TUMIAerotour 4 Wheel Expandable Luggage - Men's and Women's Business and Leisure Travel Suitcase - 21.75" International Expandable Carry-On, Black

Great check in piece for long European trips. Hold everything I need and more.

I read the reviews on a lot of other wheeled suitcases before I decided that it was just too risky to get any of those. Way too many stories about broken wheels, split zippers, etc.This is the only bag which had consistently great reviews, and I had a Tumi for 20 years in the past so I decided to pay for the by far most expensive option. I knew if it lasted as well as previously, obviously it would cost less in the long run. I am so happy with this bag. It has worked beautifully for my first couple of trips and I do not anticipate having any problems in the future either.

Great lightweight, attractive and functional carry-on.

I really like this carry on. I didn't need the one with the lock since I plan to use it primarily as a carry on. It rolls easily and completes the look with my tumi brief backpack.

On the one hand, this is the nicest bag I have ever owned. And I have owned a LOT of bags - as a consultant I traveled hundreds of thousands of miles, and I travel internationally on a regular basis. The first thing that struck me about this suitcase is how maneuverable it is. My shoulders are not as flexible as they once were, and this one is kind and gentle to the joints. It glides like a dream. It is also beautiful and of incredibly durable materials - I am 100% impressed. It is definitely worthy of five stars.My one disappointment - and I wish I had checked this prior to ordering - is that it is too "fat" for Icelandair, which is one of the airlines I fly most frequently. British Airways tends to be the WORST with the gate police, and this bag does indeed meet the BA requirements - just barely. Unfortunately Icelandair's measurements for a carryon are 21.6x15.7x7.8 inches - and this bag is 1.2 inches too deep. I'm going to take it by our local airport anyway and try it in the sizer. The Icelandair staff are usually much friendlier than British Airways at least. If you plan to carry this on, definitely do NOT expand it - the gate police will get you! I wish luggage manufacturers would show pictures of their bags inside the sizers of the different airlines so we didn't have to drive to the airport and do it ourselves (I'll post a pic once I get to the airport).Please note, if you're a carryon only person, as I am, that this bag is quite heavy at 8.7 pounds. My bag before this only weighed four pounds - a 4.7 pound difference is a lot when you're hoisting it multiple times. It also eats into your weight allowance for the airline. Having said that, I think it will be worth it for the durability of this bag. The one I have that is lighter is a maneuverability nightmare.Would I order this again? Absolutely. Is it worth the cost? Yes. It does not save you money to buy a cheap suitcase (unless you only travel once!) If you're going to go on four or more trips per year, a suitcase of this quality is a good investment. Would I travel with it as my carryon on Icelandair? Maybe not. But for all other airlines - absolutely.

This was great for carry on. It fit perfect in the overhead. It manuevers well. Not to heavy

Tumi is definitely a luxury brand and part of what you are paying for is the brand name and status that comes with it. That isn't to say this isn't a great quality product, it absolutely is. The fit, finish, feel, and look of the materials is very premium and it has been well designed and performs like a quality carry-on bag should. The wheels are smooth and the telescopic handle feels well done.I usually feel when you get to a certain price point with a type of product that is sold at both Walmart and Neiman Marcus (think clothes, bags, jewlery, etc.) you leave off "you get what you pay for" at some point and move into paying for a brand above the ultimate actual quality of the product. Tumi, to me, is kind of right there... it's not so extravagent as to be adding an extra grand for status but is a little more than what it would take to duplicate this without the brand on it. That said, you are buying an established brand with the brick and mortar stores and customer service mechanism in place to take care of you, that all costs money.Bottom line, a really, really quality bag that looks and feels expensive. It should last a long time and if you want a little luxury in your travel without getting really crazy with cost then it's a great way to do it. Could you put your clothes in something for $100 that would get it there too? Sure, but if you want an established name brand that is known for quality and tells people you are successful this will certainly do it and at cost you less than a lot of R/T coach tickets do.
