Overview
Weekend travelers and short-trip flyers get a Samsonite hardshell carry-on that holds a few days of outfits and rolls on suspension spinner wheels. Inside, a snap-in packing cube, a WetPak pouch for liquids, mesh pockets and compression straps divide the space.
A smooth, comfortable roll is the reason to buy: suspension wheels damp bumps and the handle locks at many close-spaced heights. The included packing cube and liquids pouch save extra purchases. The limits are a USB port that does nothing without a battery and an unlisted warranty.
Who it's for
Long weekend travelers, couples on city breaks and anyone sensitive to handle height get a carry-on that adjusts to them. People packing for longer than a long weekend will run short of space.
Pros and cons
- Suspension spinner wheels absorb bumps
- Handle adjusts in fine one-inch steps
- Snap-in packing cube included
- WetPak pouch for liquids
- External battery not included
- Warranty not listed
- Expansion pushes past stated size
- Sized for a short trip only
Performance notes
Aero Trac suspension in the dual wheels absorbs vibration, so the case tracks steadily over pavement. The handle locks at close-spaced heights, letting the case roll at an angle that suits your arm. The scratch-resistant coating hides marks, while the polycarbonate resists cracking on impact.
