Method Luggage Check-In Large

So Smooth!

Used on one trip so far and it is night and day better than my last suitcase that was the same size. I have loved everything about it, but what has stood out the most is how smooth it rolls. It is lightweight which is great, but we'll have to see how it holds up. I also love the locking zippers.

International travel lightened

My large suitcase got its weight lightened which meant 50lb international limit was easier to stuff with more things. The wheels handled the weight, easy to navigate. The ridged design lessened scrapes that my earlier case, that was smooth sided, suffered. However what I miss is the interior design of my earlier case specifically narrow inside pockets and the lacking system. Current case mimics traditional closures, x-cross straps to secure items

Great 2nd Suitcase

This is a great second checked suitcase. My wife and I travel internationally about four months out of the year. We both use the Classic Carry-On, and I also have the 30L backpack and 10L sling. We’ve been using Nomatic gear since 2019 and have only had one issue: a zipper on my 30L backpack. Nomatic replaced it less than a week before an upcoming trip, which was excellent customer service. The new Method Check-In has been a solid addition for longer trips. It offers noticeably more capacity, which is why I think it works best as a second checked bag. I may eventually get another one, but first I’ll probably buy my wife a Classic Check-In since that’s the one we always end up fighting over. The Classic just feels sturdier overall, and the tie-down straps are easier to use. The Method definitely wins on space, but with most airlines still limiting checked bags to 50 lbs, the extra capacity only goes so far. The zippers are also different between the two. Overall, the Method is good, but if your budget allows it, I’d spend the extra money and get the Classic.
