Glides Like a Dream, Even With A Stroller In The Mix ✈️🧳
The size on these is just right for checked luggage, roomy without feeling oversized. What really impressed me is how smoothly they roll. I was traveling with two of these plus a stroller, and somehow it still worked. The wheels move in every direction effortlessly, so I could walk with the stroller in the middle and guide both suitcases at the same time. Not graceful, but totally doable, which honestly felt like a miracle in an airport 🙌🚼 The spinner wheels are very responsive and don’t fight you when turning or changing direction. No dragging, no tipping, no awkward pulling. That made a huge difference when juggling kids and bags 😅 I also love the look. The subtle silver accent on the black hard shell is a really nice design touch. It feels clean and modern without being flashy. The shell itself feels sturdy and well made, not flimsy or thin, and the whole suitcase gives off that solid Samsonite quality you expect. I’m hoping these last me a long time, but first impressions are very strong ✈️💪 Smooth rolling, smart design, and practical for real life travel, especially if you’re managing more than just yourself. Would absolutely buy again.

Perfectly fine!
With the new universal carry on sizes, I was nervous about this one. We flew Delta in January of 2026 and the overhead bins are the same ones from before the new rule took effect, so there was no “fit” problem in the existing overheads. And no one was asking anyone to put their carry ons through any kind of sizer (in Atlanta, anyway). If they ever get new aircraft with smaller overheads, I guess that’s where the problem may or may not occur. That being said, these were perfectly fine. I liked the locks, we used our suitcases to put our valuables in and locked them instead of the using the in-room safe. They roll great, roomy for the size, we carried on for a 7 night trip just fine. Would buy again.

Great carryon!
I bought one (carry-on size) for myself and then went back to get another one for my husband. Easily the best carry-ons we have owned so far. Lightweight, sturdy, wheels roll great. Very spacious inside. We just took them for a trip (and checked them in), and they both arrived just fine. Yes they got scratched (lightly), but I wouldn't expect them to stay scratch free unless you don't use them at all. I have only used it once so can't speak for whether or not it will hold up for multiple trips, but I don't see why not. Not sure if the carryon size will be accepted by international airlines since it is a bit bigger, but domestically it shouldn't be an issue. By the way, I bought "used-like new" option from Amazon Resale instead of the new option, and you wouldn't tell! It arrived in a slightly damaged/opened box, but everything was still new inside (all the tags and such). I usually buy "used" items to save money, and Amazon hasn't disappointed! :)

Trust in Samsonite
First time to buy a carry on suitcase. Got tired of the hassle of the waiting to check a bag, having to pay extra over the price of the ticket, and then waiting for the luggage to come down the carousel when the flight lands. This saves me time. The Samsonite brand is well know for quality and reliability and longevity. The zipper closure keeps my suitcase closed and my items in place. Love it - definitely worth the price.

Sturdy and easy to pack! Happy!
I bought this suitcase to replace my red soft sided Samsonite. I wanted to try out a hard sided case, and I researched hard sided cases thoroughly, along with the newer soft sided ones just to compare. I didn’t see anything superior with soft sided, although I do have a newer 20” purple TravelPro that I adore. Ultimately I was between this one, the Amazon basics hardside, Delsey Chatelet, and Samsonite Omni PC and Winfield 2. This one was rated in most top 5’s. The suitcase rated best on most lists was the hardside models from the company Away, but they are above my price range. I also read the reviews here on Amazon. The Omni PC and Winfield are both beautiful, but the Omni has an inferior plastic top handle that breaks easily, and the Winfield’s glossy case seems to scratch easily. I ultimately decided on this one due to color and pricing. The Amazon basics suitcase is rated well for the price, but unfortunately I really don’t like the looks of it. The Delsey Chatelet is gorgeous, but has limited color choices and is slightly pricier. I also considered the Delsey Paris Helium Air and TravelPro Maxlite Air, which are great looking, but both were not rated well, mostly for sturdiness issues. I loved this suitcase when it came! I like that the shell is matte, and shouldn’t scratch, and the whole shell is sturdy, has lots of pockets and we’ll working zippers, expands, and has a TSA lock. Empty it was very light and the wheels maneuvered easily and seemed sturdy. Packing this thing is awesome to me in comparison to my soft shells. It does need to open completely flat to access both sides, but I didn’t mind that at all throughout my trip. It’s so easy with the two sides - I put clothing in packing cubes in one side, and care case and all other items in the other half. One half zips close completely with a material cover, and the other has the standard suitcase clips. It also has a few different pockets. I was able to fit everything I needed with ease for a 7-day trip. It doesn’t flex quite as much as a soft shell, but I actually found that to be an advantage - it doesn’t allow you to overpack. I checked this suitcase round trip on a weeklong trip to Florida, and it held up beautifully. I didn’t notice any damage to the case, and it’s so light and easy to maneuver. It rolled with ease in the airport and out on the street. It goes up curbs without a hitch, and is easy on escalators. It has a sturdy handle on top and on the side. Zippers are holding up great so far. I can’t see myself buying another soft sided suitcase if this holds up for awhile. I love it!! The only thing I can’t rate it on is longevity, as I’ve only taken it on one trip. I’d like to say “I’ll update if this review changes, but we all know that won’t happen!” :)

I love this set and I love white but then obviously it easily gets dirty. Would’ve been perfect if it’s dirt proof. Lol kidding aside, durability and baggage capacity is superb.
