RocklandFashion Softside Upright Luggage Set, Expandable, Black, 2-Piece (14/19)

I purchased the owl pattern for my 5 year old and the giraffe pattern for my 11 year old for a trip to grandma's this coming summer. After arrival, I inspected the pieces thoroughly and found them to be well made. The goal is to take only a carry-on and a personal bag each so we don't have to pay extra luggage fees. I did a pre-packing run to make sure how much we could fit inside and I was very happy.... So happy in fact, that I decided to order a set for myself too. I pack by laying out my pants and shirts on top of each other, folding them in half, and rolling them together. I find that I fit far more in my bag that way. Here is what I fit inside the main area for myself without expanding the zipper for the extra 2 inches of room:2 pairs of jeans3 pair of mid calf capri pants5 shirts1 dress3 bras5 underwear1 pair sandals1 pair dress flats1 pair Nike running shoes1 swimming suit1 beach cover-upIn the small outer pockets I packed:5 pair socks3 camis1 slipIn the smaller personal bag, I fit my 11 inch laptop in the large front pocket.In the main area, I fit the following:make-up, curling iron, deodorant, toothpaste, electric toothbrush with its charger, phone and charger, travel size wet wipes and Kleenex packets, wallet, keys, snacks and a water bottle.There is a zippered long narrow pocket on the other side of the personal bag that is the perfect size in which to put your boarding pass. There is also a nice wide strap to loop over the handle of the carry-on so both bags can be pull transported through the airport.I rolled the bags all around my house on carpet and hardwood to test the wheels. They functioned smoothly. I parked the bag free standing and fully packed. It remained upright. Some reviewers have said their bags tipped over when packed. Maybe it depends on what you have inside and how it is packed.I fly Delta and the fee for checked bags is $25 each way so a round trip would cost $50. You are allowed one carry-on and a personal item for free. I paid $29 for the owl print set, $35 for the giraffe print set, and $29 for the solid purple set I bought for myself. I know these will last many trips for my girls and I so it was definately worth the pittance of a price for these new luggage sets. I come out $1 cheaper after tax and with my free prime shipping ordering all of these than I would have to check 2 bigger bags. I packed enough clothes for each of us for a week. I actually could fit two weeks worth of clothes for my 5 year old since her things are smaller. We are staying 3 weeks at grandma's house so we do laundrythere. I'd much rather have the pretty new luggage for the price than to pack extra clothes and pay for the bag fee. The way I figure it, even if we buy extra stuff there that won't fit on the way back, it's cheaper to mail it back in a priority mail one rate box than to pay luggage fees. I am very happy with my purchase and think you will be as well.

Great set of soft carry-on luggage with included accompanying shoulder or hand bag. High quality items that are an exceptionally good value. Smooth-turning wheels, convenient collapsible handle. Very easy to maneuver and it's within carry-on size limits. Nice dark purple color, which both looks good and makes the luggage stand out from the usual crowd of black luggage. I like everything about it.

I’ve used this set maybe 10 times now and here are my takeaways:Pros:*Very durable*Solid zippers*The smaller bag fits easily under airplane seats even when full*The roller bag meets most size requirements for carry-on luggageCons:*The roller bag doesn’t stand up on its own so I always have to hold it or lean it on something which is a little frustrating*the wheels on the roller bag are LOUD. I get a lot of stares and sometimes end up carrying the bag out of self-consciousnessOverall it’s a very good set for the price but it’s probably better for road trips than flights. I mostly travel solo so the roller bag not standing up on its own isn’t a major dealbreaker but I imagine it’d be a huge hassle for someone traveling with kids.

I bought this set in 2022. I just today dropped it at Newark Penn station. It fell down a flight of stairs and zero damage. I have used this set many times and it is solid. I came back tonight to review it because it holds up. The handle still snaps up and down just fine, the wheels still soon perfectly fine. The zippers are great. I love this little set. It's been my buddy for awhile now. I got the black and white check. It looks fine, holds up great, fits everywhere I jam it and I can fit a weeks worth of clothes in it. The price was remarkable too!

The zipper is a little stiff; I'm going to put some WD40 on it. It works fine. Just the right size.It is light weight. I've taken them on a few trips (air and car), think they will last. Not crazy about the color but loved the price. It only rolls forward but again look at the price.
