Greater than one weekFirst I cant be any more happier about this purchase! I got the 29 on Amazon warehouse deal ( used open box) for less than a $100. It came in great condition, only minor blemishes, scratches to the outside ( only because it has a glossy finish) with all tags attached and everything in good working order. The handles are nice and sturdy with rubbery feeling to them. The wheels are awesome. The zippers and interior fabric is nice and more thicker than other flimsy polyester fabric used in other luggages. My only issue is that the strap inside the compartment isnt elastic. In every large suitcase Ive seen, this strap is better when elastic especially if its in X shape. Another minor issue is how in the product description it says, scratch resistant. This is not true at all. This luggage has a beautiful, smooth, glossy finish and obviously it will scratch easily and mine already has many minor scratches since its a return item. I wish the shell was made with matte finish with tiny embossed pattern on the shell, so it could resist any scratches. And last but not least the case doesnt have any rubber feet on the long side (pic 2) or on the broad side ( pic 3) when its going to be open on the floor to help protect the glossy finish. As you can see, its already picked up fiber and dust from my carpet. These are very minor issues and this is a beautiful, stylish luggage but it would fantastic to improve those issues, especially since Delsey is reputable luggage brand. TIP: dont pull the pull out handle to the max, it is flimsy as in every other luggage Ive seen. Watch the Video.

> 3 dayIt is light and easy to use. When even full, it still stays under the 50# limit for airlines. TSA a lock is easy to set. Also have the 21in model with same results. Have used both for international travel.

> 3 day5 stars for this great travel bag. I took a week long business trip to Asia and was pleasantly surprised at how well this case performed. It suffered the abuse of the baggage handling process easily, wiped up with a damp rag, held all my clothes easily and the zipper to expand the capacity was a blessing. The wheels and handle seemed flimsy at first but I never had an issue all week, even when fully loaded. There is no reason to have a heavy case (to take up valuable weigh at check-in) when you can have the Delsey Helium.

> 3 dayWe have had this suitcase for about 3 months, my partner and I travel a lot for work and pleasure so I did some extensive research on the pros and cons of hard luggage vs soft and the different types of wheels etc. This Aero Delsey line was always one of the top rated and made just about every travel blog luggage rating list I saw. We bought a whole set, the 29, 25 and 2 of the smallest ones the 19 that has the outside pocket and can fit in a overhead bin. I would recommend getting the 3rd party warranty as it covers about anything and is well worth it if you do travel a lot like we do. All of the sizes that we purchased fit inside one another which is great for storage. You do have to get use to how to pack and open the hard luggage if you have never used them before. Dont want all of you stuff pouring out in be hotel. Couple of things I would say to think about if you are looking for new luggage. The wheels are so important, these spinners are great make sure that no matter which luggage you end up buying make sure the wheels are double-sided spinners so its little 2 little wheels on each one (like on office chairs) some of the cheaper, and even more expensive brands have single wheels and they will wear down faster and break more easily. Also one thing to note, when you have these hard shell suitcases and you get to a hotel or where ever you are traveling to, if you are the type of person that likes to setup a luggage stand and just live out of your suitcase sitting on it, these may not be the best option for you. Since items are stored evenly on each side you have to open the suit case fully like a book to really access everything and to pack and unpack it, just something to consider. In the 3 months we have had these we have traveled 2 times internationally and probably 4-5 times domestically like NYC area to FL and NC, checking these hard shell suitcases does get some scratches on them but overall they have really held up well. The side handles, retractable handle and the wheels have all remained sturdy and we have not had any issues. The lock works great on the side and the inside zipper compartment and straps all work great. You can really fit a lot into these suitcases and the best part about this model is that is gives a little unlike some hard shells so you can fit that extra few things in, it also has the zipper expander but we have not needed to expand it any. The luggage looks great and very stylish, have taken it right into meetings with me and even had some complements. Feel free to reach out if you have any specific questions I have included a few photos to show have they have worn as most people probably travel less in a year then we do in a few months.

> 3 dayI travel to China a lot for work (11 times last year) and this piece of luggage accompanies me every trip. Ive had it a year and the wheels are still on and fully functional. That is shocking to me because it has to have about 100 miles of use on uneven brick streets with 40lb inside. I dont know how they build something to last so long and take that abuse. Totally recommend.

> 3 dayExcellent piece of luggage. I can pack a weeks worth of clothes (and I am a big guy) in the main compartment, plus a laptop and charger (although I use a separate bag for my laptop now) in the front compartment. Seems well built so far, will update when I bring it on a week trip to Central America.

> 3 day[3RD DELSEY LUGGAGE PURCHASE] The color I consider to be “peony pink” is so unique & fashionable, I love it! My 19” carry-on had plenty of space for clothing, toiletries and even items from a shopping trip. Wonderfully lightweight and small, the extended handle is long enough to place another travel bag over it and still roll with ease. My suggestion is watch for the sales and wait for your preferred color.

> 3 dayI like to travel for pleasure. I have two Delsey bags--a regular size for travel under one week. And a larger one for longer travel abroad and on cruises. The large bag fits nicely under the bed on a cruise ship. I can also fit the medium size bag IN the larger bag for storage. Great range of colors. And the bag has held up well with handling so far

> 3 dayLoaded this to the gills for a European vacation. Checked it on 6 flights when it was generally within a few ounces of the 50 lb/23 kg limit. It shows some scrapes from baggage handling, but it protected the several different breakable objects we entrusted to it without any mishaps. Im hoping for years more good use from this suitcase, but in its inaugural journey, it performed as well I I could have hoped. Maybe Im a troglodyte, but this is my 1st 4-wheeled luggage. This is a wonderful innovation for luggage of this size.

> 3 dayIts a cheap but functional hardshell polycarb suitcase. As many other reviewers have mentioned, the paint job on the outside is pretty terribly done -- lots of chipping on each trip. Still, most of us dont buy suitcases for their aesthetic appeal.
