Travelpro Platinum Magna 2-Softside Expandable Spinner Wheel Luggage, Olive, Checked-Medium 25-Inch

I love TravelPro suitcases. I have been using them for years and find that they combine style, durability, usability, and value.Recently, I had to replace my 20+ year old 22", black rollerboard. It was shabby and one of the seams was needing repair. The wheels and handle however still worked. I decided to size up to a 25", which cannot be carried on, must be checked but is the size we use the most these days.This is my first spinner. Up to now I had favored rollerbboards thinking that the two partially embedded rubber wheels were less likely to be knocked off or damaged while traveling. We shall see what develops with these four highly maneuverable smaller wheels. This case is extremely easy to wheel around.The Marsala Red is a gorgeous deep burgundy! Will see how quickly it gets shabby.

This is everything all the most positive reviews say it is: handsome, light, well-made, smooth-rolling, spacious. Haven't had it long enough to say how durable it will prove to be. I've had no trouble with its rolling where I want it to or tipping. This replaced a 21- or 22-inch bag and it seems almost too large for me, can be heavy when fully packed.

Traveled throughout Europe for 3 weeks with this bag. Over tough terrain, hotels, streets, trains etc. AWESOME, never had an issue and was super easy to roll. My wife had a Samsonite which really illustrated how much better this unit is. The Samsonite constantly was a battle and the handle would flex significantly when under pressure, which was often since it would never roll properly. The Travel pro handle was rigid did not show any flex under load, and operated smoothly all the time. If you have traveled through Europe you know you will likely be pushing your suitcase down cobblestone streets at least once. That is the test of a great suitcase. This model was awesome. So happy I sold my Tumi carryon and bought the smaller carry on version as well

Great suitcase, rolls extremely well, spacious. Unfortunately, within the first couple of uses, a zipper on the front compartment broke off completely, making it unusable. Have had this bag less than six months, so not a good testament to the quality. Hopefully this is an anomaly, and I am initiating a warranty claim now, which I’m hoping will be addressed promptly by TravelPro.

We needed to replace our more than 20 yr old luggage ( too large for current TSA rules) with newer and up to date conforming luggage - this spinner was perfect for what we needed - I was able to unzip the suiter part which gave up more room but really had enough even with it in the suitcase. It is virtually indestructible and better than those flimsy "hard shell" suitcases which we saw had damage to them as they came off the luggae belt in the claim area - DON'T but one of those as this case felt as light as those when I was in the store looking for new luggage - the price we paid was much lower than in a big box store. I feel that this case will last as long as the previous TravelPro case I had for over 30 yrs and gave away to a friend who needed a small carry-on for a short trip.

After enjoying the features and durability of the Magna 2 spinner carry on, I needed to replace my larger suitcase. I tried to match colors, but the red is prohibitively more expensive if you can find it. I tried a Platinum Elite, but the Magna 2 handles and fabric are far superior. I’m cruising twice this summer and love the suiter (dress) holder built as a part of the bag, no second crappy piece. This is the perfect size for long trips while being maneuverable.

Have used this on several international flights and it still looks brand new. Also like fact that the stickers that airports and hotels apply to outside are easily taken off. Use packing cubes in this and they fit uniformly in this case. It rolls very easily and the leather handle looks good. This does not have locks. I returned many supposed luggage pieces of this quality where the locks broke as there was not enough support for integrated locks on bag this large.

This bag is a gamechanger. I dealt with terrible luggage for the past decade or so and had become fed up. I travel fairly frequently and wanted to invest in a bag that would last and that would perform well throughout. After reading reviews on the Wirecutter, I decided to give this bag a go. What I love about this bag is that they really paid attention to detail. The materials used are really nice, the zippers are solid metal and are comfortable to use. The handles are sturdy and don't feel like they'll fall apart. Rolling the bag throughout the airport is a breeze whether you pull it behind you or push it in front of you. I also love the warranty that covers damage from the airlines poor handling of the baggage. I don't think I'll have to use it, but I've heard the horror stories.
