Greater than one weekThis is a nice size, looks as good as my higher end luggage, and is lightweight. Holds more than you would think if you use compression and I like the extra compartment and the TSA lock. I was able to change the combination for the lock with the included instructions. The zipper has metal teeth and glides smoothly even if the suitcase is overloaded. A minor thing I did not care for is that the curved zippers needed to use in the TSA lock dont work as well if the angle is off and you have to think more than you should about how to hold the zipper. The handle is comfortable and locks into and out of positions well but there is a little more wiggle room in the handle than I would like - does not affect function so far but feels like it may worsen over time. This is just my opinion as I do not see anything that wasnt put together well or screws I can tighten there. The wheels roll smoothly in the spinner position but they are not good at all if you try to use on 2 wheels as they are very light and do not have weights that tip them into alignment like the high-end spinners have. This gets better but does not resolve as you put more weight in the suitcase. The wheels also do not roll well in situations where there is a large gap or step-up for the same situation - the wheels are also the only part of this case that looks cheap. I would say this is a decent carry-on for the occasional traveler and better than what you get for a similar price at big box stores. If you dealing with a lot of uneven surfaces, cannot lift the case briefly over gaps and curbs, or are a road warrior who needs long-term wheel durability, I would spend a little more.

> 3 dayI got this to have a non-cloth suitcase for travel, and after inspecting I think it will work OK for domestic travel, but dont think it would withstand much international travel. The case is molded from a sturdy ABS, so it flexes and gives some like rubber, it is not rigid like some hard plastic shell cases, and this helps reduce its weight. The main zipper is a standard cloth zipper and offers decent security but could be easily opened with a pointed object. The TSA compliant pulley lock for the zipper is nice and should help it last longer than the standard ring opening most provide for a padlock to go through. The cart handle telescopes to a good height and feels fairly sturdy. The side and top handles are also sturdy and should easily support the case when fully loaded without any issues. The interior offers two main compartments, one with the standard elastic restraints for keeping clothes secure; the other has a zipper flap, which is a nice instead of just being hooks like most, so that smaller clothing and items can be secured. The only pouches are on the slipper flap, it would be nice to have a couple more in the compartments, but this is pretty standard for luggage this size. The 4 casters are the standard dual wheel design, and are plastic. Overall it is decent luggage for the cost and size and should work for domestic air travel or if taking a trip by car etc. i will get my use from it and update my review if anything noteworthy occurs.

> 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. We often travel to places where it rains and I am SO glad to have a hard sided carry on suitcase. There are times when you and your luggage end up at a small airport or at a gate that is out on the tarmac. No more worries about all my clothes being soaked with rain water while my luggage sits out before I can get to it. Another nice thing is the TSA lock. Yes! It was easy to do and works perfectly. And finally, I can take this bag to the gate and then check it for free if they are looking for volunteers. Couldn’t do that with my old duffle bag type luggage. I am looking forward to our next trip! I can usually get all my stuff in one carry on if I use packing cubes. Bon Voyage!

Greater than one weekStrenforce Hard Shell Suitcase with Safe TSA Lock and 4 double wheels and it’s durable and lightweight and the wheels roll smoothly and I like the hard shell design. I like the color of my suitcase and I can still put plenty in there even though it’s a medium size suitcase and I love that I can lock it with the TSA lock box which is very important to me.

Greater than one weekGreat quality carry on or to go small suitcase. I especially like that you can use them closed or open each half as it has a zipper like its a pocket, as well as the quality of the outside. The wheels can lock as well as can the zipper. Perfect size for a weekend or taking on the plane.

> 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. The minor negative on this suitcase is the interior liner materials which are nylon which gives out a very strong odor. I would advise to open up the suitcase to air it for couple of days to air out the smell before use.

> 3 dayThis suitcase is a perfect size for a carry-on for the plane. It is very good sized and will hold more than you think! The bright green color is hard to miss in a baggage carousel. The case seems pretty solidly built and has a TSA lock built in to it. The shell has some give to it, but I dont think

> 3 dayMy old luggage was starting to show its age. Over a decade and two transatlantic moves, along with numerous vacations, work trips, and house moves it has been through a lot. So I decided to order some new luggage for this summers adventures. The Strenforce ABS Hardside Lightweight Suitcase fit the bill so I ordered it up. This really is lightweight luggage. It is much lighter than my old luggage, and even lighter than my hard-shell carry-on. The ABS construction keeps it light, has a small amount of flex, but feels rugged enough to take the bumps and bashes of international air travel. The wheels are exposed but feel securely anchored to the base of the bag and didnt have the rattle and play that has put me off hard-sided luggage in the past. The handles feel comfortable, with a rubbery inner edge that doesnt dig into fingers. The pull handle extends in the usual three stop fashion, but the mechanism is internal which looks much better than the visible holes and pins on my old bag. Inside, things are minimalist, a simple elastic strap retains clothes (or in this case my little girls volley ball and kick ball) in the body of the bag, and a zipped liner featuring a single pocket separates the top half of the case. There is no separate retention strap in the top half. Everything is very simple and spacious, although the handle rails stick up from the bottom of the bag as in common with all bags of this type. Outside there are wheels, a sidde grab handle, and a top pull handle, and a TSA lock that integrates with the zippers. Nothing radical or exciting, but the construction and finish looks and feels good. It works without fuss and that is what I need luggage to do. An easy 5 out of 5 for being lightweight and well made. I expect itll be with me at least as long as the last luggage!
