STURDY AS A ROCK, June 7, 2009
I've been buying Travelpro for years, as I fly all over Latin America and the US. This particular piece will fit in an overhead bin and move easily down aisles. On a long wait in Lima, I used it as a portable chair and used the metal handles as a backrest.
The luggage is quite rugged, and many flight attendants, etc. use the brand. I easily get 4-5 years out of a piece and fly 10-12 times a year.

Low build quality, May 5, 2010
This review is from: Travelpro Crew 7 20" Rollaboard (Apparel)
I travel weekly for work. I bought this bag to replace my 5 year old Atlantic (Travel Pros sister brand). This bag is of significantly lower build quality. In 1 years time, I've broken one handle and working on my second. The handle positioning tabs are plastic and break. Additionally, the handle just isn't that sturdy.
It also has a balance issue. My Atlantic never fell over on my, this one will from the wind generated by a butterfly.
Many of the zipper tabs have broken off.
The wheels fail quickly. This isn't a big deal as they can be replace with any rollerblade wheel.
The expansion bits are on the bag side, not the door side, which makes the bag difficult to close if you're cramming things in there.
On the plus side, it's not black, which means I can spot it anywhere and the luggage handlers reach for it sooner.

Great Quality and durability, September 23, 2009
I have been looking for the perfect travel case for my presentation material and I finally found it. My previous case's roller handle had broken and I was looking for a replacement. I knew Travelpro was a good name but I had never owned one before. Now I know what I was missing. This rollaboard is very durable and very well designed in every way. The outside zip around pockets are perfect and the roller bars and handle are bigger and sturdier than any other similar case. I highly recommend it.
