Samsonite Omni PC Hardside Expandable Luggage with Spinner Wheels, Silver, Checked-Large 28-Inch

Large, roomy and well made. I had a smaller version and it’s been very durable and resists showing scratches and wear.

Great buy! Sturdy, easy to walk with. Recently travelled to Hawaii for 10 days and this held all my clothes, makeup, etc….just great! Love the color, matches my carry-on. Highly recommend.

TL;DR: I highly recommend this set. It looks great, seems sturdy and durable in my limited use, and is priced just right. Got the 3-piece set ahead of a week-long trip because I wanted something that looked good and that I could use for years to come. These were priced right within my budget and, in my opinion, were worth the cost. There are cheaper options for luggage, but if you travel on any sort of cadence, you know that quality and durability is the name of the game and that you typically need to pay a bit more for that. I think these strike a perfect balance of affordability, durability, design, and brand reputation. Samsonite was recommended numerous times on reddit's /r/BuyItForLife subreddit, so I decided on this set after reading some of the reviews. I've read reviews that say that Samsonite's quality has gone down, and that may or may not be true, but I haven't experienced any issues. I think it's important to keep in mind that there's always a possibility that someone received a faulty set. That would be frustrating, but it happens. I don't necessarily think it's fair to write off the entire set because you happened to get one from a bad batch. I do think that Samsonite may need to improve it's quality control if this kind of scenario is common enough, but I personally had no issues. I had my checked bag packed tight, even slightly over weight, and had no issues picking it up by the extendable handle. Even though that's generally not advisable, the luggage felt sturdy and I didn't feel like I was on the verge of breaking it like I have with cheaper luggage. The wheels were buttery smooth even going over carpet, the expandable handles glide in and out smoothly, and there are some nice pockets within the luggage where you could put smaller items like AirTags, small accessories, charging cables, spare change, or whatever other miscellaneous small items you might have. If you're like me and get analysis paralysis and can't decide, just buy these. You'll be happy you did.

This is a very good quality suitcase. It was the first hard case that I've bought. For the most part, I am satisfied, but I wish I had known a couple more bits of information before I purchased. If you are also buying YOUR FIRST HARD CASE, read these IMPORTANT TIPS. TIP #1: This case closes with a ZIPPER ONLY. It does not have a latch. Zipper-only hard cases are more vulnerable to malfunction because zippers can break or split apart with stress or excessive wear. If the zipper splits on this case, you do will have a latch as a backup method to keep your case closed and you may find your self in a predicament when you need to check your broken-zippered bag at the airport. Therefore, if you buy this case, be sure to also buy luggage straps. Luggage straps are extremely effective to keep your case closed and will help prevent excessive stress or damage to the zipper. When buying luggage straps, write your initials on each strap with a permanent marker. This will not only help identify your bag in a busy airport, but also make the straps less desirable for thieves. TIP #2: I bought the (very large) 28-inch version of this case because I wanted to have plenty of space to pack for long international trips. In hindsight, I wish I had bought a size or two smaller because filling up a case this big with normal items like clothing, shoes, and toiletries will almost always put you over the airline weight limits (and be very heavy to lift). The case is very light, but I can only fill it up about 75% to avoid paying the "excess weight" fees. With the case being 25% empty, I have lots of open space in the bag and my belongings bounce around inside. When I arrive at my destination, I often find my loosely packed belongings out of order and disheveled. For my next suitcase, I will buy something a tad bit smaller so I can fill 90% or 100%. When filled to 90-100%, my belongings would be tightly packed and more secure inside.

Good quality, durable and I love the color. Is small, but you can fit a lot of things inside thanks to the expandable capacity. Highly recommended.

Smooth Travel Companion with Room to Spare This Samsonite Omni PC 24-inch checked spinner hits a sweet spot between durability, style, and function. The hard polycarbonate shell feels rugged enough to handle baggage handlers without showing every scuff, and the textured finish helps hide scratches so it keeps looking good after multiple trips. The expansion zipper adds just enough space for souvenirs or that extra sweater, and the interior divider and cross-straps keep clothes relatively organized. I really appreciated how easy it was to maneuver through airports—those spinner wheels glide smoothly in every direction without much effort. The handle telescopes firmly without wobbling, and the suitcase itself isn’t overly heavy, which means I can pack it fully without worrying too much about hitting airline weight limits. If there’s one thing to keep in mind, it’s that while the 24-inch size is perfect for a week’s worth of travel, it may be tight for anyone packing bulkier winter clothes or gear. Also, the interior isn’t fancy—it’s functional but basic, so if you like lots of compartments you may want packing cubes. Bottom line: A stylish, tough, and easy-to-roll mid-size suitcase that’s a great value for frequent travelers who want a reliable checked bag without extra fuss.

Samsonite Omni PC Hardside Spinner 20, Caribbean Blue, One Size My last carry on suitcase served me well for over 12 years, accompanying me on countless trips, usually over-stuffed, through winter weather, through slush and rain and dragged across the cobble-stone streets in Berlin. In the last couple years it began to show it's age, but it wasn't until the handle finally ripped off and the inner lining tore a small hole on my most recent trip that I admitted it was finally time to move on. My initial inclination was to buy something cheap - I don't need fancy luggage, I got student loans to pay... So I was poking around and looking at options in the $30 - $40 market, and there were some that looked ok. But then I would dig into the reviews and read about them breaking on the first trip, or having stuck wheels or finicky handles... Not feeling satisfied I put off the purchase for a while. I went to a store and looked at some of these models in person, and I was startled by how flimsy they felt in person. They were not built to handle the abuse of transatlantic air-travel. Feeling ambivalent, I put off the decision yet again. Fast forward to Tuesday of this week, no suitcase purchased, my flight is Friday morning. I pull my old trusty carry-on out of storage and seriously debate taking it on one last journey... just one more time?? The suitcase does not want. So I come back to Amazon and search again until I find this suitcase. It's not super cheap, but it's not expensive either, and it has a great color, and good reviews, and it sturdy in the photos... I'm still undecided, but, well, clock is ticking, I bite the bullet. Suitcase arrived just in time for my flight :-) My roommate carried the box upstairs for me this afternoon and when I thanked her, commented on how light it was. As soon as I open it I am relieved, this is a strong and sturdy suitcase, and it looks smart. The handle is long, and slides out easily, doesn't rattle around like those other flimsier models did. Wheels are seemingly good quality. The body looks quite durable and scratch resistant, the zipper is good quality, oh and there's even a lock. It holds a lot of stuff for how small it is, and it is expandable which is helpful for people who sometimes overpack. UPDATE: Suitcase held up perfectly over 4 four flights over the holidays, on two of which it actually had to be checked because the flight was very full. Not a single scratch or dent, no signs of wear, and it was easy to travel with - rolled smoothly and easily, sturdy handle.

What can I say. Almost 6 years later, I’ve gotten some USE out of my bags. Overall, quality I can’t complain. You can pack it well, storage never an issue. Great. The bad: the wheels, terrible. I’ve had to replace the wheels on the carry on and medium because they don’t hold up. Hard to push on varying surfaces, and just aren’t sturdy.
