Beautiful and sturdy and functional! Very happy.
I really struggled to decide what I wanted in my new carryon! There are so many improvements nowadays. I was really tempted by the new wide handles, but I knew I needed to be able to strap on my puppy carrier and they aren't made for the wide handles yet. :( At least mine wasn't) So.... This one seemed to check off my other wants. Charge port with USB-C, cupholder (although I was skeptical about its durability), extra hooks for bags and stuff. But really what I was after was the trunk style!I had just returned from 10 days traveling to Ireland and Scotland (6 flights!) and was about to embark on 6 more flights stateside to visit kids. It was time to upgrade and this suitcase did not disappoint! My husband was rather annoyed that I didn't want to check my bag. Why have to "lug it around" he said. Well, there was no lugging with this! The wheels rolled so smoothly. My husband commented several times what a smooth 'ride' it was. And he kept taking from me! In fact, he wanted to hang HIS bag on it all the time. And I'm pretty sure he bought me the oversized water on purpose so he could use the cupholder for his coffee!After having to flop open my traditional suitcase on the floor to access anything, being able to simply set this carry on on the dresser and lift the "lid" was so nice! I was able to pack 7 days of clothes and two pairs of shoes, a jacket and my toiletry bag comfortably. No need for expansion! (Which they won't allow a carryon to be expanded anyway.) Even fully packed it wasn't so heavy I couldn't lift it one handed. And in 6 flights, mine was the only buttery yellow that I saw, you couldn't miss it.So you attach a portable battery pack in a small pocket inside the suitcase to use the external ports. Which is fine, just make sure it is fully charged. However, the very last flight (1 in 6!) demanded that I remove the battery at the gate when they were going to put it under the plane. Annoying. However! I was able to get right to it in under 60 seconds because it was so easy to lift the lid and get to it! And I didn't have to take up a bunch of floor space at the gate and expose my entire contents either.This carryon is a keeper. The wheels and handle feel sturdy and smooth. It's a pretty color: cheery but not obnoxious. I can spot it a mile away amongst the sea of suitcases. It was strong enough to support my husband's carry on while rolling. I still feel that the cupholder is the weakest thing on it, but it still functions smoothly, neatly and did it's job. I didn't have to hunt for or share a charging station at the airport. I am happy with this case and am considering getting the full size to check for bigger trips!Ver másVer menos
