TUMI Alpha Large Dual Access Expandable Carry-On Spinner

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great quality and aesthetics. Wheels are so smooth and the great for someone who loves organization.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A great carry-on: durable and steady, although a little bit on the heavy side.

Tumi makes fantastic products - durable, sturdy, good looking. This one feels a bit heavy. What can be removed to make it a little lighter. I’m still figuring out whether I like the top fill element.

Best travel piece. Very sturdy, handles and wheels are the best in the business.

I was so excited to finally upgrade my Away carry-on to a Tumi. I’ve been slowly replacing all my travel gear with Tumi because it looks incredibly sharp and is perfect for business travel. I started by upgrading my backpack, then got the weekender bag and the dopp kit, and finally decided to pull the trigger on this carry-on. On my very first time using it, the flight was full and I was forced to gate-check it. As soon as I pulled the bag off the baggage carousel at my destination, my excitement vanished and I immediately regretted the purchase. The bag looks absolutely terrible. The ballistic nylon is scratched up and every single plastic bumper is heavily scuffed. I know airline baggage handlers aren't gentle, and sure, I can blame the airline to an extent. But for how outrageously expensive this bag is, I cannot believe how poorly it handled a single trip in the cargo hold. If this bag can’t even survive its maiden voyage without looking like it was dragged behind the plane, I can’t even imagine what it’s going to look like in a year or two of regular travel. Extremely disappointed. Honestly, I wish I had just kept my Away.
