Versatile and tough luggage
Our family now owns one of these per person, including one previous generation model that must be five years old by now. They have proven themselves to be versatile, easy to operate, stable even on bad surfaces and very tough. We use them with Eagle Creek's packing system most of the time to organize the contents better. There are a few downsides to this sort of luggage to be aware of. Many modes of transportation are set up for ordinary luggage, so it might be hard to get the trunk into the allotted spaces. This has never been a major problem, but I've noticed it while on various trains in Switzerland and Germany. Flights have no problem with the size, but here you have to be conscious that the trunk can pack more that you may have weight allowance. This is one of the reasons we now have one per family member: so that we can distribute the weight. Lastly, carrying the trunk is not as convenient as ordinary luggage, however with all the handles and grips it is is easy to lift it for short distances. Luckily, modern airports and stations are built with few stairs.
On the upside, even the oldest trunk we have has not broken once. The wheels still work just as well as new. All the corners show abrasion through airport mistreatment, but nothing has broken or ripped. The latest generation trunk has been built with stronger feeling material even though the previous generation also did the trick.
We also discovered that we can fit two of these trunks side-by-side in our Mini Clubman so we can use the rather limited space in the Clubman optimally.
