Centric Hardside Expandable Luggage with Spinner Wheels, Blue Slate, Checked-Large 28-Inch

I bought this piece of luggage specifically for a 17 day vacation tour of 7 cities in Italy. I thought the spinner wheels would be a big help. They werent. The wheels would not track straight, they would zig-zag on smooth or semi smooth surfaces. The handle does not seem durable; it twists and is loose in its guide. Total weight was about 38 pounds, well under the 50 pound no charge limit the airlines have. Only one side had a zipper net to hold clothes in place, the other side has two elastic straps which did nothing to hold clothes in. Glad I bought packing tubes,they helped a lot. and Im not sure I can get a refund.

The first thing I did when I received these two pieces of luggage was weigh them as this is very important for travel, of course. The larger case weighed about 8.4 lbs and the smaller one was 6.2 lbs. Not bad. The case is made from a ribbed plastic (poly carbonate?) which provides a level of protection one step higher than a cloth-like case. I would not store photographic equipment in it unless you encased it in additional protection. There is an expansion layer which is nice for extra stuffing of clothing. The zippers run smooth. Both cases have the standard TSA type combination lock which click locks into the zipper loops. The wheels run smooth and are made of a rubber like material. The smaller case fits into the larger case for better storage.

I love this brand. It is the best!

The box was damaged in shipping and the suitcase was scratched up which sucks. But I guess it will end up getting beat up in travel. It is super lightweight!

This is a very lightweight yet durable product. The price was very affordable. The wheels are nice and big and it moves seemlessly through any surface.

I am an avid fan of samsonite products, however i purchased this small roller less than a year ago and one of the wheels has worn down completely to the point of being unusable and the way samsonite works you cannot just order a replacement wheel and instead have to replace the whole unit and there isnt an extended warranty offered - next time Ill go with something cheaper

This feels like a piece of junk. Handle shakes. Feels cheap. The quality is disappointing and unexpected for a Samsonite. Wont be buying that brand again.

Thank

Good

The carry handle broke on the first use of the suitcase. To repair it under the warranty I have to drive over an hour pay $15 to have them ship it to the repair center and then wait. Garbage product.
