This is the largest suitcase I've ever owned. Now with two babies and my wife, we want to carry fewer bags on trips and just stuff everything into one suitcase. I think this should do the trick - it is big. The wheels are very smooth and I can't wait to take it on a long trip.

The matching 21" spinner carry-on looks great with this 29". I compared these two to the Costco deal which is a 27" and 21" Samsonite DLX for about the same price as what I paid for the 29" and 21" Atlantic. I like the Atlantic much more based on initial impressions.

At Costco the display suitcases look beat up already and you can see lots of scratches on the vinyl covering the bottom wheel wells. With this Atlantic, there is no vinyl to be sctratched and gouged - just plastic covering and the nylon. Also, the nylon on this Atlantic looks more durable and thicker.

The other feature I really like about this Atlantic are the front pockets. They have two zippers to close the pocket, so you don't have to open the entire pocket to take something out - this could save your stuff from falling out vs. the design of the Samsonite.

I will update this review if anything bad turns up on this suitcase, but until then it seems like I found the best value for a large suitcase, plus it looks very nice.

I started with the carry on Altantic suitcase and I loved it, so I bought two of the 29 inch. They are large, durable, lightweight, and swings around smoothly. I travel often and will be picking up another one! Has nice pockets on inside as well. Worth the extra bit of money to get something that will last. I have taken the 21 inch Altantic suitcase up and down the stairs in the underground of London and through Disneyland with the kids and the case survived great!
