They're durable but will scruff up from normal wear and tear. You can buff it out with the cleaning sponge that comes with it for most scratches though. None of these suitcases are truly scratch resistant especially if they are aiming to be lightweight.

Beis warranty is really bad. Monos and Away have lifetime warranties for the life of the purchaser but beis warranty is for the “reasonable life of the luggage” which is who knows how long. I emailed back and forth with beis and they could not answer how long the reasonable life of the luggage is. Basically their “lifetime” warranty can expire whenever beis feels like it which is so misleading and sketchy!

Monos, Away, July, Beis (probably more) are all made by the same company for different vendors. I have both July and Monos, other than a few slight differences both are identical. They come in identical fancy cardboard boxes with a nice luggage dust/scratch cover when not in use. 3-5 different companies, same luggage, same team and from my experience, the same crappy customer service. Better off buying something from Ross department store for a 3rd of the costs. JMO.

I have both Away (carry on) and Monos (checked). From my experience the Away is far superior. I've traveled on at least 50 flights with the Away and it looks like new. We did a single domestic flight with the Monos and it is trashed. It scuffs and scratches very easily. In the same flight we checked a cheap Samsonite bag and it did not suffer the same date so can't chalk it up to baggage handling. Other reviews of terrible customer service are very true.

Is this promo code for Monos or Away? Do you have an Away promo code?

Possibly, it could be region locked. I've seen that with other promo codes too. It was working when I last checked though.

Holy s*. I had to speed up your video to 1.5x speed. You take so long to say what needs to be said.

Lol my video is actually shorter than most of the similar carry-on comparisons. Thanks for watching Philip.

Geeez dude, bias much.

Lol this was just my experience. Most videos never pick a true winner when comparing. They're both good though don't get me wrong, I just felt Monos was better in certain categories.

Horrible product and customer service. Overpriced, not durable. Do NOT buy MONOS.

Thanks for sharing your opinion

dude, you failed to show the most important aspect of a luggage, how the wheels work and thus their quality. All you did was fiddle with them. No one tests wheels by fiddling with them. Even a child knows that.

Thanks for watching 😃. If the wheels had any issues. I would've called them out. I think they're great for both luggages.
