4.5 out of 5
A great value!
“Good luggage” has become a synonym for
“Expensive luggage.” Decent 28-inch
upright suitcases often cost $150-$400. When I needed a new suitcase recently,
I was bracing to shell out some big bucks….then I found this $70 gem!
While this suitcase is not made of any
high-tech space-age material, its polycord material is both durable and
relatively lightweight. I lugged it all over the Tube in London this summer, so
I know it can take a beating!
My favourite aspect of this suitcase
actually is the styling! The subtle green colour is a nice touch, and I love
the embossed maple leaf on each side! It shows some Canadian patriotism without
being too “in your face!” Such touches also make this suitcase easier to spot
coming off a baggage carousel .
O Canada!
If you love buying souvenirs when you
travel, you’ll dig how this suitcase is expandable in the main compartment by a
few inches. The main compartment is bare-bones, with a typical mesh compartment up top, and a small side bag that clips in, intended for small items and toiletries.
In terms of maneuverability, this suitcase
does have typical inline-skate wheels that do not swivel. They are decent, but
I would appreciate a 360-degree range of motion.
Overall, I think this suitcase is a great
value for any traveler needing good, inexpensive luggage that will last!
