Rockland Melbourne Hardside Expandable Spinner Wheel Luggage, Carry-On 20", Black

[GREAT Product! Excellent ABS Luggage Set for Below $150]

[Pros] Durable, very lightweight, distinctive colors for airline travel, sized very well for airline travel* (smallest bag meets carry-on requirements, see below), ergonomic and versatile movement/storage. [Cons] (Minor) Very strong smell when opened! **Not heavy, thick, "rigid" plastic, if that's what you're looking for! It's hard to tell online, but this luggage set isn't that style. Before talking about the benefits of this set, just a warning: Don't open the packaging inside! These things smell like burnt tires when you cut the plastic open -- that said, this is a very minor issue. The smell is purely from the ABS plastic and only on the outside. Leave them on a covered patio for a day, give them a little wipe down with a soapy rag, and you're good. Now on to the good stuff! ~ Durability: These guys are tough! You can tell the quality just by pulling them out of the packaging. I've used them for two business trips so far, and we all know how luggage gets thrown around, and these still look good. -- That said, read what I said above: **These are indeed made of tough ABS plastic, but it is thin, flexible plastic. So the overall shape holds true for being thrown around (far better than cloth), but you can push it with your hand and it'll indent and pop back out. If something fragile is inside, it'd still need to be heavily padded. ~ Sizes: As noted above, the luggage sizes are great for air travel. *The smallest case fits under the Delta standard of 22" x 14" x 9" IF not overstuffed -- Verified with a tape measure it's well within the 22 and 14, but it's right at 9 on the depth so a stuffed bag might not make the squeeze. As for the other cases, the medium one is nice and... medium. And the large is nice and... large. Bluntly, most men should be able to adequately pack about 2 weeks of clothes in the medium, and ladies 2 weeks in the large. I don't know what the large one stuffed-to-the-gills would be like as far as weight requirements go with the airlines, I haven't needed to pack for that long of a trip. ~ Ergonomics: It can be seen easily in the picture, but to verify; There are telescoping handles on each piece. There is also a carry handle on the top and on one side, to be carried vertically or horizontally. When not in use, these can be pushed down flush with the case. There are 4 caster wheels on the bottom that roll in all directions, and they work well. Opposite of the side handle, there are rubber pieces so that the case can se set down horizontally as well. -- For storage, the small fits into the medium and the medium into the large (that's how it's shipped as well). ~ Internal: This aspect doesn't matter to me so much, because it's easy to use grocery bags to separate things. But for some it might: The top section has a flap with a zipper that goes all the way around, so that the top section can be completely separated from the bottom internally. There's also a pouch with a zipper attached to one of the horizontal sides. The internal material is standard thin, silk-like cloth os it's not a waterproof storage container. Pretty standard. ~ Aesthetics: If looks matter to you concerning luggage, this is a very handsome set. I just liked all of the color options, as I'm tired of looking for black luggage on a carousel. I got the orange set -- It's pumpkin orange plastic shell, flat black plastic trim, light gray patterned interior. [Conclusion] I am very pleased. There are probably better 3-Piece sets out there, but at holiday 2014 I got these for $133. That's the price of cheap luggage, but at a much higher quality. I'm not a heavy traveller, but for someone who travels occasionally with business these are great and I expect they'd even work well for a heavy traveller.

Great value luggage set — lightweight, smooth rolling, and easy to use

Picked this up for travel with the family, and it’s been a really solid set for the price. If you’re looking for something functional without overspending, this does the job well. Mobility (big plus): The spinner wheels are smooth and make a big difference moving through airports. Rolls easily in any direction, even when fully packed, which takes a lot of stress out of traveling. Weight & handling: Lightweight but still feels sturdy enough for normal travel. Easy to lift in and out of the car or overhead bins without feeling bulky. Storage & layout: Good amount of space inside, and the compartments help keep things organized. The expandable feature is nice if you need a little extra room on the way back. Durability: The hard shell holds up well for typical travel use. It’s not heavy-duty premium luggage, but it handles normal trips without issues. What I like from a practical standpoint: • Easy to maneuver through airports and hotels • Lightweight and user-friendly • Good value for a luggage set Handle & zippers: The telescoping handle works smoothly, and the zippers feel solid without catching. Minor downside: The shell can show scuffs after use, especially with airline handling — pretty typical for this type of luggage. 2-month update: Used on a couple trips so far, and everything is still working well. Wheels roll smooth, and no issues with handles or zippers. Bottom line: If you want a reliable, budget-friendly luggage set that’s easy to travel with, this is a great option. Not luxury, but very practical and gets the job done.

the handle and the wheels could be a bit more studier

Looks nice and sturdy will test flight it on June 1 see how it will be hoping the brand Rockland is a quality product !! The handle at first was stuck so I had to push it several times so it will go smoothly crossing my finger it will not get stuck on flight, zipper , body looks good and the wheel well it could have been made a bit chunkier (looks like it will not last).

Troppo bella!

Adoro il verde, e tra millemila valigie dai colori noiosi, questa chiamava il mio nome! Ideale per weekends, sembra piuttosto resistente ed ha la capienza giusta per un viaggio di qualche giorno. (e' pure estendibile!). All'interno, e' molto comodo il comparto chiuso con la zip. Le ruote consentono di fare fatica minima. Super consigliata!
