Essential 22" 2-Wheel Expandable Carry On - Luggage for Travel, Suitcases with Wheels, Softside Rolling Bag for Men & Women, Self-Repairing Zipper - Baseline Collection, Black

This has become my goto bag for rollaboard ease of business travel. My work bag fits nicely on top of this one. This one carry's everything I need for an overnight stay. The wheels are solid and sturdy. It's a very versatile back with a number of functions for single day trip travel, to expanding carry on space along with checked luggage. Strong value.

I’ve pressed my luck over the years with a 24” case with no issues (I almost always fly First Class and FAs and GAs tend to look the other way for those of us spending the big bucks) but I’ve recently started flying out of cities that require bags to be placed in 23” bins. Obviously, a 24” bag sticks up and I knew I would get called on it sooner or later. So I’ll save my fantastic 24” bag for road trips and I bought this one for air travel. First, let me say the wheel design is incredible. It gives you an extra inch of room inside the bag compared to the 4-wheel bags. That might not seem like much, but when you are limited to 20 or 21 inches of interior space, that is as much as a 5% increase in space. It makes up half of the space I lost going from a 24” to a 22” bag. Second, I wasn’t sure about whether I’d find the garment bag feature inside useful, but I used it for a pair of dress slacks going one direction on a 4+hour flight and suit jacket jacket on the return and both came out virtually wrinkle-free. So, a winner there. I’m still on the fence about the floating insert at the bottom of the bag. I can see how it might be useful to separate clean from dirty clothes, but I use packing cubes and a dirty clothes bag, so I didn’t use it for that. i may find a use in the future. The outside pockets were of no use for me. I always carry a underseat bag anyway. I can see how the smaller pocket between the handle bars might be good for a pair of glasses. The real winner is the compression feature. I packed the bag in its extended position with a dirty laundry bag inside and just crushed it down. Viola! Legal width. Better than fighting with a zipper that breaks (I’ve seen this happen). The bag BARELY fits in a Delta overhead, wheels first, as long as you stay away from the hinges. I will have to wait to try on other carriers and in the new Airbus sideways configuration, but it should be good. All-in-all, this bag fits a LOT of inside space into a small package. It is extremely well-built, with a lifetime warranty. A winner bag.

I finally replaced an old Samsonite carry-on that had some nice features when it was no longer acceptable for overhead use in some planes, and found this as a replacement. it is crazy expensive, but has some great features for how it holds shirts and has a nice squarish size that can be easily packed when fitting shoes plus some other non-cloths items inside. The 'outside sleeve' power station holder is a nice touch, as is the little zipper pocket near the top that allows you to stash your watch/wallet etc. just before security screening. It only has 2 wheels so has to roll straight, but that is ok with me, because that is what allows the handle pieces to be outside the packing area, and provides a location for the outside power station carrier. Crazy expensive, but on 4 recent trips, 2 stateside and 1 to Europe, I saw multiple flight crew members using the identical bag, so that means it will last, or the company's warranty is good (no receipt needed for 10 years), or both. Solid build quality, and the backpack from the same company fits nicely on the extended handle, and balances very well.....no more worry about if it will all tip over. Very happy customer with a high quality product from a company that builds great products.

I travel frequently and this is the second Briggs & Riley roll aboard that I’ve owned. The first one was older and only had two wheels, so it was a bit of a drag to maneuver. This new model with four wheels is a game-changer! It moves effortlessly and can even make its way down the aisle of the plane on its wheels—something I couldn't do with my older model, which had to be carried. Briggs & Riley really makes an outstanding product, and with their lifetime guarantee, I feel confident that this will last me for many years to come. My family has started using their bags exclusively when traveling, and we love the expandability of their cases. It’s perfect for those trips where you need a little extra room for souvenirs or items you pick up along the way. Highly recommend this bag for anyone who travels frequently and wants a reliable, durable, and easy-to-maneuver suitcase.

I have traveled with a Tumi 22" roller bag for the last 21 years. It served me well, but it is now rather battered and the hard plastic parts surrounding the extendable handle and around the bottom of the case have become brittle and are now failing. Unfortunately, Tumi is no longer the company it once was, having been bought out by some conglomerate. They are no longer making bags to the same standard of quality and their prices have risen dramatically. After looking at their current offerings, buying another Tumi bag didn't seem a reasonable choice. Fortunately, I already owned a Briggs & Riley 21" Global Roller Bag which I like a lot, it just wasn't suited for travel in today's most modern jets. It is 15" wide, which is just slightly too wide to allow it to be placed on it side in the newest overhead bins. I always felt a bit guilty having to place it flat in the overhead bin, which takes up about twice the space as a bag placed on its side. Hence, my decision to purchase this 22" roller bag , which conforms nicely to most domestic carrier's size requirements, at just 14" wide. It fit's perfectly on its side in the overhead bin. This bag is beautifully constructed and very sturdy. The wheels glide through airports like a dream, and I love the ability to pack the bag, close it up, then compress the bag down to a depth of just 9". Plus it has the best warranty in the business -- a lifetime guarantee. You won't find any bag with a better warranty.

I took my first trip with this Briggs and Riley carry on. I opted for the (2) wheel as this is what I am used to. I was able to pack in a full 6/7 days of business casual clothing, extra shoes, jacket, etc. in this carry on and while it was full, it worked out great. The compressible side latches work very well. Everything seems very solid on the luggage. I was going to go with a competitor but decided not too as it seems all of their zipper hardware was failing. Not with this Briggs and Riley unit. Extended handle is solid, and the luggage maneuvered very well and fit just fine in the Overhead compartment of the Airliner. The luggage is a bit on the heavy side but I believe this is due to the solid construction. I have seen some complaints about rolling noise, but I did not notice anything unusual or loud with rolling the luggage at the airport, concrete, or other surfaces. It is a Keeper.

Holds quite a bit and does fit under the seat with no problem…you can carry another bag on it. All my luggage is Briggs and Riley and it is worth the price. They stand by their lifetime guarantee

The good — It's beautifully made and finished and would probably outlive me by many years. It's elegant and feature-rich. It has two nice, smooth-running wheels, so you can drag it a mile or two with ease, which you can't do with the 4-wheel spinners. The unacceptable — It measures a full 16 inches wide, which is larger than advertised and larger than any international airline allowed carry-on. Also (and this is my fault for not paying attention to the specs) has so many unenecessary features that it weighs almost ten pounds. It's a thug of a bag. That's more than half the Lufthansa 18-pound limit, even before you put anything in it. Most airlines have 22-pound limits on carry-ons and sometimes they enforce them. I had it back to UPS three hours after I received it.
