So I’ve been a flight
So I’ve been a flight attendant for about five years and I’ve had the tumi 4 wheel the travel pro flight Crew 5 and I did extensive research on one of the best Crew bag amongst flight attendants and pilots and I decided to go with Briggs and Riley… the garment compartment specifically for my uniforms and the lifetime warranty is what sold me… I’ve had it for about a month now it’s sleek, it’s durable no complaints so far!

Sturdy, well-made suitcase but very heavy.
The suitcase is very sturdy and well-made; however it is very heavy empty. I travel every week for business and while I like the suitcase, I ultimately went back to my much lighter TravelPro. By the time I packed the suitcase, it was almost too heavy for me to hoist in the overhead bins. The side handle and the zippers are also on the opposite sides of the suitcase which also made it harder to get in the overhead on the plane. I'll keep the suitcase for back-up but the weight is just too much for me for weekly use.

Quality but super heavy
I purchased this bag on advice from Kit Dillon at Wirecutter. He’s a big guy who seems to think all travelers are also big guys, but we are not. I am 5’3” 112# 73 yr old and female — he has no concept of reviewing anything that will work for someone like me. This thing is really, really heavy when compared to, say, the Antler soft side. Getting it in the overhead bin when full is a recipe for a sprung back and neck. I travel solo often for work and adventure and always first class, and this one is an unforgiving, unmanageable (dare I say it?) ugly monster. Also I found the much vaunted compression to be oversold: it’s super finicky and sometimes releases on its own, a disaster waiting to happen on the road. I get that it sounds good but my recommendation is that if you are not a 6’2” 200# 30 yr old male, there are much better choices for you. I returned it for refund tout de suite, the ease of which was the best thing about the transaction.

Superb Quality
The construction and design of this carry-on is fantastic. Well thought out practicality and function. Outstanding materials were used. It looks great and professional. Love the blue color!

Solid and dependable
I took this to Mexico for a trip through Oaxaca and Mexico City. Of course, there was an unexpected checked bag situation, and I knew my Briggs and Riley would perform admirably. Sure enough, it landed in Oaxaca looking great, with all my belongings in place and in one piece. It took on cobbled streets without a problem, and looked stylish doing it. The wheels are solid, and I felt that I had made a great, buy-it-once purchase. Thanks! Love my luggage!

Not as good compared to older models of same case
I've had a BR 22" roller for almost 30 years as well as a larger, expandable roller for at least 15 years. Both have been used extensively and have served me extremely well. BR has always lived up to the obligation to make repairs without exception. I recently bought two more 22" rollers as gifts. They are not the same. The construction is lighter. You can't get your hand comfortably under the carrying handle, and the expandable feature is very weak, i. e. it can be compressed without retracting the latches.

Great deal on Luggage
I recently punched a Briggs & Riley 2-wheel carry-on, and found it to be as advertised; maneuverable, durable and has a lifetime warranty. Just what one would expect from a well respected company. After shopping around I found that Macy,s prices. on luggage, were unbeatable. Thank you Macy's on your low prices.
