(More customer reviews)I have now had this bag for something like 3 or 4 months. If you are a casual traveler that only flies 1-4 times a year, it will be a fine bag for you. If you are a professional road-warrior, DO NOT BUY THIS BAG!! This bag cannot handle the stress of the airlines week in and week out. It's embarrassing, but this bag replaced a crappy no-name bag from a 5-piece set I bought for $100. That crappy no-name bag held up 3 times longer than this supposedly better bag.
This bag has already worn through in two places on the back from the airport baggage claims. It looked like crud after the first flight! I have to monitor it close now each to see when it's structure integrity will fail so I can a different bag. My next bag will NOT be American Tourister.Old Review:
I travel every week for work so my luggage gets a workout. This bag is holding up so far. But the front pocket edges were frayed after the first flight. So the bag looks banged up-worn out pretty quickly. But afterward, the wear seems to have stabilized for now.
As for storage, I can't complain. It holds more than my old 25" bag. So much more, that I end up packing extra just to give the bag structural support. If you send this bag only half full through an airline, it will get damaged. It needs stuff in it. The wheels are nicer than what it replaced (some off-brand) and the handle is holding up so far. We'll see if it can handle the 120+ flights the old bag survived. Only time will tell. If you are an occasional traveler, this bag will work just great for you and last a long time. My standards are higher because my needs are much higher.
I bought this bag from Luggage Pros and was not happy with them. I needed the bag within 1 week because the frame in my old bag had broken. BUT Luggage Pros never said anything about a 1 week delay before even shipping the bag. So I had to cross my fingers that my old bag would survive another week until they got around to actually sending me my order. Had I known, never would have ordered from them.
