destroyed by Air France, but still a great bag!
Originally purchased the Skyway Luggage Epic 28 Inch 2 Wheel Expandable Upright, Black, One Size for my daughter on a spring school trip to France and Italy. Decided the risk she would be overweight coming back was too high, so purchased Skyway Luggage Epic 25 Inch 2 Wheel Expandable Upright, Black, One Size because the Skyway Epic line seemed to have some quality built into it. I thought the handle was pretty sturdy and the seams and zippers seemed sturdy enough. I liked the two wheels because I figured my daughter would have to roll her bag down cobblestones streets and up concrete stairs to their small pensione. The two wheeled luggage worked well compared to the spinner bags. My daughter stenciled and painted some designs on her black suitcase so she could tell them apart on the baggage carousel, especially on the second leg of their journey from Nice to Rome. I included the pictures here for fun. We also purchased Rockland Luggage 19 Inch Tote Bag, Black, One Size and she used that tote as her carry-on, instead of a backpack like all the other students used, so she only had to drag a small part of her tote from under her seat to get to her personal items (thanks to the U-shaped zipper opening). Anyway, the bag survived just fine from the US to Paris and then on to Marseilles. Unfortunately my daughter decided to use her TSA lock TSA Approved Cable Luggage Locks, Re-settable Combination with Alloy Body ... and locked her luggage on the second leg of their journey Nice to Rome. French airport security cut her lock and damaged the main zipper and ripped the seam. She ended up leaving the suitcase at their pensione in Rome. Despite this, we liked the suitcase so much we've ordered a second one as a replacement for her future air travel. I am also looking to buy the Skyway Luggage Epic 21 Inch 2 Wheel Expandable Carry On, Black, One Size as a carry-on piece if she decides against checking a bag on the next trip.

Wheels work well but no tabs or legs on bottom so suitcase tips if not held on to
Great suitcase for the money...but missing legs on bottom so he suitcase will not stand up on it's own vertically ...this makes it very difficult to travel. Otherwise it's a sturdy suitcase

Right size, but the handle seems a bit cheap.
I purchased this bag because of the wheels. Most of the other bags I see these days have those silly "spinner" wheels. They stick out so far, they are just ASKING to be broken of on the conveyer belt.Anyway, the bag is a nice size and it would expand If I needed the extra room. This size bag makes it harder to OVER pack. Easier to keep the weight under 50 lbs.I've only been on one trip with it so far and it seemed to hold up. I just think the pull out handle looks a bit flimsy and cheap, but if it holds up it holds up.

Nice luggage except for the design change
We recently returned from a trip to Europe and realized that it was finally time to retire our old luggage. Since we purchased the Epic 21' 2 Wheel Expandable Carry-on last year and were pleased, we thought we'd try the 25" case. I look forward to using it on future trips. My only complaint is that the manufacturer changed the position of the 'add-a-bag' strap. On the carry-on it is securely attached under the plate surrounding the telescoping handle. On the 25" case, it is 'stitched' into the front pocket. In order to use it, you need to unzip the zippers to expose the strap. It doesn't look very secure and I doubt that it would be able to hold much weight in the new position. It was a big disappointment when I opened the box as the website photo still shows the strap in the old position. Wish Skyway would go back to the old design!

Love this suitcase
This serves my purpose. I wanted a blue, inexpensive suitcase, medium sized. It does get a little tipsy when it stands upright but for the price, I can deal with it. I didn't need the spinner-type wheels as personally, I'd rather pull my suitcase than have it stand upright and roll beside me. (If it's too heavy to pull than you need to pack lighter; just my opinion). Love this suitcase. It's a good value for the dollar.

Good bag for the price.
Bag worked well on my first trip. The only real issue I had was that with the bag full, it tends to tip forward, away from the wheels. I think the stand is not far enough forward. It probably would tip over if i had opened the expansion zipper and put in more clothing. Other than that, I like the bag and had no issues checking the bag or handling while going through the airport.

Roomy and practical suitcase
This case is really big inside and easily held all the things I needed for a 10 day trip including an extra pair of shoes and several books to read. It does get heavy when fully packed, but that is to be expected. I had to roll it several blocks from the parking lot to the hotel and back and it stood up fine to that use. Even though the suitcase was heavy, the wheels stood up fine. There is a mesh compartment which is useful for dirty laundry and such, as well as a small and a large pocket on the outside. The case also expands if needed. Definitely would recommend.

OK and a great price
It's not the best but for the price it is a decent luggage. I had a similar (same brand) and held up well enough One thing the price goes up and down dramatically so watch for a few days. I bought at 44.00 today 54.00
