Travelite Roller Case 098487 Orlando 2 Wheel Trolley Small 37 Liters Blue (Marine) 82774Let's face it, the market is full of these things. Which one to choose ... ?Market leaders Samsonite and Delsey certainly offer a good range of products but their prices were way higher than I was prepared to pay.I hadn't heard of Travelite before but other reviews were good, and this one was the right size for Easyjet with whom I was due to fly. Their current maximum size for cabin baggage was 56 x 45 x 25 cm, and this case was just within that gauge. I decided to take a punt at about £30.00 Stirling.When it arrived, I was delighted with the appearance and quality, and the specification which reads as follows :* Outer dimensions - 53 x 38 x 20 cm* Construction: durable woven polymer material over stiff inner frame.* Telescopic handle.* Three further handles - top (soft), side (soft) and bottom (incorporated into foot).* Attachment strap.* 4 small feet opposite the side handle.* 2 wheels, plus foot to allow case to stand unsupported.* Slide-out luggage-label device.* Tough protective plastic trim on all 8 corners.* Zipped lined main compartment with hold-down straps and zipped false floor.* Small zipped inner pocket (good for meds).* Small zipped outer pocket with organizer (good for tickets etc).* Large zipped outer pocket (good for empty laundry bags).* Zipped mesh pocket to lid inner (good for notebook).* Two stuff-pockets to lid inner (good for emergency sustenance).On the day on my flight, I gave my case a baptism of fire - a 1.5 km walk on tarmac pavement to my local railway station. I needn't have been concerned. The little wheels didn't wear away and didn't fall off.I had made the right choice. This case was a real treat to travel with in every respect and had cost me a fraction of the price asked by those market leaders.To summarise, this case is well conceived and well made, and a delight to own. Well done Travelite!Two years later: The case has now done several trips and several wheeled kilometers, and it holding out well. I can't praise the small external organiser compartment enough. I find it useful for tickets/boarding passes, mobile phone, passport, travel notes, biro and house keys. So far, only one breakage - the inner lining's zip puller came adrift and I couldn't reattach it. No big deal - it's not generally necessary to access the space under the inner lining. The puller was simply replaced with a short length of nylon string. All other zip pullers are far more robust.I'm going to oil the wheel bearings before the case's next outing. One sounds a bit dry.Something I didn't mention originally - the handle feels a little flimsy when fully extended. I don't think it would take a lot of punishment but it's probably about average for wheeled cabin bags of this type - and hasn't broken yet. I've played with a few others, in shops, and found them all to be much of a muchness - probably better on the premium brands, but at a premium price.Aug 2019: Still looking good and going strong.

Cloth outer covering, and has a soft top. Lightweigh and easy to wheel, with plenty of room inside and the pockets.Appears to be sturdy and quite robust.B

This was a gift and hasn't been used yet so can't give full marks as to durability but so far it looks well made, compact with lots of pockets, and just what I was looking for. Looks sturdy too.

Instead of acknowledging this piece of luggage as a roller suitcase or wheeled trolly it should be emphasised how it is sized to be accepted as hand baggage to suit aircraft cabin restrictions. The ‘Travelite Roller Case’ attempts a 5-star solution for short trips.Within the overall external dimensions of 20½ x 14½ x 8 inches deep the main compartment is 19 x 13 x 7½ inches though this is increased by the lid with 2 external zipped pockets 5½ x 10½ and 10 x 12½ inches. Internally there is a somewhat loose lining, buckled restraint straps and a pocket 8 x 6 inches. Inside the lid is a 9 x 12½ inches zipped mesh pocket and 2 elasticated pockets each 6 x 9 inches.The case is manufactured in a form of polyester giving it a soft shell feature, and it is framed to allow securing of the 2-position retracting handle and robust fixing of a pair of wheels for pulling or pushing the case along. There is a carrying handle on both top and side. It is lightweight (about 6½ lbs) but overall construction appears sound, even though zips are inevitably vulnerable.In addition to considering sizes and fabrication the provision of external and internal pockets allows for practical organisation. The case is clearly designed with multiple pockets for travelling where ready access is required to items such as passport, boarding card etc. plus phone, tablet, book, toiletries etc. There is a flimsy lock and 2 keys though this is unlikely to be used on personal accompanied luggage. Time will tell but the ‘Travelite Roller Case’ offering is probably good enough to deserve a 5-star rating.

I bought this suitcase 3 months ago and I cannot praise it enough.I travel widely for my job and I go through suitcases like wildfire. I need them to be light, but not so light that they fall apart.This one has been perfect so far. It's not madly fashionable but stylish enough for work use and the colours match my back pack. It can be taken as handluggage on Aer Lingus and Ryan Air, and fits under the seat in all trains including Virgin. The telescopic handle seems really strong and I like the pockets at the front for travel documents, magazine etc. The wheels are sturdy and whilst there are only two, that means there's the maximum of space inside the case. This case is rock solid when stood upright on the platform beside you..There are two sets of straps inside, to keep your luggage secure. The carry-handle is well-padded. There's also a little zip pocket right inside - very useful for a spare stash of credit cards, money etc and great to hide your passport if you don't actually need it yet.In fact, the suitcase abounds with pockets and straps, and has a good quality zip.Time will tell but right now I'm very happy.

This is a really good case, surprisingly so given the money. Perfect size for short trips or for a child's stuff on longer trips. The wheels are sturdy, the extending handle doesn't feel flimsy, the stitching and finish is all good. Plenty of external and internal pockets and it's survived it's first air trips unscathed. Recommended.

Only used twice so far but an attractive, strong case so far. Meets hand luggage specs so you can take it in the cabin and would be nice and bright to spot on the airport carousel. Worth paying a bit extra for one that doesn't fall apart the first time you use it.

Great bag. I use it as a teaching bag to carry music. Has lots of useful pockets to carry tools and other paraphernalia. Affordable and attractive. Seems sturdy.
