Spinners, Black, 22-inch Baseline Essential Carry-On

There are many brands of high quality bags, this is definitely one of if not the highest. The difference with the Briggs & Riley is the lifetime warranty and customer service.

I travel for work 30 to 40 % of the year for work and personal travel. This bag has lots of small features that make a big impact overall. I only wish I had purchased it sooner.

I bopught 2 of these and we used them both for a trip to Canada. These do NOT live up to the hype. Firstly when fully packed and expanded these are not stable and the handle is way too flimsy. Our bags weighed 53 & 57kgs respectively, which was fine as we were travelling 1st class but the handle on these large bags is way to flimsy to support the weight of the bag. This makes it difficult to control the bag. There no brakes on thw wheeels and the bag constantly runs away from you. The extender inside the suitcase only works when the bag is empty. If you overfill your suitcase and then want to extend it, it doesnt work and so you need to take everything out your suitcase and start again. Its full of gimmicks that simply dont work. Its back to reliable Samsonite for us!!!

I love the compartments and storage capability. However, there are not good wheels on this suitcase. It does not spin straight and very difficult to maneuver ! I would love to return it as it really sucks!!

This thing works great. That said, I probably could have gone with a less expensive bag and had similar results. The Travelpro platinum series for example, if the lifetime guarantee is your thing. But they were sold out. I like that I can either ship it to be repaired, or, just buy $15 repair kits for just about anything (wheels, handles, etc). With travelpro you have to call them. Briggs has them on their website. Only have to ship for zipper issues.

Excellent product but pricey

I have been using an underseat spinner for years then decided to get a hardshell spinner last year because it was so trendy. But after 2 trips I returned it and did more research which landed me on this Briggs and Riley 19inch. It is just so much more practical to have easy access to multiple pockets. I aslo wanted something in between an underseat carry on and the standard 22x14x9 carry on. Briggs is really the only brand that offer something in betwee. I am a light packer and dont want to be tempted to buy too much stuff simply because I have the space. This luggage actually isnt that much bigger side by side next to my underseat carry on but the fact the telescope handle is on the outside creates additonal packable space and everythng is flat. Plus the compression system is a genius idea if you really need to stuff your luggage to the max. The unique outer pocket in the back between the handle is perfect for putting your phone charger and phone.

Was looking for a more durable upgrade on the travelpro elite. Both highly rated pieces of luggage. The b&r of course is almost $800. After just one trip this bag looks dirty and scuffed as if I had owned it for a year. The expandable section seemed cool but perhaps too easily collapses when you are loading and unloading the bag. The most disappointing thing was maneuverability. It’s adequate on hard floors but so difficult on carpets that I just ended up ripping it as if it was a two wheeler instead of a four wheeler. It’s a good bag - I just expected more due to its reviews and pricing.

Close to perfect. Unfortunately there is not enough zipper clearance from the wheel casing. If the suitcase is empty or simply just not filled to the top then the cover will lay too flush and it’s a pain to maneuver around with one hand and still very cumbersome to do with two hands.

Its very well-built and looks classy. The interior storage is great and the exterior pockets are useful.
