Travelpro Maxlite 5 Softside Expandable Upright 2 Wheel Carry on Luggage, Lightweight Suitcase, Men and Women, Slate Green, Carry On 22-Inch

Well made! Light. So far no problems with wheels breaking off. Can fit in surprising amount of clothes if you use compression cubes or vacuum bags.So far so good and I would say is good purchase yet have only had for about 6 months or so and only for 3 or 4 trips. I would like the bag to hold up for quite a bit more before I would give it a perfect score. Yet again, really good bag at this juncture…

I was looking for a rollaboard that fits international / European dimensions and it fits that requirement. Took it on two international trips so far and quality is holding up very well. The two wheel instead of spinner had a much bigger capacity. Traveled carry on only, therefore capacity and rollability was very important to me. A bit more expensive than other but worth the quality and lightness.

I’ve schlepped through terminals, sprinted for gates, and stacked this bad boy in overhead bins without a single crack or complaint. The Travelpro Maxlite 5 is essentially my travel sidekick:🧳 Featherweight champ: It’s surprisingly light, so I can pack more shoes (priorities, am I right?) and still hit weight limits.🧳 Expandable genius: Thought I’d just overpacked? Nope—it expands to fit every souvenir I didn’t know I needed. Crisis averted.🧳 Smooth operator wheels: These babies glide like butter—making lugging 45 pounds through cobblestone streets feel oddly stylish.🧳 Durable softside body: Stands up to airport conveyor belt assaults and last-minute travel drama. My suitcase is tough, kinda like me… but with fabric.🧳 Smart compartments: The interior pockets and straps make folding clothes look legit, even if I’ve just rolled my underwear into a ball (again).Bottom line: If you want luggage that’s reliable, expandable, and downright easy to wheel—even from gate D14 to E2 running late—this is the one. My Travelpro hasn’t just survived travels; it’s thrived, and so has my sense of vacation zen.

Love this carry one. It is SO LIGHT. It looks elegant and business like. And it packs a lot of clothes.Only dislike: The roller handle has an ergonomic curve to it that is nice for your hands , but can make it difficult to slide a backpack over it.

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".
