SwissGear Sion Softside Expandable Luggage – Carry-On Suitcase with 360 Degree Wheels & Retractable Handle – 21 Inch, Perfect for 1-3 Night Trips – Blue

I bought two of these large suitcases to take on an upcoming trip. They seem to be very nice. The wheels are most important and the wheels on these seem strong and well-placed. They are big enough…I have been able to pack everything I want to take. I love the color. Not a red…forgot what the actual color is but I think it will be easier to spot on the baggage roundabout at the airport. The zippers seem just fine. I like the added pouches on front for last minute items. These seem sturdy, roll beautifully, size is great, color is very nice and the handle works perfectly. They arrived very quickly. We have used our Samsonite for years and alas, a wheel broke on a recent vacation. After many years of use…the pieces were looking well worn. It was time to buy new. I hope we have many years of use out of this luggage.

I got this set when it went on sale and it was such a great deal!! It seems durable and looks sharp. Correct sizing for check-in luggage so that's great. I wanted luggage which I can bring home big boxes in. It's so nice to close the lid and zip it up instead of adjusting and try to close the luggage that has a zipper in the middle. I took it to Japan and it still looks brand new! I know this brand is very durable and high quality! It is a very sharp looking set! Rolls so easy! highly recommended.

I recently traveled using a hard side piece of luggage. Upon arrival in my stateroom and unpacking I noticed the case had received substantial damage to both top and bottom corners on one side.; three cracks in the suitcase. I debated buying a new piece of luggage for travel home but opted to buy a roll of duct tape to mend inside and out. Upon arriving home I researched many soft side expandable pieces of luggage and read hundreds of reviews. I chose this 25” piece in black because it had many positive reviews, was on sale at $40 less than same piece of luggage in several colors. I recieved this piece today and inspected it thoroughly. There was absolutely no visual damage. All the zippers worked with ease. Wheels rolled easily across both wood floors and area rugs. The telescoping handle raises to two positions but wish there was a third lower option. I’m 5’5” and the settings are a bit high for me to roll comfortably at my side; however, I can always pull it behind me. I can also easily maneuver along side me by simply holding the top handle that’s used for lifting. This seems to be well made and I feel sure I’ll get several years of service for travel. And, the black matches a carry-on piece I already own.

I took this on a 10 day European trip and it did better than expected. It fit in all airline overhead bins in America and Europe. Using vacuum bags, I was able to get 10 sweaters, 4 jeans, 1 pair of snow pants, and had extra room in the internal compartment for socks and other necessities. I even bought a light weight coat in Italy that we were able to fit in this suitcase for the trip home. Zippers are sturdy. The wheels showed signs of wear but this was after being dragged on the streets of Rome for over 30minutes. The handle held up well but does seem to be more on the flimsy side. However, it handled well through the trip with a personal bag hanging on top. Overall would recommend this carry on with large internal capacity!

This SwissGear luggage is exactly what I needed for long trips. It’s lightweight, durable, and very roomy — the expandable feature is a big plus! The wheels glide smoothly, and the handles feel sturdy. I also love all the extra compartments that help keep things organized. Stylish, functional, and built to last — highly recommend!

Love this brand! Bag is very sturdy but lite. I prefer softside luggage of the shells. Has traveled well with me on several trips. Wished it was in a color other than black and the time of purchase but well worth the price. Would definitely consider buying more of this brand.

Full disclosure: I am a paralyzed traveler. I need a carry-on that is rock solid in terms of functionality and durability. I’ve used this luggage extensively in the six months that I’ve owned it. My limited mobility makes me hard on my luggage. I bought this product to replace a very expensive Hartman carry on. I also a big T. Anthony fan/purchaser. I have high standards. I’m blown away by this item, especially given its v affordable price point. There is a lot of great to say about this luggage:First, it is perfectly designed in that there are two outside pockets that are perfect for carrying a billfold, cell phone, etc. They do not interfere with being able to open the luggage completely or partially in terms of accessing the main storage area. This is quite clever.Second, inside, it is super sturdy with an interior metal frame. The wheels are super solid and roll well with little resistance. Nice touches include a large dedicated pocket for dirty laundry and a separate toiletries pocket. U won’t need to pack a separate dop kit (saving space). The telescoping handle works well. If I had one improvement in the design, it would be to allow this handle to lock before full extension.I lock my luggage when I leave my hotel room. The zippers have holes at the end to facilitate this. I also like that the handle for carrying the luggage horizontally, is exceptionally strong and perfect for my lock so that I may store it under my bed to lock it to the bed frame.Last, I purchased mine in Royal Navy blue. I must say with the Swiss flag in red and white, it is stylish indeed! I very much look forward to packing it and loading it for my next adventure. Also, I am not a paid reviewer or so-called influencer. Just a happy customer.

As pictured and expected. 25in purchased. Perfect size for a step up from the smaller carry on. Looks great. Will see durability on upcoming travel. You can not be rough with the zippers or the handles. Take your time zip/unzip and extending handle. The wheels seem ok. Not as fluid but workable. 10 out of 10 for looks. 8 out of 10 on quality. Zippers clasp and handle are on the plastic side. Materials are a step down from over higher priced bags but didnt want to spend more than 100.
