Overview

Corner-protected inline wheels and a telescopic locking handle roll this U.S. Traveler Rio upright, which you tilt and pull behind you. Inside, a fully lined main compartment holds mesh zip pockets and compression straps, and an expansion gusset opens for souvenirs.

Simple, light softside luggage for the whole family is the reason to buy. Multiple carry handles make it easy to lift into a bin or a car trunk. The limits are two wheels instead of spinners and no water resistance on this color.

Who it's for

Parents packing kids for a weekend away and casual travelers get a light bag with straps and mesh pockets. Business flyers who push their case upright through long terminals will prefer a spinner.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Light softside build
  • Expansion gusset for extra packing
  • Corner-protected wheels resist scuffs
  • Multiple carry handles
Cons
  • Only two wheels, tilt to roll
  • Not water resistant
  • Tips over if packed top-heavy
  • Warranty not listed

Performance notes

Two inline wheels mean the bag rolls tilted, so the weight rests partly on your hand. Packing heavier items at the bottom lowers the center of gravity, which the maker advises to prevent tipping. Dense polyester with a padded front resists scuffs but not soaking rain.
