Travelpro® x Travel + Leisure® Compact Carry-On Spinner

Monaco Blue is for you

Love this compact carry on luggage from TravelPro. I got the Monaco blue color and it's beautiful. Love the brown leather accents. The space in the luggage is great for my 3 day business trips. I've had Samsonite luggage previously and so far I like this TravelPro luggage the most!

First Review

Went with the White Sand "International" version, so a little less space than a typical carry-on but very compact and organized. I've made it work for 6-7 day trips without expansion. Soft touch handles are also nice, as well as overall look. Have already had several compliments. Only complaint is the wheels, as even though they lock in place, they tend to wobble. . My London Fog set also has directional locking wheels but does not have this issue.

Handle gets stuck and won't fully extend when fully packed

I’ve had had this bag for several months and have taken approximately six trips with it. I travel over 20 times per year and this bag is for my wife. My other Travelpro bag is the Versa-Pack spinner. On the very first trip I noticed that the handle stuck when pulling it to the fully extended position. I assumed this was just due to it being brand new, and potentially some tight tolerances with the new plastic. We then made a couple of more trips and things were OK. However, now I’ve experienced that if there is any pressure on the handle internals, then the handle jams and you can’t move it to the full extended position. I have a video showing that the bag is not overly packed just full like you would normally do to maximize your packing space and there’s no way to get the handle to fully extend. Therefore, it’s useless, especially if it has to be packed in a certain way to avoid this issue and given the price point this sells for. I reached out to Travelpro warranty, and they recommend the handle be replaced (while I pay the S&H to send it in), but I think this is a bigger design issue that people should know about.
