Samsonite Centric 2 Hardside Expandable Luggage with Spinner Wheels, Blossom Pink, 2-Piece Set (20/24)

Used the 28" & 20" on my recent Alaskan cruise. Performed great on & off the ship, checked both bag on 4 planes, loaded in rental car, and the wheels were smooth over many different surfaces. Only found a couple of minor scratches on the 28" case. No issues with the zippers. I choose to used my own TSA lock instead of built in one. Very, very happy I purchased this Samsonite set.

As soon as these arrived I filled them up and flew off to Europe. They are lightweight and versatile, quality made. I really put them to the test and they all held up great during the 3 week trip.I liked the color options too, made them easy to spot in baggage claim.The only drawback to hard cases is the lack of outside pockets for storing easy-to-access items so bring a shoulder bag.

Love my luggage! I always wanted to own a set of the Samsonite luggage... I'm very pleased with the color & of course the durability!

I'm giving this a conditional 4-star review and reserving final judgment for after my international trip in a few months.As for my straight-out-of-box thoughts: I saved some money by buying a used set of three (20" 24" and 28") cases (listed condition was great/like new so for half the listed price I thought that was a good gamble). They came delivered in an Amazon box—not the Samsonite packaging—which was clearly noted on the sales page for the used set. They arrived as advertised: they look brand new and are in perfect condition. The three cases nest inside each other for convenient storage and are very lightweight.However, as I set the TSA lock to my personal code* I noticed how much give there was to getting the zipper handles to fit perfectly in the lock slots. I had to fumble a bit before I could lock them properly. So 1) it wasn't super easy to lock the zippers and 2) I was disheartened at the "flimsiness" of the case. There are quite a few reviews of this set that show the cases being caved in so now I understand that's a legit possibility. I'm hoping the flimsy feel is simply that polycarbonate has give (everything I've read states it's designed to be flexible and is known for not breaking) and that if something does happen in transit it will not break (and perhaps can be pushed back into shape??) Fingers crossed nothing will happen!Honestly, I currently have Samsonite carryon luggage that my family has used for about 10 years both as carryon and checked, and they are still holding up strong and look good. If I could have purchased the larger sizes of the carryons I already have I would have done so in a heartbeat.I'll update my review after I get back from two weeks in Europe which will include two long-haul flights, a short flight, a bus, perhaps a train, cabs and typical car-to-hotel sidewalk terrain.* Re changing the TSA lock code: I did not receive any instructions on how to set the lock (perhaps due to being "used"?) so I Googled it — it comes set to all zeroes; simply insert a pin in the pinhole next to the code dials and keep it held down while spinning the dials to your preferred code. Release the pin, spin the dials and then try your new code. It should open right up.

Great size! Just a TINY bit smaller than a standard carry-on; so it fits really well in the overhead bin. Great wheels. Hard shell is very protective. These are great. I’ve purchased 4!

This luggage seems to be built very sturdy. Suitcases are deep and hold a lot. Love the green!

I will not recommend this case. It is not of the quality I believe that Samsonite used to offer.Both the cases have no broken in less than a year. The first to go was the lock on the big one. The mechanism fell out as it was held together by a tiny screw.Then lately the smaller case handle got stuck and did nit want to retract. Wiggling it back and forth did the job as the airline does not accept it with the handle extended. Today it broke.And I can return it to Amazon under warranty as I have to take it to a physical store to get inspected and if they feel it is you then they will not honor their guarantee. I travel every week about. Now where must I find time to get to the closest store an hour away from me. But wait you can ship it to them on your cost.

The whole trip and back, with a layover, and the luggage is still in great shape! Looks good and not broken. What a great thing. I had purchased cheaper luggage for my last few trips and broke immediatly and were never used again. Thank you for QUALITY LUGGAGE :)
