7786 Hardside Expandable Luggage with Spinner Wheels, Black, Carry-On 20-Inch

My husband uses this SwissGear luggage. It’s solid and glides smooth. Plenty of space for a small luggage. The hard shell makes it more heavy duty but it is lightweight.

So this is one of those carry-on suitcases that you can expand if you need to (or stuff it full, sit on it, and then zip the expansion back full heheh) thats also hard-sided to protect the inside. Its loaded with features including shoe pockets!!! I really like it and hope to take it on more trips in the future. So far its only taken two flights and held up well both times. You can really wheel it around any way you like, and its nimble and easy to maneuver even when I had to take it with me into an airport bathroom stall. Zipper jammed a little wee bit the first time I zipped it all the way shut (no I was not sitting on it trying to overstuff it!) but zero problems since then.

This is a lightweight hard-shelled carry on that abides by most us carriers rules for carry on. It is a glossy black with matte reinforced front edges. The adjustable handle can shift between two varying heights and there is also one handle at the top if you would like to lift and carry it. The case does have two zipper closures for adjusting of the bags width, the expanding zipper gives about another inch of width. The inside has an enclosed zippered compartment that runs the length of the bag that can contain breakables or things you do not want moving around easily. There are two pocket for shoes and two other zipper compartments for miscellaneous items. The inside has the typical x elastic holder to keep your hanging clothes confined. There is also another zippered compartment on this side that would lie on top of the x when the case is closed. The four wheels each move independently and flow smoothly over carpet and hard surfaces which makes running through the airport from gate to gate that much easier. The only drawback that I can find is that there are no true distinguishing features that separate it out from the other of hundred carry on bags, the swiss gear emblem is a discreet small silver at the front. If if ever needs to be checked I would recommend putting something on it to make it stand out.

We often travel for work, short and long distances, fly or drive and typically stay in between 3-10 days range. I prefer to avoid checking my luggage most of the time, for that reason was just looking for a new reliable carry-on that is durable and provides plenty of space I need for up to 10 days of stay. This was the hit! This carry-on luggage fits well in the overhead bin, backseat, front seat, truck bed, pretty much every spot I tried to tuck it in, it fit with ease and is reasonably lightweight itself, so you are not adding more weight to what you carry. Exterior is hard material that is extremely durable and very well made.

I love the hard sided suitcase and I was the last in the family to get my own carry on. This is our 4th carry-on so it’s easy for me to compare features. This one is almost perfect in size, design, and various compartments. The only thing it is missing, in my opinion, is a built-in TSA lock. Otherwise, it’s expandable, plenty of interior pockets, and easy to maneuver.

Such a classic looking carry-on piece. Really quite roomy, offers great space and for a few nights/days of travelling. Just the right size for carrying-on to an airplane. Its really easy to maneuver with, lightweight and looks SO COOL. Looks the glossy black coloring - really sharp.

This SwissGear Carry-On 20-Inch may not stand out in a crowd because of its small emblem and basic color, but it will be a stand-out to anyone who takes a moment to notice its sleek beauty and its effortless movements. You won’t have to struggle with this expandable handle. The silver matte accents and the two reinforced bolted corners are very attractive. The material reminds me of my patent leather Sunday school shoes in the 60’s. These wheels are made for spinning and are so smooth; this could be your dance partner. The top handle feels soft like a rubber eraser and is very comfortable. The zippers are beefy, with 2 pull tabs for the main compartment two-way, and one bigger pull tab for the extended space. The only negative I can find is that when this case attracts some static dust, it’s visible because of the shiny black surface.

My wife and I are the kind of travelers who try to just take 2 carry-ons when we fly. Weve got some soft-sided expandable ones that can turn into checked baggage if we buy too many souvenirs, but airline rules keep getting fiddlier about what sizes they accept, so we thought this was a good way to keep us honest. This one expands, but not so far that it wont fit in the overhead bins.

Both my mom and my husband thought this bag was even more expensive than it actually is. It just looks and feels expensive because it’s so lacquered and sleek and nice.

This luggage was perfect for our flights with Southwest! Fit in the overhead bins. Rolls great!! Was able to wheel it down the narrow aisle of the plane with another carryon on top of it. Fit 6 outfits, 2 swimsuits and 1 PJ set for my son with plenty of room for toiletries and 2 beach towels. We placed stickers all over it. No problems with the zippers or anything. The plastic hard cover does seem to easily get scraped, but that doesnt bother me!
