SamsoniteStryde 2 Hardside Expandable Luggage with Double Spinner Wheels, Medium Glider, Brushed Graphite

I did lots of research to find a good quality, hard sided carry-on suitcase. I don’t fly often, but the suitcase I used before was a soft sided one, and it wobbled horribly when trying to pull it behind you. It was also showing wear. I wanted something high quality that would last, and I’m very happy with my choice. It fit easily in the overhead bins on my recent flight with United, it rolls very smoothly with no wobble, and it has well thought out compartments inside for all your stuff. It also has a fairly unique design on the outside. I didn’t see a bag like it at either airport I went to. It was more than I was waiting to spend, but so far it’s worth it. Highly recommend!

My first set of “adult” luggage. I love the off-set large bag. So much easier to maneuver and the smaller case piggybacks nicely on the larger one. The small case has a port for a battery charger. I love the hanger clip for hanging clothes in the large bag. And the dividers make packing a breeze. The clamshell design is new to me and took a little while to get used to. But overall. Very very happy. The wheels roll smooth and have 360 rotation on the large bag. Note: I purchased the “like new” option and saved 50%. It came with everything still in original packing with all the plastic wrap still on. I think someone probably didn’t like the off set and reformed. There was NOTHING wrong with it. And I could return if there was anything wrong. Great deal!

I love these! They have traveled via car and air a few times and no scratches or blemishes or issues of any kind. The interior looks so high end and all the compartments help you get more in. If your make up breaks or your shampoo leaks it wont get all over your clothes. You can get more in here I do believe. I like the way you can use it like a valet for long fancy dresses while all ypur other things are rolled or folded. The handles work well and stay in position( lots of positions for every height person). Now i pack 50lbs consistently in mine and I will say these roll about the same as any other dual roller wheel case at that weight. Rolls more easily than single wheel designs especially on those long carpeted hotel hallways. I haven't had an issue with the zippers but I haven't traveled with them in the tsa locks either. Mine came with extra zipper heads in one of the interior pockets inside a little pouch sealed to the pocket so they are always right there if needed.

We bought two of these suitcases, one for my husband and one for myself. We love how this case combines a hanging bag with a large suitcase for folded clothes and other items. I was able to pack enough clothes for a 4 day trip (2 outfits for each day) along with toiletry items, hair care tools and 4 pairs of shoes with ease. I am an overpacker! My only concern is the hanging piece that secures the hangers is made of plastic so I’m hopeful it will hold up. Overall, a great piece of luggage!

Light but sturdy, wheels very smooth, larger case tolerated baggage well and smaller perfect carry-on size. Internally, the compartments and extra cases provided are perfect. Appreciate being able to attach carryon to the larger piece. Quite a deal (purchased on sale)! Very happy…!

The media could not be loaded. The suitcase is undeniably stylish and thoughtfully designed, with plenty of great features that initially made me excited to use it. The compartments are well laid out, the material feels durable, and overall it gives the impression of being a high-quality piece of luggage. Unfortunately, I ran into a major issue right away with the retractable handle. It gets stuck at the shortest setting and refuses to extend fully, which makes it nearly impossible to use comfortably.The most frustrating part is that I discovered this before even taking it on its first trip, yet I can’t return it because the return window is so short. For the price and the otherwise promising design, I really wanted this suitcase to work out, but a malfunctioning handle is a dealbreaker for travel. I hope the manufacturer addresses this flaw, because with a functional handle, it could have been an excellent suitcase.

This is a very sturdy and attractive piece of medium size luggage and great for a weekend away by car but too large for a carry on on an airplane trip. I recently checked it as baggage and it held up perfectly.

Purchased 2 of these (Samsonite Stryde Hardside Glider Medium Journey, Blue Slate) as my 1st "hardshell" bags for international travel. This review is written after 9 months and 3 international tripsPart of the attraction being that they are quite distinctive and easily recognized on the carousel. Despite their unusual dimensions they still fit a full height 3 part tripod diagonally though you need to take the head off and you can easily fit the full 50 pounds of luggage allowance while the dimensions suit all American carriers (and all international ones I know of)In use they have proved reliable, easy to maneuver and fairly tough (1 corner of 1 bag did get knocked in but a push from the inside restored it) and very very stable (presumably due to how low to the ground they are)Just remember which way is "up" so you don't dump the contents out when you open it.As an added bonus, they roll under the turnstiles for the MTA (NY city) subway and PATH - though they roll so well so need to be careful they don't get away from you when you do that.Can also be used to transport rack mounted gear so long as it is not more than 40cm (1' 4") deep or higher than 4UOverall very happy with them. They are not 'run over it with a truck' strong (just 'good for baggage handler' strong but that is the tradeoff you must pay for the lighter weight
