For durable luggage that's in hard cases it seems about on-par. It would be expensive if it was the cheaper fabric type ones that aren't durable. I carry a lot of tech usually so I gotta opt for these harder ones.

I spent some time choosing my new luggage and stumbled upon that manufacturer.
Despite having that high rating, please note that all reviews were made right after the baggage arrived and it's hard to find a review after a trip. In addition, they had a promotion offering discounts for those who post a video review; taking all that into account I decided to choose another brand

Leaving a review as an owner of Away luggage - looking at the photos from this manufacturer, every detail looks very similar to Away, like it was produced on the same factory. I'll buy one and see how it compares in person.

I was about to buy an Away with my Amex credit, but he price was just way too high to justify even after $100 off. Furthermore, The Verge's story about the micromanaging CEO (and co-CEO who just stood by and did nothing) turned me off hard from Away (and by extension, Warby Parker). The story is here https://www.theverge.com/2019/12/...-inclusion

If you are not a fan of SJW topics just ignore the beginning but read towards the end. It was a real jaw dropper.

GoPenguin looks interesting since it appears to be a hardware copycat. I wonder how good the warranty is though, anybody know?

I'm seeing $87.98 for the 26" one after the $10 coupon code and code "JenLefforge22"(watched some lady's youtube review, and that code was in the description lol). There might be better coupons out there.
