Lite-Shock Spinner Check-in Suitcase, 69 cm

This case is the perfect size for 1-2 weeks. It’s super lightweight and easy to pack. The materials feel strong and of good quality. I used for 11 days in Japan and travelled between a few internal destinations. The case went in/on all the train luggage racks no problem. The handle would have been better with two connecting bars, as it does twist a bit sometimes but I guess that might ruin the aesthetics and really not a big issue. When it’s not packed you can easily lift with one finger. Very happy with purchase, and would highly recommend.

I've now bought the 81cm, 73cm and 69cm cases. I've used Samsonite for about 10 years previously and love the robustness - and the fact that if something breaks, they fix it (twice now). I upgraded to these because of weight. I live by two travel luggage rules. 1) If you can't fit it into one case (airline weight allowance considered), you're doing something wrong. 2) Obeying rule 1, it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it! So in short I travel "light" but not light. So many evenings before a trip I've weight my case and had to shave some weight off or wonder "How much leeway do they give you at check-in? Is 10% too much?). I can honestly say, these things are ridiculously light. I literally have supermarket bags for life that are heavier (empty)! OK I've exaggerated there but not by much. Seriously though, since owning these, I've never had that pre-flight dilemma over what to dump. If you're a regular traveller these are for you. They're bloody expensive if you're not, but even then, if money is no object, go for it. Every now and then you take a chance and buy something functional that exceeds expectations, and this/these are one of them. Light and worryingly flexible but seemingly very robust. They zoom round the airport with the turning circle of a London taxi. After 4 long haul and 3 short haul trips in less than a year, they're surprisingly pristine. Yes they're expensive and for many would not represent value for money. For me, they just about deliver that too. Especially when I recall the time I was charged £50 by Tui for being 1.2kg over my allowance.

Love a Samsonite case!

I had the older version of this case for just over ten years. It quite literally traveled the world with me, and wore more battle scars than any case I've ever know. Various airport baggage handlers had tried their best with it, and sometimes I retrieved it from baggage carousels with huge dents that would just push out. It had a great life, achieved amazing airline miles and looked fantastic. Then one day, packing up to return from the US, the handle jammed. It would go all the way in, but not pull out. The mechanism had broken, given up. It was no longer possible for me to trundle my suitcase in any easy way, and sadly I realised that it was time for it to retire. He's not been dumped, just relegated to the loft as storage. So this lite-shock is the replacement. It's been to the US, Belgium and Dubai so far. Just as good as the old one - but with one massive improvement: Silent wheels!

Our Samsonite suitcase - purchased here - has not seen that much usage but somehow the locking mechanism has jammed and does not respond to the digital code anymore !! Where / how can I get this fixed ? Beyond disappointed as this is sold as a superior brand and had expected so much more ! The case looks lovely and is exceptionally light but without being able to confidently close it up - it’s useless !!! I live in Surrey so any help would be appreciated - so far Samsonite have not been at all helpful by just telling me to take to any retailer - nobody will touch it ! HELP ! This was supposed to be an investment piece …..

This is the lightest and easiest case I have owned. I’ve struggled to use the lock on it but have put a small lock myself, thought it felt flimsy but it is not. Because it’s light you can fit more clothes in the case, it might be a bit more expensive than other cases but in my opinion it’s well worth it.

Bit Expensive, but very light and Manoeuvrable. Probably not the strongest or most durable. Ideal for holidays when you want to make the most of your baggage allowance.

Brilliant suitcase and good price

Très contente de cette valise achetée en XL qui est vraiment super légère. La différence de poids est notable pour cette valise et permet et puisqu'il s'agit d'une valise de grande taille ce point est non négligeable lorsque l'on doit suivre la limite de 23kg imposée par les compagnies aériennes. Les roulettes fonctionnent bien. La poignée rétractable semble solide. L'intérieur est bien fini. Pour le moment je ne l'ai utilisée qu'une seule fois mais j'en suis très contente.

product is not a good quality

Rubber bending is torn in 1st voyage itself. The wheels are not performing well when weight is not more then 23kg.

Kosmiczna walizka, 2,5 kg wagi, jakość wykonania perfekcyjna.

Good product and seller. Will highly recommend
