Review on Lightweight 20'' Hardside Suitcase With Spinner Wheels & TSA Lock - Hanke Upgrade Airline Approved Carry On Luggage by Leo Puente

I really like this bag, specifically because it is small enough to fit under the seat on the plane. My wife hates putting our bag into the overhead as she wants it to be easy to access to pull things out of. This has always caused me to carry a backpack, but once you stuff all your electronics and snacks into it the bag gets heavy quick. By the end of your trip you wish you took nothing onboard. With this it still holds all of our carry on items and I have no doubt it will fit well under the seat. I’ve packed the bag to ensure things fit, but won’t be taking a trip for a month or two so haven’t put it under, but it has a smaller footprint than my stuffed backpack which fits so I have no doubt at all it will fit as well.The only reason for docking it a star is due to the image posted with the product at the time of ordering not matching what is received. The image showed that the suitcase opened from the front and directly compared it to being nicer and better than those opening in the middle, as it didn’t need twice the space to access your contents. That is NOT the case, and this opens from the middle as well. I really didn’t want one opening in the middle because sitting in your seat it’s hard to open it up wide like that, and just opening the front to access a deeper suitcase would be preferred for a carry on bag. In the time I have been testing this the image has since been removed but it was advertised differently and was the reason for ordering it. Make sure you know, in case the image comes back, that this indeed opens in the middle and takes 2x the footprint when opening to get something out, so it is more difficult while on board the plane to do so.The quality of the back is excellent and I have no doubt the stuff inside will stay well protected. Even if checked for some reason the hard shell will keep your items safe from being crushed and keep it dry.
