ABS Lightweight Suitcase with 8 Wheels TSA Lock,Silver,Checked-Large 28-Inch

I recently ordered the dark blue, 28 lightweight suitcase. I havent purchased luggage since the mid 90s and I have wanted a hardcase luggage for a while. I love that the wheels make the luggage easy to maneuver in the tightest spots. I was surprised that the size was smaller than my medium suitcase from the 90s. Theres no way I could fit 7-9 days worth of clothes in this. The interior is nice but doesnt really seem like much room for actual clothes. What I thought was a hard-shell, rigid exterior is actually very flexible. Granted the exterior isnt just fabric but its not going to do well on the bottom of a large stack. The handle only extended twice and at 5ft 8in, its just barely tall enough to keep me from having to slouch to one side. I dont travel by air, so I cant review TSA claims. Its nice, but Ill keep using my old luggage set.

We 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.

This is a nice, roomy, and tough hard side case for trade. Its easy to maneuver in tight places and just the right size for a two or three day excursion. I got the more colorful case to be easier to find coming off the luggage conveyer. Overall, satisfied with the case.

This is a lightweight but strong suitcase. Airline employees may be able to break anything, but for its light weight it is quite sturdy.

Nice suitcase for air travel and is of about the same quality as the cheap ones I found at the market in Italy although this one was about twice the price of the ones I found there. It has a zippered compartment in the inside top if you want to separate your clothing and to utilize to whole space or you can leave it undone to allow space for larger, bulkier items. The divider also has a zippered pocket for flat items. The extendable handle is a good length and works smoothly. The wheels work well on smooth surfaces, but one of the pieces I purchased before has the same type of wheel and we found that the double wheel set up on each corner has a tendency to catch in crevices and wholes. As single, thicker wheel on each corner would work better. This suitcase is not expandable nor do the wheels lock.

I love the bright color, perfect for summer travel

Works pretty great so far I just passed for a trip .

Ill start with the boring things. This luggage is really well made. Its so sturdy, the zippers are sturdy, it fits a ton of stuff. The wheels are silky smooth and turn easily. Now to the fun part. This luggage is so gorgeous! Youll be the talk of the airport with this bag. Plus if you get colors, its easier to spot from a distance. I highly recommend this.

So far, I think I will like this carry on. I only got the one piece, not the full set. For now, Im leaving it open to air out. There is an funky smell inside, probably from all the plastics and glue. I think it will dissipate if left open for a while. If not in a couple of weeks, Ill update review. Wont be traveling with it until that odor is gone, or my clothes will likely smell the same, which means I get to carry that smell around with me.

This is a nice, semi-hardcover suitcase- rolls nice, tsa approved lock, roomy.
