Review: Good luggage at a good price - I took this with me as my primary suitcase on a trip to Thailand. It is not too large, reasonably spacious, sturdy, reasonably priced, and lightweight. What more could I ask for?
Review: Lightweight but well-built - Note: The color selection when I purchased this bag (and as of this writing, still on the website) says the bag is "Slate Green", but it is actually black. The manufacturer mentioned in the Q&A that this bag does not come in green. The exterior overall dimensions for the International Expandable Rollaboard are: 21.5" x 15.75" x 7.75", which equals 45 linear inches (55x40x20cm = 115 cm). This fits the current carry-on requirements for many airlines. The interior dimensions are 20" x 15" x 7.75", and the weight is 5.4 lbs. The label says the volume is 45 liters. I already own the Osprey Ozone 18"/36 L Wheeled Luggage, Black that I LOVE as a carry-on, but, but I wanted another bag that would fit most carry-on requirements but also be sturdy enough to check it. (The Ozone is really well made, but because the shell is soft (like a backpack), things inside might get crushed.) The Travelpro bag looks like it will be perfect. It seems very sturdy and well-built, including the well-padded fabric handles on the top and side. The wheels also look very solid. The expansion section is a nice feature, although using it may exceed size requirements for a carry-on for some airlines. Nice for having a little extra space if that's not an issue. Besides the main opening for the interior, there is a large outside zippered pocket that is the full length of the top flap (I don't have a laptop, but it looks like it would probably hold up to a 17" laptop), and also a smaller zippered compartment that is about 6.5" deep. Great for keeping your boarding pass or anything else you want quick access to. The interior is a light-colored plaid fabric, which I prefer to black since it's easier to see things in it. There's a large mesh pocket on the top flap, and a small interior pocket on one side of the main compartment. This particular piece also comes in a "spinner" version Travelpro Luggage Maxlite 5 International Expandable Spinner Suitcase Carry-On, Black , which has 4 wheels on casters instead of the 2 inline wheels. I know a lot of people like spinners because of the ease of pushing them around in any direction, but I chose the rollaboard over the spinner for several reasons: casters are more likely to get broken than inline wheels, I don't have to worry about my luggage rolling away if I'm on a slope, and I find the 2-wheeled bags easier to control over uneven surfaces. But most important, for the same exterior height, rollaboards have more interior space than spinners because of the extra space required for casters. As a comparison, the interior dimensions for the spinner model are 18 x 15 x 7.75, which is 2" less in height than the rollaboard. That's a difference of about 232 square inches, and in a small bag, every little bit helps. Plus the exterior dimensions for the spinner are actually slightly bigger than the rollaboard, at 21.75" high instead of 21.5" high (same width/depth). That makes the total linear measurement of the spinner 45.25", which slightly exceeds some airline maximums of 45".

## Features

- DURABLE & ECO-FRIENDLY: Made from stain-resistant polyester with a water-repellent DuraGuard coating and ergonomic, high-strength zippers for lasting durability. The interior lining is crafted from recycled plastics for a sustainable touch.
- EFFORTLESS MOBILITY: 2 inline skate wheels ensure smooth rolling in any direction. The lightweight PowerScope Lite handle with stops at 38" and 42.5" and a contour grip offers comfort and control.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lightweight, packs a bunch! Buy on a deal
*by W***R on January 6, 2026*

This is definitely one of the most lightweight rollers I have seen. But it can pack a lot, especially if you use the expandable zipper. I can vouch for it since we used on international flights where they weigh your carryons too. The fabric has a give to pack more if needed, especially ow when the airlines are charging for check ins. The 2-wheel versus 4-wheels, gives more room to pack. Only problem is when the suitcase is not fully packed, and you are pulling it along, it can flip to the side. Upside: the wheels are big and roll on different surfaces better and also easy to change with spare parts available for this brand. The handle is easy to extend and pack, almost too easy. One trick I learnt, pack heavy items towards the bottom. It may not be as bulletproof as another brand which airline crew prefer, but is good enough for us and the price is also good.
