When I bought this suitcase, I was really happy with the look. Within two trips the corners were cracked and within five trips one of the wheels no longer works. This may be fine for someone who travels once a year but not worth it if you travel many times a year.

Excellent condition. Light weight suitcase that is perfect for my need .

After using this suitcase 2x in 2 months, the latches stopped working and the suitcase kept opening *even while locked.* The Amazon return window is closed and I am stuck with an expensive yet broken item. Although the suitcase looks like metal, it is actually very cheap plastic painted with very cheap paint that is easily scratched. Two months after buying this, and I already need to buy a replacement. Keep looking. COOLIFE products are nothing more than overpriced junk. Youd find better quality at a swap meet.

It was pretty much everything I was asking for.

Looked and felt great. Seemed very strong especially with reinforced corners. However it did crack on one corner my second time using it. I gave it 4 stars still because it has held together well and with the way airport staff handles luggage I cant say it is the bags fault. Hard luggage of this material will break eventually and i believe the airport handled my luggage very poorly. The suitcase did NOT fall apart, it cracked and stayed together. Lock works great and aluminum frame is awesome and very secure.

While waiting for a flight from Hawaii I watched baggage handlers drag and toss suitcases. It was brutal! Then I got a deal on a returned 28” model. I decided to throw it around, sit on the case while rolling it around. It is durable. The wheels, generally the weakest part of a suitcase hold up. Easy to maneuver. Worth the money.

The aluminum frame and latches remind me of and old briefcase locking mechanism. The hinges seem to be sturdy and operated smoothly without binding up. I will gladly give up zipper close cases that expand for the stability of the aluminum frame. I have only used the case on one domestic flight but I have two weeks of international travel coming up. I plan to update the durability after I return. If this travels 15K miles and six segments and survives, I plan to purchase the remaining pieces in the set.

The suitecase was good until i took my second trip and the wheels feel off.

The suitcase was delivered quickly and arrived in good condition. After examination of the suitcase, everything looks great. The wheels roll very smoothly and the hinges Cindy be very strong and sturdy. I will update my review after my first trip with hopes that it survives without any damage.

Used for 1 trip. Plastic or whatever its made out of cracked. Will revise this review after my warranty (3 yr mfgs warr) is addressed.
