Barely out the box, this luggage set began to unravel - literally. The fabric grab handle came apart after one single use on two of the largest bags. The small over night bad with pull handle has started to pull arThis was not due to baggage handling but poor manufacturing. i chose this bag because of it attractive fabric and spinner wheels, but great looks mean nothing if its going to tear apart with little use. I am very disappointed. Given my hectic travel schedule dealing with returning the bags to American Flyer is way more trouble then its worth. My suggestion - pick another set of luggage!
The luggage came quickly. Because I was not traveling for several weeks I left it, in shipping box, in a storeroom. A few days before packing, I removed from shipping box and removed plastic. The chemical odor (dye, material? who knows) was almost overwhelming. It took several days to dissipate. The size was smaller than older luggage of same sizing; I was not impressed with quality, but shrugged off because of price. Noticed some fading of color on the top of the two large cases, like they had been sun faded. Another shrug - figured I was buying seconds. Packed the 29" and 26" (both under airline weight limits) and rolled down ramp to car. The side handle on the 26" broke when lifting it into car. Airlines wait for no one, so off I go. Traveling alone, with two large bags and a rolling computer bag I hooked on the 26" handle, I found the cases rolled poorly, veered off course, lost balance easily and were just difficult to control. - not user friendly at all. I am a female, travel for business on my own, and believe that if you pack it, you tote it. I do not recommend this luggage if you need reliability and ease of handling.
I bought this luggage over a year ago. Have since taken 2 cruises and have flown at least 2 times with this luggage as well as a couple of road trips. I absolutely love this luggage. It rolls along very well when trying to get through the airport or the cruise terminal. I love this luggage and am very happy I bought it.
I am extremely pleased with the selection. I wanted a luggage set that could be easily distinguished at the airport and this set certainly meets the requirements.
Very nice luggage set, and I purchased primarily for the pattern, HOWEVER, I'm not a fan of "spinner" wheels, so I am going to sell them.
This set of luggage was great. It arrived promptly from overstock and I used it right away for a weekend getaway. All the pieces came back from the flights looking just like new still. They were easily spotted at the baggage claim and I got many compliments on them. I've never had spinner luggage, so wheeling these through the airport and hotel was a breeze. They are plenty roomy and sturdy. My only drawback was that the straps to hold everything down didn't reach as far as I'd like, but I also had it expanded and packed full.
I love this luggage thus far. It is classy and very unique! It seems roomy and just the right combination of pieces to accommodate any length trip I need to take. I am looking forward to a business trip in February and lots of travel this spring and summer. It had no defects, nor any problems with the fabric.
This is my second set a friend saw mine that I ordered in june 2012 and I ordered one for her for christmas received item Dec 2012 and the fabric was different same look, red was very red and the gold was very shiny, in fact made it look cheap. Not sure if she is going to like it but at least the elephants are on it and it was red that is what she liked being a Delta. I would think that if the fabric is changing the item number should change or at least the description. But that's just me.
I ordered this luggage set because I had some big trips planned, Macipeccu, Isreal, and Holland. They not only worked beautifully, they held up to all the baggage handlers could give them. They have little gold elephants on them which make them unique and I am the only person on most flights to have luggage like this. I love it. They have plenty of room for all my stuff, shoes, cosmetics, clothes, hair dryer and electronic equipment such as I-pad and plug in equipment you now need when you travel. I would recommend this to any one.
Have not yet used the luggage but it is exactly as pictured. Since I already owned 2 pieces of the Budapest, i was pleased to find the set in the same pattern. As always Overstock shipping time was excellent.
