Samsonite Freeform Hardside Extendable with Double Swivel Wheels

Definitely recomm These cases we already had some but purchased another light, easy to roll and have used lots and not broken or damaged

I had a samsonite for the last 5.5 years, a winfield2 purple shiny one, I traveled a lot and the coating got scratched quite a bit but other than that it was great, Until the taxi drive pulled it out of his trunk and the bottom must have caught and maybe it had thinned over the years? it had ripped off part of the outer lowerside and no way I could travel with it anymore, but I think it would have still kept going if that did not happen. Needed a suitcase to go home with of course, so did only samsonite research and would up with this. It's a very good looking case. I will assume the white side will get dirty. I am ok with that. Made it back with just a tiny mark on the white side so far. Rolls great.

Very roomy!! Great color. Rolls well.

We bought two of these pieces, and really like the size and functionality of the suitcases. They are easy to move around seems to be made pretty good. Materials thickness seems adequate enough.

I read all of the reviews and most said that this will get scratched up by the airlines who are not very gentle with suitcases. Someone said to get a suitcase cover and I found one that fits this large checked one perfectly!!! The cover was listed as large, but not the extra large. This slides on and off so easily. Also folks will be less tempted to steal my suitcase and I will be able to locate it more quickly amongst all of the others that come on the conveyer. I am going on a 34 day cruise and am bringing my tenor ukulele which fits perfectly. I will use the expansion zipper and just place the instrument in the middle on top of the clothing.

First - I cannot comment on the exact 28" white/grey Freeform model checked bag, because the one that was delivered from Amazon arrived in a damaged box and the luggage was dead-on-arrival with a broken handle with damaged rails. That said, I was able to purchase the same bag at a local Samsonite store for a lower price than amazon. First off, Samsonite is excellent quality with fit/finish smooth rolling wheels and reliable zippers. I could not justify paying for the next level-up pricing which would be the Outline Pro series, where the main difference was the lining was made out of recycled bottles. I already had the white/grey carry-on size luggage so I bought the 28-inch model to match for overseas 8-day work/play trips. The white color luggage is very easy to spot at baggage claim carousels. Compared to my older 29" luggage, this one is shorter but deeper, so essentially the same storage volume. The corners of the luggage are chamefered, which is good because it makes the bag more resistant to baggage-handling damage to corners, but it does limit storage space. My main issue with the bag is the polypropylene shell material - it's flexible to withstand damage, but it is prone to scratching from rough handling and transport from terminal to plane and back. It is easy to wipe down but it looks like it does take a bit of elbow grease with magic eraser pads to take the deep scratch marks out.
