Wheeled Duffel, March 15, 2010
This review is from: High Sierra 26-Inch Drop-Bottom Wheeled Duffel (Apparel)
Well, this unit came and I was very happy with its looks. It looked rugged, with way more storage space than I ever need. But it isn't durable.
Pros: tons of storage. Great color selections, nice handle and grip. Several chambers for storage. Makes backpack, several handles, expands.
Cons: 1st leg of my trip the wheels busted. Checked it out, the wheel structure is mounted to a very thin plastic frame inside the case. This will never stand up. No metal in the frame at all on mine. All cheap brittle plastic.
Over all, way too much money for wal-mart quality....
I will be sending this back. I do not recommend getting this. Maybe the smaller one is better???

High Sierra 26-Inch Drop-Bottom Wheeled Duffel, August 18, 2010
Great product for the occasional traveler. The reason that I bought this one is because they didn't have a 30-inch Drop-Bottom wheeled duffel and "some airlines" now consider the 32-inch as "oversided" by 1 1/2 inches. Aren't the airlines wonderful with their new restrictions, wonderful flight attendants and 'EXTRA CHARGES'? Still plenty of room in the 26 inch for a 10-day trip which includes an Alaskan cruise. Very well made and I HIGHLY recommend High Sierra Products.

An amazing all-in-one bag for all occasions, December 10, 2010
I first bought this model a year ago during my business trip to US from Russia.
I used it to bring lots of stuff back home and it sustained rough airport handling without any problems that you would usually expect, especially from hard surface luggage cases. This bag is made of very durable yet flexible fabric and has a lot of features you won't find in other bags, even for a higher price.
It has a drop-bottom, which allows even more stuff to be packed into it.
It has a special removable separator between the two compartments, which is also extremely useful.
It has built-in wheels that are harder to get broken due to rough handling than those rollers.
It has this rather spacious top pocket, where I usually pack my shoes. I come into a
Russian airport wearing rough weather boots, then I just take out of that pocket a pair of my Adidas climacool shoes, put my boots back into that pocket and go into the plane wearing comfortable Adis.
And in case there happen a staircase without an accompanying elevator/escalator (which happens in Russia a lot), this bag has these quite heavy-duty straps to use it as a backpack.
This bag survived a trip to Russia and back, it also survived a number of trips within Russia, and still looks almost like new.
I liked it so much that this year I decided to buy another one to have two of them in
case I go anywhere with my family and we have lots of stuff to carry. Honestly, I also
bought a couple of smaller ATQ and AT.Go bags by High Sierra as I personally find them
amazing and at a very affordable price (you rarely can find these bags at MSRP, they are always "on sale" :) )
In a few words, I HIGHLY recommend this brand and this particular model especially.
