> 3 dayI travel a fair amount and it was time to update my carry on bag. This is the first time Ive tried a hard side piece of luggage. So far, Ive been happy with it. Its definitely lighter weight than the bag Ive been using. Every little bit helps, especially if I have to check it in and have a weight limit.

> 3 dayWe needed a second large suitcase for an upcoming trip. We have one large suitcase, so I compared this Strenforce bag to one from Travelers Choice (TC). This suitcase looks good and is lighter than the comparable one from TC. The cross belt on one side is elastic which I like. The TC one does not stretch its just an adjustable buckle. The seaming on both suitcase seems comparable. The Strenforce bag has plastic bumpers that run down one side of the bag. The TC does not. That said everything else is just a half step down in quality. The quality of the hardware (ex. zipper pulls, handles, wheels, etc) is just a step behind the TC. The wheels on this unit work very well but they are thinner than those on the TC suitcase. The plastic shell feels a bit thinner and is definitely a bit less rigid. The places where the handles connect ... I believe the hinges on the Strenforce are plastic while they are metal on the TC suitcase (see pic). The zipper pulls are thinner and less substantial feeling (note, I dont think this will affect usage, just noting it). The TC bag has an expandable zipper system so you can eek out a little extra space in the bag if you packed full on the way and came home with a few extra souvenirs you need to squeeze into the bag. All of that said, the Strenforce suitcase is significantly less expensive (currently under 100 dollars) than the TC bag, so, for the price, I think this is a good value on a mid-level bag.

> 3 dayI love the fact that you can pack so much in each half of the case. One side has straps that clip together to keep things in place and the other side has a compartment that has a zippered cover which itself has a net storage section. It seems very sturdy, is definitely light and it rolls really smoothly (as much as I have tested it). I like the idea that you can lock the case but TSA can still open it for inspection. I will be traveling soon and although this case is small enough for carry on on major airlines, it will be going in the hold which will be a good test to see how it withstands being thrown around and I will update my review if necessary. Overall a nice suitcase at a reasonable price.

> 3 dayThis is my first new luggage in about 25 years. The zippers and wheels work great. Plus there is a telescopic handle on the top and two regular handles also…. One on the top and one on the side. All handles fit smoothly to the sides of luggage.

Greater than one weekSo bright and sturdy! TSA approved locks and great size and quality. I dont see this color a lot, which makes it easy to find your bag when they all come rolling out. Nothing fancy to go on about. This is a great little suitcase and will fit the bill for whatever youre needing it for. I highly recommend.

> 3 dayThis suitcase is made of lightweight ABS plastic and feels very sturdy and strong, yet very light. The wheels guided smoothly across the road and all 4 are the 360 spinner type so its easy to move around. The top and bottom handles feel fine with soft plastic on the inside, but not too flimsy. The TSA friendly combination locks are easy to use.

> 3 dayNice lightweight hard case carry on suitcase. Zipper is high quality, liner inside. Wheels move and swivel for easy rolling. Extension handle adjust to multiple lengths. Love the green color cannot miss your bag in the sea of black bags when traveling.

> 3 dayWhen this suitcase was delivered, i thought it was something else. The box was so light! I was surprised with its lack of weight (which is a big issue for me when traveling, especially now that lots of airlines have lowered their weight limits on checked luggage). Then after taking it out of the box i was shocked again, it glides like its floating. The wheels are so smooth and responsive. It feels like a plastic material so Im hoping it holds up better than a metal, hard sided piece. Love the added TSA approved lock and the ability to separate the inside with the added insert. Just like the tags says, I am excited. Lol, truly. Im packing it right now, couldnt wait to review as this is already my new favorite piece of luggage. Will update if it doesnt hold up during my trip but I expect itll do great.

> 3 dayThis bag is an odd in-between size. Its too big to carry on and almost too small as a checked bag. This is absolutely for the light traveler returning from a trip with what they brought. The wheels extend off the bag which is always risky when checking, but the spinners glide. The inside has a basic lining, a zip-around flap, and elastic to stretch across the other side. It does not expand. Four stars.

> 3 dayPros - lightweight; wheels spin and rotate so that the luggage easily moves along any type of flooring (including carpeting); handle locks into place on 3 levels; TSA approved lock is installed on the outer part of the luggage but not in an obtrusive way at all; zippers easily open and close and zipper handle has a curve in it making it very comfortable to hold.
