    Looks great but I haven’t traveled with it yet. I like the design where it has a hanger at the top and bottom of the garment compartment

    Love it - only thing is - we wish it would have swivel wheels to roll while standing up!

    I am very disappointed because I was expecting carry on bag. When it arrived it was check in big bag. I don’t think this will allow to carry with me. Miss information given in the website.

    I definitely didn’t look at the picture close enough. Finding a full size garment bag is not easy these days. The bag arrived in a timely manner but when I took it out of the box, accidentally dropped it on my foot. It was unusually heavy and one of the “feet” on the bottom hurt my foot. Then I noticed it only had two wheels. I returned it immediately. Otherwise, it would have been a Greta bag for my purposes.

    I bought this for my husband. We haven’t been able to find one that looked sturdy and had a tsa lock. This one looks to be a great find. We have not travel yet so don’t know how will up. I think it will do well.

    I had a TravelPro suitcase for years. I loved the brand. Even. After purchasing another TP suitcase, where the handle broke, I went ahead and purchased this garment bag. The zipper was tough to open and close, and on the first plane use with this bag, the zipper broke completely. I had to use a strap to get the bag home. I can no longer recommend TravelPro luggage as the quality has become subpar.

    This is a top notch folding bag that has great features and seems quite durable. I have an old Skyway bag and this is better in a number of ways. The folding form is great for holding a couple of suits and a weeks worth of dress shirts. The hanger grip is a gator-tooth design that easily latches down on metal hangers once youre done loading the suitcase. All internal pockets are either made of a clear, soft (but durable) plastic or are an open-mesh design. You can always see into each pocket and dont have to guess where your belt is versus your dress socks. I suppose the plastic will be the part that somehow fails in 10 years since it will somehow age/crack. But when its brand new, its great! The exterior appears to be very durable. The handle has a soft, grippy feel which is great when youre lugging this around. The extending arm has multiple stop-clicks so you can have it long enough for a child or for a 6+ foot adult (no stooping!!!). Even though the extending arm trigger is on the top, it is inset into the handle so you can push the suitcase and dont have to worry about retracting the arm. That is a heck of an improvement over my skyway which can only be pulled because you depress the button when you try to push it in front of you and the arm retracts. The zippers are great in a couple of ways. First, the actual zipper pulls are big and appear to be quite heavy duty. In my experience, zipper pulls are the first thing to fail on a piece of luggage as it gets abused through an airport system. So you want those to be strong. Next, the zipper teeth are large/oversized. This means they unzip/zip very easily AND they are going to be really tough to destroy. The rubberized wheels are nice because they dont skip around from side to side. Theyre all the way to the edges which helps avoid any imbalance where the suitcase starts to rock from side to side. The wheels do not retract but there are feet on the bottom of the suitcase so you can set it up right and it stays in place. There is a hard plastic skid that makes going up stairs a breeze- just drag it behind you and the skid takes all the abuse. This suitcase features a built-in TSA-approved combo-lock. You can easily set the code to any 3-digit value of your choosing. It works by seizing onto the two zipper pulls and holding them in place so that the suitcase cant be opened. What would I change? The grip handle on the underside of the suitcase doesnt have finger slots big enough for the hands of a large man such as myself. It needs an extra quarter of an inch. I can squeeze my fingers in but they dont just slide in easily like they should. Maybe this will loosen up over time. Id probably buy this in another color (if its even sold that way) just because black suitcases are so hard to differentiate on the pick-up belt at the airport. My Skyway is maroon and that is still tasteful for business travel but much easier to spot when it comes down the chute. The suitcase is about an inch thicker than I expected. It is probably 2 inches thicker than my Skyway folding case. Still, it should be fine at the airport.

    First and foremost, this thing is HUGE. Take however large youre imagining it to be, and go larger. I decided to try it out at a conference where I was speaking and attending meetings over a full week. I needed multiple suits, plenty of shirts, leisure clothes, and exercise clothes (including shoes). The bag held everything I needed, and had room to spare. In addition, everything arrived looking like it had just come from the dry cleaners. The downside? The bag was so heavy that I almost had to pay a surcharge. This wasnt the bags fault. Its as light as one could hope for. The problem is that it comfortably holds so much stuff that you wont realize youve packed fifty pounds worth of stuff into it - until you try to lift it off the bed. Everything about the bag shows Travelpros customary commitment to quality, durability, and practicality. Those who wear dresses and gowns might miss the fold-out panel typical in garment bags. This has been replaced with a second clasp for additional hanging clothes. The bag is deep enough that you can easily double longer garments back on themselves, but - if you typically travel only with longer garments - you may want to consider one of Travelpros other options (all of which are excellent, in my experience). The weight and size of the bag makes it a little tricky to navigate, but the wheels held up well, and the handle seemed more than strong enough for the burden I placed on it. My only gripe was with the integrated combination lock, which I found to be worthless. Beyond that, if you want a massive, extremely durable, well-organized bag for carrying a couple weeks worth of formal clothing, you cant go wrong with the Travelpro 50.
