    I noticed flight crew using this brand a few years back and bought a smaller 19” spinner, which has turned into my normal carry-on for domestic and international trips. I noticed I started to need a bit more space for longer trips, and since I’m part of Team Carry-On Only, I literally bought this same 21” three days ago. I love that it’s so light and the wheels are so smooth. In four years, the 19” still looks brand new. Glad Pack Hacker also likes this Maxlite bag!

    It looks like there is an extra inch or so of packable space between the bottom wheels. Is that correct?

    @@MoroccAnglish So far, so good. I prefer Maxlites because of their quality, and being lightweight so I can pack more, easily stow it in overhead bins, and carry it up flights of stairs or if I'm walking on cobblestone streets.

    I have the Maxlite 4 and it's my favourite carry-on luggage because it ticks a lot of boxes, namely being lightweight and expandable. The wheels on my Tumi and Briggs & Riley disintegrated during the travel ban in 2020-2021 but not my Travelpro

    Looking at the comments/ratings on Amazon I found an abundance of negative ones regarding the handle quickly being stuck and the wheels deteriorating. They all were dated within the last year. I know the comments are subject to manipulation and wonder if fans of this site have had different experiences recently. Thanks.

    I used this luggage for about two years. This is a FANTASTIC review of this piece of luggage. Highly recommend especially for those who are on a budget. The light weight of this piece is also very light. I have since switched to a different company but I recommend this to lots of travelers. You can find a compression topper that is designed for a different Travel Pro piece but it does work for this to help with those compression straps not always working great for packing cubes. I would also agree that I never liked the handle and it moving. It created a lot of stress on my wrist which I didn’t like.

    Phenomenal reveiw, I am actually on a trip and my Samsonite luggage handle broke I had to carry all my luggage through the airport(s) which was pretty lame I ordered this off Amazon through pinch (sorry I saw this reveiw after I purchased otherwise would of used your affiliate link 😢) I travel alot and looking for a new brand the two past Samsonites I have ordered have both broke everyone speaks highly of them but I think they are junk or don't travel enough to relize that. Thanks for the detailed review looking forward to not carrying all my luggage back home. Wanted to make sure to like and leave a comment for the algorithm, thank you very much!

    Leaning towards being interested in travelpro suitcases, but am a bit disappointed that there aren't any TSA locks already on the suitcase. Are there any alternatives suitcases that closely match this one but have TSA locks included?

    Foreign airlines and some U.S. budget airlines may have a problem with the size. They tend to be stricter than the large, domestic carriers.

    I loved this line until I needed to replace the wheels, it was after warranty, and the way they are designed makes it almost impossible to do yourself. They have instructions on their website that don't apply to the maxlite. There's no interior zipper so you can't get the wheel off without cutting the interior lining, unlike other models. Very disappointed because I wanted this to last.
