Birmingham Ballistic Nylon Expandable Rollaboard Luggage, Red, Carry-on 21-Inch

This bag replaced the identical bag I purchased 10 months ago (and loved) due to airline damage to the original bag. This bag is not as well made. The front pockets are a totally different arrangement than pictured, and the orange trim is not on the top front as shown, which helped distinguish the bag at baggage claim. Also, the expansion zipper only goes halfway around the bag (unlike the previous bag), leaving part of the expansion portion sticking up. I still like the bag, but am disappointed in the design change and to receive a different bag than pictured.

Love, love, love....

I like this bag a lot. I already used it on one trip and I am about to use it on another. Seems robust and well constructed. If I had one complaint and its a minor one, I wish the exterior pockets had a better design (the bottom front pocket is awkward and not of much use)

love this suitcase. makes packing easy. different departments helps with organizing.

I purchased 2 and both of them are terrible. The zippers split open.

More durable than expected. Checked the bag and it made it for Atlanta to NJ and back again with no issues. Great bag, love the company. Top quality.

Beautiful and well built!

This is a fantastic carry-on for the price point. Ive owned others of similar price and quality such as the Revo Spin 2. This has well thought-out features and build. Tough nylon, nice zippers. The feet are slightly elongated to make the bag lean at a slight angle. This allows you to use the expansion and stuff your bag full without it tipping over.The handle has a little play to it, but again, this seems to be par for this price point. As long as you dont yank, twist, or lift violently, it will be fine. If you are only going to bring this on board a plane and stow it overhead then you this will work perfectly. Checking this luggage (which I dont plan on doing) could subject it to damage that it might not be able to withstand. The handle might take a beating, even in the collapsed position, that it couldnt survive. The wheels are somewhere between soft rubber and hard plastic. They roll smooth and arent too noisy. Definitely better than many spinner wheels which are hard plastic and loud. They could have done a little better with these. But they are stable and wont break off.

I traveled to London and this worked perfectly as a carry-on item; I had zero issues with stowing it in the overhead bin. I did not love the interior pocket setting, however.

It is sturdy and already worked well on its first trip.
