Hey all. I own the large Cabin in tarmac, and must tell you these pieces are NOT good to check-in and mingle with other luggage. Mine cracked a corner the first time out, and subsequently busted every top corner since. These are not made to take a regular beating through under-plane storage. I can only reccomend the carry-on, as you can obviously keep an eye on it.

Thank you for this !! This is my dream luggage ❤❤

I think you should do a follow up review after a few trips/field tests with over cramming, tossing around, and opening it up on a sandy scratchy floor. Will the aluminum frame still be water tight, and function after a few corner bumps and drops? How does the polycarbonate hold up over time beyond scratches and nicks? Do the handles warp the polycarbonate frame from the weight of a full suitcase?

Wow nice video. You definitely got a great video style going on! Ordered it last week since my old one broke was eying the Floyd for about 2 years now. You just gave me an even better feeling about it

Thanks! It’s a really solid option and just love how wheels are switchable

10/10 editing, great job. This was exactly the video I was looking for.

I love the color replaceable wheels is super useful and extremely useful for things like cobblestone streets in europe which murdered my suitcase when in spain

Yeah agreed. Crazy to think you can’t change the wheels on other suitcases 🤔

Hey! Could you please share thought about this suitcase now, 7 months later? I’m quite doubtful is it worth the money. And how much the carry on fits if the weight limit for many airlines is 8 kg and the suitcase is ~4 kg? How has it been holding up during your travels, how much you’ve travelling with it? Thanks if you find to reply :)

MVST Select is the best luggage brand.

Hi! I am so leaning toward a Floyd suitcase! They're so cool and unique. And they seem super practical. How is the finish holding up? I feel like one good scrape against the security belt and that shiny varnish is toast

That’s true - it’s going to get scratched, but personally I like that. The only way you’re not going to have scratches is going for a fabric suitcase. So guess it depends what’s important to you. That being said, mine is still pretty scratch free, but only used it abroad 3 times so far. Hope that helps?

Nice overview

The only reason I am hesitant to buy Floyd is the bag's weight. It only allows you 15kg for check-in luggage. How have you found this?

Honestly hasn’t been an issue for me even with camera, laptop etc. Also can’t remember the last time my cabin bag was weighed travelling in Europe. Might be different in US / long-haul I can’t remember … hope that helps 👍

Rimowa is 100 times better in terms of practicality and more importantly durability. Floyd does not survive a roundtrip generally.

Rimowa is also significantly more spenny!

Incredible editing mate, might be your best video yet! Made me want to get a better, more secure suitcase tbh 🧳
