Title: Incredibly lightweight!!
Review: Move over Samsonite! Travelpro is now the champion of lightweight and quality luggage! Since the 1970’s, we’ve always opted for Samsonite for their quality and durability. However, my old large sized Samsonite which is still in excellent condition, has become way too heavy for me. Did my research, found this Travelpro and so glad I did! I bought the medium one which is plenty roomy for extended trips (I’ll use my small Samsonite for short overnight trips). I can literally lift my new Travelpro with one finger! It’s that light! The wheels roll and swivel easily and the handles are padded for comfort. It has your standard zipper pockets on the inside and out and the zippers appear high quality and glide smoothly.Don’t waste your money on any others if you want the most lightweight suitcase that looks nice and is high quality. You can’t beat the price either. Lightweight Samsonites cost over $400!!! Who would pay that much for luggage!Can’t wait to take my next trip with my new Travelpro!!

Title: Great carry on!
Review: So far so good — I got this for a 4 day business trip to replace my very old carry-on and I am quite happy. It’s lightweight, fits easily in the overhead compartment, and I was worried it would be smaller than I expected but it actually felt very spacious and usable for my needs, even though I think my former carryon was slightly larger. The wheels are smooth and it’s so easy to navigate the airport and plane with this.

Title: Love the spin on this lightweight carryon!
Review: Talk about a spinner! The wheels on this suitcase are incredible and are so nimble when carting it around the airport, to hotels, or through city streets! I typically struggle lifting my bag into the overhead bins on a plane, but with the weight of this suitcase, I can do so with ease! I’ve found that I prefer a soft-sided suitcase and love how durable this fabric is. I do know that the green color may stain over time, but love how stylish it looks for now, and that it stands out amongst the sea of black and charcoal gray. If you’re not used to an international sized suitcase, you may struggle with space in this one! Though I researched extensively to find a spinner that met 22x14x9” dimensions, the interior does feel smaller than other bags I’ve had. Overall, I look forward to using this spinner as my carryon for years to come!

Title: Not really expandable
Review: The size of the TravelPro Maxlite 5 Compact Carry-on 20” is exactly as stated. (I measured it). Which means that it’s very small for a 5 day trip. This carry on meets the size limits of Hawaiian Airlines.I didn’t check it in, so I can’t comment on it’s durability at being thrown around. All I did was put it in the car, wheel it to the gate, put it in the overhead bin, wheel it to my hotel room, and vice versa. It survived.This is my 1st spinner bag. I had a 2-wheeler which always tipped over, so I wanted 4 wheels to prevent tipping. I expected this not to tip at all, but it did tip over once at the airport. Of course right in front of TSA check point. So, it’s not 100% tip-proof.Pros:-very lightweight-rolls easily on flat surfaces-doesn’t tip most of the time-seems durable enough (strong zippers zipped, powerscope handle went up and down, carry handles seem strong, softside is strong material which didn’t rip, wheels didn’t break, hold straps worked inside)Cons:-I aired it out for a whole week in the garage and backyard. Still has strong odor.-rollers got caught on some cracked/stone walkways-the expandable feature is a joke. It’s only about 1.5”x8.5” expanding. Maybe 1 pair of W sized 12 jeans. The reason is that only a portion of the bottom expands; the top 1/2 of the suitcase tapers to “non-expanding”. This case does not deserve ‘expandable’ in the description.-when you open the suitcase on a rack, the lid does not stay straight open. Because the bag tapers, the lid is at an odd angle and it falls over. I didn’t like this at all. It seems that after a lot of traveling you are putting stress on the lid hinge and it won’t last long. Plus, it kept falling over and doesn’t stay open.-the front pocket is almost useless. I couldn’t fit my paperback book in it.Overall, the case is ok. It’s not perfect, and I think it’s overpriced. I was disappointed in the so-called expandable feature and i don’t like that the lid doesn’t stay straight open. But it should serve it’s purpose and hopefully it lasts for a long time.

Review: It’s a great carry-on luggage that will last a long time.Pros:-It’s very light-Inside compartments makes organizing easier-On the smaller side of carry-on so it will never fail the carry-on size test-Looks very nice and can be used for business and vacation travels-Got beat up a few times – saw airport baggage workers throwing stuff around for transport lol. It still looks brand newCons:-The wheels, while work well enough, feel somewhat cheap??-If you travel more than 4 days at a time, the size 20 isn’t for you – it will not have enough space for your stuff

Review: Muy buena maleta, materiales resistentes, muy ligera, con buen espacio interior, la agarradera sale muy suave, y las llantas muy suaves también al llevarla rodando, además la encontramos más barata en el color rosa, y por el color rosa no somos menos hombres jaja

Review: Bought this for my wife to replace an older, smaller, low quality suitcase. In my opinion this size is extreme overkill, but she loves it! So much room to pack all those clothes you “think” you might need on vacation, but never wear.High quality, very nice handles, wheels and zippers. Full expect this to hold up very well over the years.

Review: Like that it’s light and the wheel swivels very smoothly. Price point is steep and does not contain a build in lock for safety

Review: This bag is worth every penny. Well built, maneuvers extremely well, and holds a lot.I love the front zippered areas where you can store an iPad or laptop separately. Extendable which is always a good thing.The only thing I am not crazy about is when opened it sits slightly askew because the top of the bag is tampered. Not a big deal just a small annoyance but other than that this bag is exceptionally well made.
