 22-Inch

As a flight attendant, I didn’t think this luggage would last longer than a year. 4 years and 1200 flights later, it’s still in good shape, works well, and still looks good. The 2 wheel version has significantly more capacity than a 4 wheel of the same size. As a flight attendant, this luggage gets more abuse because I hang a lunch bag on a J hook from the handle. The lunch bag is heavy too - I carry protein drinks and a bottle of wine.

So after I read a bunch of cruddy reviews about this rollaboard, I was all freaked out and spent hours trying to find something better that wasn't like $800+ (and even those really weren't better). But everything else was a little too small, too cheaply made, too many more complaints than even here, too... well... Too too. So I sucked it up and bought this Travelpro bag and it still lives up to my last two bags (this one is a teeny TINY bit smaller). And some of the complaints like "the legs are flimsy and are attached with pressure pins (or something like that) rather than screws" are just plain ol' not true.Y'all make your own decisions, but this thing actually feels tougher than my second Travelpro that just recently had to be buried in the backyard, but only after 13 years of heavy service to the tune of at least 3/4 million miles on SW during that time. Time will tell, but I think Travelpro still has it. If it doesn't, I will update here. I am still traveling at least 15 to 20 trips a year with about half of them to Cen.Am. (how else can I keep companion pass?). My first Travelpro bag lasted 14 years (and well over a million miles of US and international travel) and my second lasted 13 years, so by some standards the quality has gone down, but not really folks. ¡Buen viaje!

Perfect

While it can be daunting picking any luggage with all of the options, if you’re looking for a solid, 2-wheel bag, seriously look no further. I’d recommend this to any of my friends!This bag has flown with me for a year and a half, seriously proven to be durable and reliable.KEY NOTES:GREAT ZIPPER/ ZIPPER STRENGTHEASY TO MANEUVER THROUGH BUSY AIRPORTS.STURDY WHEELS.A HANDLE THAT DOESN’T QUIT.CLEAN, PROFESSIONAL APPEARANCE.It’s been pulled through gravel, on sidewalks, airports, up stairs, in and out of shuttles, in and out of bins of all sizes on all our aircraft types. It hasn’t let me down in any way, and I still use it to this day.I can easily pack everything I need for six days, including full bags for makeup, hygiene products, and an extra pair of shoes. The zipper has been used aggressively when I needed to STUFF the bag to capacity, and I’ve had zero worry of the zipper popping apart or breaking in any way.The handle has a little wiggle, but it does NOT quit! I have had a tote bag, AND full lunch box attached to the bag, (so it was very heavy) and pulled it through gravel and up cement stairs by the handle for months while living in base and never had any issues! It’s easy to pull up and stow back.I must give credit where credit is due. This bag has not let me down. LOVE IT

This product was not what I anticipated. I have another 22 inch carry on that I have had for over 25 years. It's basically indestructible but heavy at 12.5 pounds. The TravelPro holds less than my old Samsonite but as it turns out not by much. It looks smaller by a lot but mainly because it is much lighter at 5.4 pounds. It sure is not built as sturdily as my old one and I would hesitate to check it because of the abuse baggage handlers can subject to it. But as a true carry on coupled with a 16 inch under seat rollaboard that I bought with it, I have plenty of space for a two week trip overseas. I considered returning it but decided to keep it. And actually the price is very attractive. Other more expensive TravelPro luggage like the crew line look more durable but are heavier and more expensive. I think you get what you pay for.

Originally I ordered another brand that was much cheaper (less than half the cost). The telescopic handle was DOA and the overall flimsiness of the case was obvious that you get what you pay for. Returned and ordered this case instead. Ordered a returned but still ‘like new’ from Amazon and saved a few dollars for the case was exactly like new. Much more robust than the cheaper case and about 2 inches more internal room internally. My wife’s soft sided bag had a pocket that slide right over the handle so I toted her luggage as well. Fit a 737-800 overhead bin just fine. Used it for a 7 day trip. Packed 2 pairs of jeans, 3 shorts, bathing suit and 7 shirts and still had some room. Socks and whitey tightys all went in my backpack with chargers and iPad and stuff. Happy so far.

To replace wheels for this bag the 70mm x 19mm wheels fit perfect.Nice light bag , of course not as sturdy as the travel pro series for flight crew.
