I got one - got sick of my PC one getting scuffed up and losing the paint job. Nylon one do ok - all the travelpro ones use it. It's the wheels that's the important bit.

Yeah, I'm sure the wheels on this one will do fine for the first couple of trips, but one hard hit on a curb or other obstacle and the wheels on a $24 bag may give out right there. Better hope you're not at the far end of some terminal needing to traverse a long distance with a wheel or two hobbled.

Yep, tho this one is better than the others with surprisingly 8 wheels so some risk mitigation. My travelpro wheels did chip and fall apart but didnt collapse, so noise and vibration is the first warning. I was even able to replace those wheels. For $24 I can go thru 5x of these for each good one that lasts 5 years.

Edit: I bought this and the 25" hardside ones with hinomoto wheels and I think they both have hinomoto wheels the design and smoothness is exactly the same except the softside wheels do not have labels and the hardside ones show hinomoto Japan.

Sold out - note wheels are likely hinomoto Japan like the hardside ones
