Traveler's Choice Rome 28 Inch 'Spinner' Hardside Upright

I travel for a living and was constantly buying a new bag every 3-4 months. I got the idea for a hardside by watching another traveler pull one of the luggage carousel. Because I was used to buying a new bag quarterly, I was hesitant to spend more than $100.00 on a hardside so this was a good "trial run" for a hardside. So far I have taken it with me on five trips and it is holding up great. It does not show "handling wear" that you see after regular loading. The wheels work great and make it real easy to move through airports, hotel parking lots, etc.... I am able to put my laptop case on top of the unit and walk with it beside me, which is much easier on the back (and Feet) than dragging it behind me. I am over 6' tall and the handle is long enough for me. That has been an issue in the past. When I first unpacked the case from the box and opened it I was a little alarmed on how small the inside appeared. I was pleased though how much it holds. I am able to pack 3-5 days of clothes comfortably. One side has an enclosed zipper compartment so I am able to neatly fold dress pants and shirts and they are held securely. So far I am very pleased with this suitcase and it is holding up better than any case I have previously purchased. This unit has convinced me that hardside cases are the way to go if you are a frequent, casual , or occasional traveler. The only thing I might have changed on this unit would be an integrated tag holder and perhaps a more durable zipper, although the zipper still works great, I think down the road it might be the first thing to be a problem.

The worst piece of luggage I've ever owned. I travel constantly for work and was completely diappointed in this product, what junk! It cracked in several places after my second trip and is now completely useless. When I complained to Overstock.com I was told to take my complaint to the manufacturer Traveler's Choice. They have no phone number and the return/replace policy is like jumping through hoops what a horrible experience. In the end I gave up (like I'm sure they wanted) and threw the luggage in the trash. I will NEVER buy from Traveler's Choice again I can't believe the lack of customer service, I should have expected it after using thier product. Save yourself time money and headache and spend a littler more and buy a quality product.

The iMac made the trip and so did the suitcase in good condition. I surrounded part of the screen with part of the styrofoam given in the original iMac case then surrounded it with heavy clothes and some bubble wrap. I got this for this hardshell on purpose but was able to take a ton of clothes with it too. Good product so far and even rolled easily. It suffered no damage from the airline.

The bag arrived in a few days as stated. It looked great and was very lightweight. I was worried it might not hold up to airport abuse, but after my trip to Costa Rica, the bag made it home looking great. Protected my things well too. Loved how it rolled and I didn't have to drag it behind me. I'll be ordering the smaller back for short trips now!
