Reviews

I already own one of

"I already own one of these, and got this for my husband who also has to carry around a laptop and a good deal of books and printed material. It has a nice laptop space , a little outside pocket, an inside mesh flat pocket and then a big open spot. It has the most interior space of any of any small rolling bag we have found because it does not have a lot of compartments. Empty it is lightweight. We use them for work, not to travel. It is sturdy and mine has lasted years."

Linda P. (5/5)

It fits

"My goal was to find the largest rolling under seat suitcase that would really fit under a seat. This one does fit. I put it underneath the seat in front of me on a 737 with the control box also under the seat. Because it’s from travel pro you also have 100 days to use it to decide if it works for you which I think is a fabulous warranty. My only complaint is that I don’t like the Velcro on the size of the opening panel as they’re just in the way. Also, the outside pocket is very tight. Enough for a passport and not much more. However, if you’re looking for a rolling suitcase that fits under the seat that gives you maximum volume I would recommend this."

Joel B. (4/5)

Love it better than previous models

"Light and extra long handle makes it so easy to pull. Love the clam shell opening. As flight attendant for 40 years even when they give us free luggage I always go back to travel pro"

Elizabeth M. (5/5)

Unwelcome changes to an old favorite

"The whole bag is smaller than my old one and won’t hold as much. The new little outside pocket seems useless."

Margaret S. (4/5)

A great bag!

"In my sales career, I have been through all the trends. Hard sided briefcases to leather carrier satchels to backpacks. After multiple broken straps and torn fabrics and a sore back/shoulder from airport gate to gate adventures, something had to change… I always seen pilots and flight attendants walking carefree through airports with luggage in tow. I have always had TP suitcases but never the roller briefcase. GAMECHANGER! During a recent NYC business pleasure trip combo, my TP zipper failed after 4 years of lots of trips. A trip to Macy’s Time Square, not finding this exact bag and the salesperson attempting to sell me on a $500 replace bag from a different brand. While some of the features were nice, in no way was worth 4x the cost. Replacing my TP $120 roller after 4 years of hard road use and abuse, was a no brainer! Highly recommend this bag for the road warrior sales person, office in a box! It is a must buy!!! Thank you TP for great products like this!"

Joseph M. (5/5)

It’s a nice size but

"It’s a nice size but do not care for the Velcro on the sides, I already ruined a top because of the Velcro sticking to it. Rolls nice, front pocket very small, really can’t hold anything in it. Made well."

April D. (3/5)

"Perfect size for carry on and strapping onto my larger suit case."

Leigh (5/5)

Zipper broke on first use

"The zipper broke on my first use as I was packing for a trip."

stacy s. (2/5)

"Sturdy, well built, and just the size I need to carry #ProfessorEssentials! The wheels roll effortlessly, and the handle is easy to adjust to the right height for comfort. I am very satisfied with my purchase!"

Alice (5/5)

"Very good bag to support other small bag and plenty of storage. Been using Travelpro for over 30 years. Still going strong after logging about 5 million miles."
