And don’t be tricked by its compact size. It’s “deceptively roomy,” and its smart design beats “a clamshell bag [that] takes up twice its footprint.”
Promising review: “I’m an avid traveler, and about a year ago, I finally bought my first hardside luggage. I got a gorgeous Samsonite set, which got lots of compliments in airports and hotels. However, I’m a 71-year-old woman, often travel alone, and the clamshell style simply didn’t work for me. Whenever I wanted to pop a bag open to grab something, the lid, packed with clothes, was sooo heavy, I couldn’t hold it up with one hand while digging with the other.. I had to find an area large enough to allow me to open the bag all the way…laying both halves flat…to retrieve any of the contents. When I checked my bag, it was a few pounds over, and opening it and pulling a few things out was a nightmare in the crowded airport. Couldn’t use the luggage stands in the hotel rooms; I had to put my bags on the floor or lift them onto the bed in order to open them all the way. I didn’t enjoy sitting on the floor digging through my bags, nor do I like putting luggage on the bed after it’s been in the belly of a plane and on various shuttles. This Hanke just went with me to Mexico, and it was way, way easier for me to manage!! Nothing I don’t like about it, and I’m once again able to lift the lid easily whenever I need to get inside. I love the nice neutral grey-beige color. The handles and the wheels work smoothly and feel like decent quality. I really didn’t want to have to buy more luggage, but I’m so glad I did. I started with a larger bag, loved it so much, and I just got the carry-on for my trip in January. The carry-on has a compartment in the front for my laptop. Great luggage!” —GlamGalLovesStuff
