Review After traveling
✿ Modern Fashionable Design✿ Wheels move so smoothly✿ TSA Friendly (Separate laptop compartment is a must)✿ Passcode lock ensures safety✿ New favoriteI recently returned from a trip where I had the pleasure of using a 20-inch carry-on with four roller wheels and a separate laptop compartment, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations in every way. The four roller wheels provided an incredibly smooth and effortless glide, making navigating through busy airports a breeze. Even when faced with tight corners or uneven surfaces, the wheels maintained their stability and maneuverability. I never realized how much of a difference having four wheels could make until I experienced it firsthand.What truly set this carry-on apart was the dedicated laptop compartment. It offered the perfect blend of convenience and security. My laptop fit snugly and securely in its own padded compartment, providing peace of mind knowing that it was well-protected during travel. The separate compartment also made it incredibly easy to access my laptop during airport security checks without the need to dig through my other belongings. It saved me time and frustration, allowing me to quickly retrieve and store my laptop without any hassle.Despite its compact size, this carry-on had ample storage space for all my travel essentials. The cleverly designed compartments and pockets kept everything organized and easily accessible. I was impressed by the attention to detail in the interior layout, as it maximized the available space without compromising on functionality. The overall durability and quality of the carry-on were exceptional, as it withstood the rigors of travel without showing any signs of wear or tear. If you're in need of a reliable and versatile carry-on with the added convenience of a separate laptop compartment, I highly recommend investing in this 20-inch gem. It's a game-changer for any traveler seeking a seamless and organized travel experience.

THE best and last suitcase!
This product is very well made and very versatile. The inner compartment is large with the opening on top, you can really stuff this bag. You can then seal the large compartment with the zipper, which gives you great access to the smaller compartment to store your tablet/laptop/documents. The case has a built in lock for added security if you can't keep an eye on your bag in the overhead bin. The roller wheels are very smooth making it very easy to maneuver. Love this bag!

Good quality but some compromises...
I got the 20 inch front pocket suitcase in the greyish blue color.Huge pluses:- beautiful grey-blue color and textured surface- sturdy shell! Strong enough for me to sit on top of and roll a bit (but I'm 110-120lb). I researched so so many suitcases online and 99% of 20" suitcases are NOT sturdy enough for sitting on comfortably. Edge case, I know, but I thought it was important to me.- The wheels are SO smooth!- unique top opening design is easier to pack than traditional clamshell designs and fits on hotel luggage racks- handle seems okay? Though I didn't test it much.- Carry on sizing! With wheels and handles I roughly measured the exterior dimensions as 22"x14"x9.5". The half inch probably doesn't matter so I'd say this is one of very few suitcases on the Amazon that actually meets carry-on sizes. (Cough cough, Samsonite carry on suitcases never meet the size!)- given the sturdiness, price point seems pretty decent but I'd be hesitant to pay more than $150 unless zipper design is fixed.I was honestly on the fence about returning because of being able to sit on it (airports don't have enough seating!) and because wheels are so good.However, I ended up returning this after a lot of deliberation. Here's why:- I really disliked the zippers and zipper pulls, and was not confident that they'd last. The weird wavy/angled design of the zipper pulls (which only makes sense for locking) made it a little hard to zip compared to straight zippers that are shorter. I would much prefer standard zippers and for the TSA lock to be on the side instead.- while top opening design is great and the size is true carry on, it comes at the cost of really tiny interior packing space. Granted, I'm used to a fabric carryon without 360 wheels, so that's not a fair comparison, but I feel like this suitcase wouldn't fit much more than a large backpack's worth.- in this particular model I did not like the implementation of the front pocket. You have to open the first compartment, then unzip again to get to your actual clothes. It just felt cumbersome and odd to me, even though I'm not constantly opening and closing my suitcase interior that much.- Not expandable, in case you need that flexibility. Probably good to have some give, but that'd sacrifice the other feature of being able to sit on it.- a bit pricey for the compromises (mainly the zipper design)- Other reviews said warranty and customer service is not good and isn't honored? But that's minor to me.TLDR - while there's a lot of great benefits, I ended up returning because the suitcase zippers don't seem sturdy, and I think I need a little more space in my carry-on than this neat front opening design allows for. That is ultimately why I will not end up buying the no-front-pocket one.It's very hard to have perfect product design and this case's innovative design comes very close, but not good enough for me. So I'm going to keep looking, and at this point I'm convinced I have to get a clamshell if I want to prioritize space :(---Update 3/25/24:I ended up with Quince's carry-on which is a clamshell and is actually cheaper than this one. Clamshell definitely took some getting used to, but when it's open I can actually prop the top half up against the wall or luggage rack so it is kind of like a top opening suitcase. It caves /flexes in a bit at the zipper when sitting on top, but I'm confident it wouldn't break that way, unlike many other clamshells (including Samsonite!).So if you think you're resistant to a clamshell like I was, just find a good quality one to try out and see if you can make it work. I've been quite happy with my Quince one, and have used it at least 4 times now.Or if you absolutely need the ability to sit on your suitcase without fear of it collapsing, and you're ok with having less packable space in your carry-on, then this Hanke case would be great for you!

Lovely Luggage!
I purchased this carryon after ordering several others and sending them back. I’m currently on my first trip with it and love it! The zippers are great, both inside and out. I like the zipper locks on the top of the suitcase. Love the extra outside compartment for easy access to iPad, computer, travel documents etc. it holds a lot and fits easily in the overhead bin, at least so far. And I love the color! All in all, so far I would definitely recommend it! Oh, and the wheels are a dream. We’ll see how it holds up over time. 😊

LOVE! Recommend for purchase.
I needed a new carry on luggage and this one met my requirements. Just used it for the first time on a round trip vacation and it did great!Pros: black is stylish and expensive looking, wheels are smooth and roll great, adjustable height handle is smooth and stays in place well, zippers work great, expander is fantastic, and the front pocket protects my laptop and book exactly as advertised.Cons: inside is small because the laptop pocket takes up some space, however I feel the inside is appropriate to the small size of the carry on.Ultimately, 10/10 recommend. Really happy with my purchase!

Love the suitcase
The suitcase has the smoothest wheels that I have ever had on a suitcase, or have ever tried in the store. The inside can hold enough for a weekend if you are not taking too many clothes and if you roll them up.The only downside is that the front that is supposed to open partway, according to how much you lower the zipper, does not open as wide as the picture shows. So it’s hard to get your hand in to take out your iPad or laptop.This is not a dealbreaker for me, because it’s a carry-on, and I will be using it as I’m sitting in a seat at the airport. So I can just unzip the zipper reach in and get what I need and sip it up again. And the same on the plane when I get on by before I put it in the overhead bin. I would definitely buy it again .

購入してよかった
拡張機能とフロントポケット機能で40L以上の物が欲しくて探していました。ネット購入は不安でしたが、作りがしっかりとしています。早速1泊使用したところ、タイヤが8輪で安定感があって斜めにして転がさなくてもスイスイ動きます。ただひとつ惜しいのは、上下に動かない方の取手が弱そうなところです。

ジッパーが閉めづらい
パソコンが入るポケットがあるのが決め手で購入しましたが、この前ポケットのマチ部分のためにジッパーが閉めづらい。カラーが可愛いのですが、最近よく見るもっと安価な商品も似たカラーリングがあるので、そちらにすれば良かったと思っています。
