Luggage??

I am in need of a medium (about 25") roller/spinner suitcase.  I travel by air a couple of times per year and by car more frequently.  I have a smaller and a larger bag.  They are Samsonite and have held up well for the past 10+ years.  

Any recommendations?  Bags you love?

Re: Luggage??

  • I bought a rolling suitcase at Costco (Kirkland brand) and it has served me well for a number of years. I bought it when I was traveling a ton and I use it a several times a year, and there has been no damage to it. It's not super lightweight, but I don't find it to be very heavy either.
  • I was in Florida last week and my duffle bag strap (~10 years old)busted, no way in HE** was I carrying that thing through the airport without it and couldn't find a replacement strap anywhere... I ended up at Walmart (since that's all there was near where I was at) to get something I could use in a pinch and found a 4-wheeled "iFly" brand bag that was built tough, reasonable, and most of all super light...  If I had the time to look, I'd probably opt to go with Samsonite like the rest of my luggage again, but one thing I discovered, once you go 4-wheels you never go back!  The only thing I question about the new bag is how durable over the long term the wheels will be, but for now it'll get the job done and I love the color... 
  • I bought this as a Black Friday deal in 2014, and it has held up very well on the 5 or so trips we've taken since. (Including the one where the airline sent it to Chicago instead of Copenhagen.) Price was pretty reasonable considering the spinner wheels and hard case.
