U.S. Traveler Boren Polycarbonate Hardside Rugged Travel Suitcase Luggage with 8 Spinner Wheels, Aluminum Handle, Lavender, Carry-on 22-Inch, USB Port

Suitcases are very expensive and some don’t last long after the beatings they take.I’ve used this several times including a couple of trips internationally and it really holds up. Tons of space inside including some hidden areas as well. Wheels work good and it’s easy to move. Highly recommend

The U.S. Traveler Boren Polycarbonate Hardside Suitcase is fantastic. Its lightweight polycarbonate shell ensures easy handling while still providing excellent durability and protection for your belongings. The sleek design is both stylish and functional, and the spinner wheels make maneuvering a breeze. With a spacious interior and organized compartments, packing is a breeze. For a reliable, lightweight, and attractive travel suitcase, this one is a top choice. Highly recommended!

I got this because my normal suitcase, that has lasted me for years, had an issue with the handle not retracting easily (the mechanism inside the slide was broken), and I didn't want to have to screw around with it at the airport. I didn't feel like paying 500$ for a new one (mistake #1), so based on the high review score, I went with this one because it was one of the only ones that would be delivered in time for a trip I was making.The luggage is your average super basic design, very little padding on the inside, standard zipper, handles, and wheels. To it's credit, the wheels feel smooth when rolling and the handle retracts/extends easily. That's why it got 1 star (also because you can't leave zero stars)Now for the bad. I've had this for less than a year, and on 5 separate occasions, it has split open. three of the times it has split when coming off the luggage conveyor at my destination, forcing me to have to repack it on the spot. Once it split while Just rolling it (literally just dumped everything on on the ground) and Once it split somewhere between the airplane and the cart, forcing Southwest's baggage handlers to deliver it to the oversize cargo area. The zipper on this suitcase is an absolute POS (piece of...), and for that reason, I CANNOT recommend this to anyone.Yes, I don't overpack it (the weight when scanned at the airport is 40-45lbs always), yes, I ensure BOTH zippers are fully closed, etc. It's just crap zipper system. The only way you can guarantee this thing does not split is to either wrap it in plastic wrap, or get a belt or something that goes around it to keep it sealed (or maybe duct tape it shut). That's the only way I can see you guaranteeing this thing doesn't split open somewhere between when you give it to the Agents , the Plane and then back to you at the destination. DO NOT BUY.

Presidents day sale for 3 nested spinners. Flexible as are all of these type hardsides so may feel flimsy but better than ABS or Polypropylene. However these are good spinners, well made. Dragged all 3 down ramp, thru grass, over tangled vines and in filthy concrete floor garage, one at a time. Kept rolling. Trash brushed right off wheels. Pull up handle rugged enough for me to sub it for my cane. I use a cane full time , thought I might try a " rolling gait" . It worked! No cane, nice stable walk. Not for those who use cane for support but great for those who balance. Worked fine for all 3 though largest did not track well on ramp of 20 degrees angle. Zips were smooth, pull up adjusted easily, minimal wobble. Handle recess at bottom of all three! Return from overseas and watch baggage folks between immigration and customs take the bag you give them, grab a wheel and heave it through the hatch between baggage claim and customs. Every time.Look at the reviews for every single spinner " the wheel was flimsy, airlines broke it " . Nope some handler did, accidentally. So, to help those over burdened workers these bags have rubberized handles that lift up enough to get a gloved hand under plus the afore mentioned bottom grip. Hopefully saving your wheel. Will the corners crush ? If dropped on one of course, it is plastic not rubber or steel. But if it is like my other polycarb cases a heat gun fixxes that. Interior is Spartan. I do not care, I use packing cubes. Zippers worked smoothly all 3. Is it a ' $500 for one' lux case-no. Will it for an average of $35 for one of the 3 protect your belonings, get them from parking lot to plane and back again ? Yes. Is the color cute? Your decision. By the way I have several Y-- and other brand burst zippers. I have learned no zipped luggage when filled can withstand the pressure of stacks of others in the hold of the plane or drops from a height. Watch the planes being loaded . Better, google " luggage storage on plane" . 2 types: big carts stacked with tons of bags or poor guy bent over stacking tons of bags scooted down floor to him. Many falls, throws and bumps. I now always use a luggage strap helps prevent overpressure on bags from bursting zipper. Now the best part: not the USB hatch on the carry on but the dimensions. Per manufacturers specs slightly too large for United, but that is due to handles which due to flex of baggages walls you can scootch down into measuring box. But no one is likely to stop you anyway. Eyeballing it, it appears the right size and it will fit the new standard of wheels in, turned sideways. And with that bottom handle you should have no trouble getting a good 2 arm lift and avoid bashing the guy in 12b. May report more after trip to luggage " proving ground " - Orlando.

Read a lot of reviews and did a fair amount of research regarding 28”-29” hardside suitcases. There are many available at a wide range of prices and it’s not easy to pick one at a reasonable price especially since won’t be using it a lot. I selected this one as it was light, had a large capacity, very good mobility and other pluses as well as being expandable. It seems to be well constructed, the zippers are not the heaviest but stronger than most and are smooth operating. The exterior has texture and fluted sides for strength and multiple handles. I’ve purchased a couple of suitcase straps to keep it secure and to prevent twisting if expanded based on input from most users of oversized suitcases. It’s also good looking for a large plastic box on wheels as well. Time will tell.

This is a great suitcase! Ordered the carryon size and it had a lot of room, the expansion zipper creates more room if needed. The compartments are great for organizing and packing smaller items. The straps/buckles hold clothes in place and doesn't create wrinkles. It also separates each side. The option to use a handle to carry or pull was helpful when traveling. The wheels are easy to maneuver and the suitcase travels smoothly. The pink was a nice color - would highly recommend this suitcase!

Suitcase is lightweight and fit all our stuff for a transatlantic trip. The spinners also handled very well navigating the streets, buses and subway. It was much stronger than I expected and great value for the money.

Not as firm as I thought but still good

Koffer kam heute gut-verpackt an.Macht einen soliden Eindruck.Wäre er mir 100€ wert? Vermutlich nicht.Sieht in natura besser aus, als auf den Produktfotos.Maße sind: 51x32x77cm4,2kg (30 Inch-Version)Ich werde updaten, wenn er die erste Reise hinter sich hat.

1st time using my new cases..just home from flight and both cases damaged badly. The wheels area of large case totally destroyed. Not hard wearing at all and useless after one use. Expensive waste of money not durable or strong cases.extremely disappointed as looked amazing but turned out.to.be terrible cases

Love this luggage it is so light and swivels very easily. So happy with this purchase.
