Review on 20-Inch Jet Black Hanke Upgrade Carry On Luggage With Front Laptop Pocket, Rolling Suitcase With Spinner Wheels And TSA Lock, Aluminum Frame PC Hardside Travel Luggage For Women & Men by Patrick Keita

This is a good hard-shell carry-on suitcase. I do wish it were 22x14x9, which is what all the airlines are telling me is the maximum size of a carry-on. It does fit the 22x14 just fine, but it's just barely over 9" deep. I did take multiple flights with it on several different airlines in summer 2022 and never had any issues.It's my first hard-shell suitcase and my first 4-wheel suitcase. The 4-wheel "spinner" thing seems fine, though personally I think I'd prefer a little more interior room and would settle for only 2 wheels. The Wirecutter recently said they now prefer 4 wheels, so I'm happy to give it a try.The hard-shell thing makes it a little more awkward in one way, which is that when you unzip the opening you're really opening a large hole which takes up most of one side of the hard shell, rather than opening the entire side. So the inside cavity is larger than the hole you use to access it. This seems awkward to me. Maybe the benefits of a hard shell are worth it.I will say that one consistently useful benefit of the hard shell is that you can sit on the suitcase when it is standing up on its wheels. This came in handy for us several times.The inside is pretty spacious.The laptop pocket seems fine. The zippers have a good feel. The passcode/TSA-lock thing (which locks the zippers in place) is not something I ever predict using personally, but it's reasonably unobtrusive.In summary I think it's likely to get the job done. It remains to be seen if I'm fully convinced of the benefits of 4 wheels and a hard shell, but I'm happy to give those a try. I wish they would have shaved off a fraction of an inch to ensure it really fits in 22x14x9, but experience suggests it's close enough.
