Samsonite Ascella X Softside Expandable Luggage with Spinners, Black, 2PC SET (Carry-on/Medium)

Bought this suitcase to replace an older Samsonite and like how much lighter it is. I use it for personal and business use. Easily pack clothes for a week with varying temperatures. The interior pockets work nicely for my needs. Able to organize more than I could before. Rolls like a dream. Handle is sturdy. Wheels became the issue with my old one after approx. 15 years.

I use this for travel within the US, for 3-4 day trips, even 2 weeks when staying with family. I even used it for a 10 day trip a couple times to Italy. This Samsonite is well designed, spins and maneuvers perfectly and has a zippered expansion so you can get more in! This is my 3rd one over the years. First and 2nd ones I bought (light tan, and a dark brown) were much cheaper at Marshall's retail store. Passed those down to my son then bought this one as I wanted black. This model has been modified in a good way - diffent sized pockets on outside and the compartments changed a little on the inside. Love the layout and quality.

This was purchased to replace the same make and model bag that i had used for years, but the pull out handle failed on it. This is, IMHO, the perfect carry on bag. I find that if I can get the zippers to close, no matter how much I have stuffed in the bag, that it will fit in the overhead bin of a 737 (the plane I fly most in). The wheels don't look very tough, but we will see. They don't look as beefy as those that were on my old bag; time will tell.

Bought the 20 inch similar to our old Samsonite roller bags from many years ago. Great bag - survived an overseas trip fine. Lightweight (in a good way) bag with zipper to expand the packable volume. Fits easily in overhead compartment. The only problem is that after about a year of moderately heavy use (once a month?), 1 wheel fell off. See photo. Bag still works & rolls ok but we wanted better.

We already have Samsonite luggage and travel by air a lot, which is why I went for more Samsonite luggage when we needed another suitcase to check for an upcoming trip. First, if you aren’t a well seasoned air traveler, let me tell you that the junky American Traveler suitcases do NOT hold up like these. So if you are debating brands, get this one. Second, if you are NOT debating brands and rather debating sizes, I will say I’m a little nervous about our purchase. We bought this 29” checked bag. I already had what I thought was the “large” checkable bag from Samsonite… see the black suitcase in the picture. This black suitcase can hold about exactly 50lbs when stuffed pretty full as long as you don’t go heavy on the bricks. For this reason, I absolutely loved this size. I have never had an issue with making it overweight, which is nice to not have to stress out about that. Our airline we fly with a lot has a weight limit of 55lbs and 62”. Unfortunately I must have some measuring problems, because this suitcase is a few inches too big. I’m not sure if we will have to pay extra for oversized luggage or not… In taking probably 100 flights in my life, I’ve only had an airline MEASURE (not weigh) luggage once… and it was hand luggage. And it was a maiden voyage. I think the size is very noticeable and awkward to move around. I think lifting is going to be rough. And even though we can pack 55lbs vs 50lbs, I think we wont be able to fill this very full, which is actually probably going to shorten its lifespan - getting crushed in transport etc. Fingers crossed this works out. UPDATE AFTER TRAVELING - this giant bag is great! Once again, our main airlines weight restriction is at 55lbs and we had no problems. We are getting ready to fly another airline that has a limit of 50lbs but no dimensional requirements so we are probably going to take this.

Finally decided to join the upright rolling club and I don't know why I waited so long! Love these! Been a few trips and there's a lil stuff on the big one; but nothing stays new forever. Good buy

I have been a Samsonite user for ever and all my luggages lasted atleast 10+ years even after multiple trips. The wheel broke of this suitcase on the first trip. There was no dmanage or mishandling, one side of teh wheel just came off during transit. Discovered wafter picking up luggage in airpor. Looks like Samsonite quality went down significantly

This two-piece luggage set is truly the ideal choice for any traveler. The craftsmanship is outstanding, showcasing durable materials that promise longevity and reliability. Next to my shopping list, I have my eye on the spacious 29-inch suitcase. Its size and design make it perfect for longer trips, ensuring I can pack everything I need with ease and style.
