Centric Hardside Expandable Luggage with Spinner Wheels, Blue Slate, Checked-Large 28-Inch

My favorite brand.

Zipper broke on the third trip

I originally purchased a rolling duffle/suitcase from Amazon. I received it for my vacation. It was a Gothomite. It seemed awesome, but within about 100 yards of using it, it tore at the bottom because it dragged along ground from sagging. Tore hole in it. Amazon was good and refunded my money. I then bought the Samsonite Centrix 28 hard case suitcase. It arrived looking great. I just opened today to begin packing for my trip. I realized as I began to pack it that on the top lid and bottom lid there is fabric with a zipper to open it, which accesses the walls of the lids. Both zippers were missing zipper handles, so it was hard to hold the little zipper to open. Once I opened the zipper I saw this piece of odd curved rubber with adhesive on it, just stuck randomly to the inside of the lid, on both the top and bottom lid. I investigated more to try and see where the rubber was supposed to be stuck to and realized that it is supposed to be covering where the roller wheels attach to the bottom of the suitcase, on the inside. I supplied photos of the piece detached and where the other one was still glued to one of the wheels. there are 4 wheels, 2 per lid, 2 on top lid and 2 on bottom lid. On each lid, one was attached and one was not. I tried to reapply it, but it just falls off. It seems like a nice suitcase, but this is 2 times within the last 2 months I received defective suitcases when ordered from Amazon. Not sure if it is there fault or the manufacturers fault. Amazon took care of the first suitcase, I hope they help with this suitcase. I travel in 2 days, so I do not have time to return it before traveling, I hope the defects do not cause me a problem while traveling this time. Nice looking suitcase though. Check out photos for a better visual.

Nice

Love the Samsonite hardsided luggage. The wheels move easily. The bag is easy to maneuver. It is lightweight and love the color. Also love that the lock is a built in combination lock!! But dont love that it doesnt fit as much as my other Samsonite Carryons. This one is smaller in dimensions.

Waited till I had my first trip...SOOOOO easy to maneuver, lightweight so easy to lift when necessary, no marks from baggage handlers...GREAT CHOICE!!!

Price

Used for short traveling of 5 days or less. I was looking for something small however, this will still not fit in an overhead compartment on almost all regional jets. Fortunately some airlines are adding closets now which thus will fit in without any issues. I like the hard shell and the maneuverability as well as it is easy to pull or push around too.

This is a very durable strong and lightweight luggage high quality and worth the price highly recommended

I was going to give this a 4.5 star review, but then on trip #3, the zipper broke, Luckily I was able to make it work in one direction but the second zipper going the opposite direction would no longer do anything.
