I purchased this set for a Vacation trip where we were flying Allegiant which charges for carry-on luggage and are supposedly strict and stingy about the sizes. The bags worked great and even though the small bag is not maximized for under-seat space, it still holds a surprisingly large amount of stuff. I continued to use the set for business travel but ditched the small bag on the last trip. I could just barely get a laptop in there and it just has the one opening which makes it hard to get things in and out when it is full.

Packing for a week on the road, I can just get two pairs of pants, 5 button down shirts, 5 T-shirts, underwear, socks, a pair of shorts, two casual shirts, pajama bottoms, a pair of dress shoes, a pair of flip flops and a light jacket in the main compartment. I put toiletries in the large, outside compartment and little things like reading glasses, usb adapters etc. in the small one.

The first time I saw the bag come around the carousel I thought I was a bonafide genius for choosing an orange bag while all the suckers were sorting through a sea of black bags. Then I realized that my orange material was accumulating black streaks at an alarming rate and I didn't feel so smug.

So far it has held up well. I hold my breath when I pull the zippers tight but there is no sign of separation or breaking. The fabric is starting to show wear from the airport handling as well as the aforementioned streaks (see the picture). I haven't had any trouble with the wheels or handle.

The best thing I can say about the bag is that even when over-stuffed and with the outside pockets packed I was still able to cram it into the overhead in a CRJ700. I had to hook one wheel at a time.

Last min before flying American airlines to East rom CA, I bought this.

I didnt want to hek any baggage for my Week long trip to VA from Los Angles to see relatives first tiem in a decade for Xmas., It arrived 30 hours from order time!
I got the BLUE , no one else had this color at the airports:)

ITs size is under the allowable carry ons, by American Air.... BUT Fit more than other carry-on in leather!

In rolling carry on I Packed: full Size UGG boots, flat iron, 2 Sweatshirt Hoodies - (thick), 4 long sleeve shirts, makeup bag, 2 leg warmers , 3 skirted leggings, blouse, yoga pants, jeans, undergarments for week, contacts lenses for a week , socks, gloves, Xmas last minute gift, a full size journal on outer pocket,

In the strapped smaller personal carry on bag ( which has a back strap to piggy back over handles = one rolling unit) !T held a hardcover book, cell , charger, liquids in side-pocket, a separate clutch Black purse I packed to use as handbag!
My clutch i also had ipod, sunglasses , credit cards , money, id's, passport., in bag I put plastic container of raw veges snack (im vegan)

Rolling carry measure 13 inches, 14 in is allowed by Airlines, so its under sized BUT well made and fits more, it also has straps in in to keep stuff in place

ALL this for $39 !!!! JUST WOW,
the BEST PART is going and returning I had to take smaller plane for 1st legs of trip both to East and To LA returning, so they took all carry ons plane-side and checked them w baggage and retuned bags to us at plane door.

That's 4 times, the rolling carry-on was checked!
AND NOT ONE Mark, scuff or bend, No Damage at all !
AND $39 BUCKS!!

THERES No Carry-On id buy other than this again !
Don't Think , Get it, If your color is gone, grab any thing left,,
im thinking of buying another set as as gift. ...an Amazing Gift for under 40 and free shipping!

I flew DELTA. Even packing the bigger one completely full, it still fit in the carry on perfectly, and it was only 25 lbs.

For anyone wondering how much you can fit, I packed for a 5 day trip from a warm climate year round to a colder area.

Bigger bag: Knee high boots, 1 pea coat, 1 pr of flats, 8 t-shirts, 2 long sleeved shirts, 2 pr jeans, 1 pr pajama bottoms, 2 prs of pajama shorts, 3 pr leggings, 1 dress, 3 "nice" shirts, 2 bras, 7 pairs of socks, 7 pr of underwear, 2 belts, 3 sweaters, 2 pr pantyhose, blow dryer, straightener.

Little bag: Big book, cell phone charger, extra sweater, bag of toiletries, small purse, makeup bag, paperwork for the trip, hairbands, jewelry... I'm sure I'm missing a few things, but you get the gist of it.

Yes, the bags are SMALL, but with enough determination you CAN fit quite a lot in these.

I got it in the green color because it was the cheapest and I needed them FAST (arrived in 2 days). I'd say the color is a bit darker than the picture, but I like it. The bigger bag even came with a lock (score!).

I recommend this set to all my family and friends. I had won a blue set from an Amazon giveaway right at the time I was looking for luggage for our Christmas Vacation. It was perfect so I ordered 3 more sets, the yellow set, the purple set and the green set. The luggage is the correct carry on size and the smaller bag can fit under the set on the plane. They roll great and my kids were able to handle their own luggage. As you can tell from pictures, the smaller bag fits on top of the bigger bag perfectly.

I packed 4 pair of pants, 4 tanks, a maxi skirt, a maxi dress, a pair of sneakers and a pair of flip flops. All United airlines carry on size. In the smaller bag I packed under clothes, flat irons, toiletries, a crossbody purse and a book. The larger roller fit in the overhead without issue and the smaller 1 fit under the seat easily. United Airline checked bag price is $25 each way, I saved $20. The $30 bucks was well spent!
