Travelpro Maxlite 5 Softside Lightweight Carry-On Upright 2 Wheel Rolling Garment Bag 22-Inch Black

Bought this to improve upon my last carry-on, as I was tired of massively wrinkled suits. The reviews are true: you can fit a huge amount of clothing in this bag. My first trip included one full suit, two pairs of pants, and three long-sleeved dress shirts, with all the usual undershirts, workout clothes, sundries and such, and a pair of dress shoes. For my size, a stout 6', the tails of my shirts and suit jackets did fold up, but various straps and covers provided meant that any wrinkles were not creases, and they hung-out easily on arrival, or with just slight bit of ironing work. Plenty of pockets and a very sturdy handle. The only thing I had to get used to was having only two wheels to work with while rolling, but that's easy. And it fits nicely in both United and AA baggage sizers with no issue, even fully loaded. No problems traveling with it as a carry-on though multiple domestic or international flights I've taken with it. Update from Jan 2020: I've flown with this as carry-on on all major US domestic carriers and Hawaiian Air, plus United international, Emirates, Jet Airways, Air India, Vistara, Spice Jet, ANA, Avianca and Singapore. Only Emirates hassled me a bit but it was over the weight of what I packed not the size. Read more

Great garment bag, just the right size to fit in as carry on bag in airlines. I travel a lot so lots of wear & tear and this bag tolerates the abuse. In last 20 years this is my 3rd one. I will not consider a different one. It has so many pockets/nook to store clothes and sundries. Lot and lot of storage capacity. Great value for money. Read more

This suitcase was awkward to roll and too wide to roll as a carry-on in the plane aisle. You have to pick it up and carry it sideways to get down the aisles. You have to either drag it behind you or push it in front of you. I guess I’ve been spoiled with the newer 4-wheel coaster types available? Had a very long terminal transfer in Dulles and the bag was a bear to drag around. It did pack very well though! I had multiple suits and room for shoes and change of clothes in case the airlines lost my checked bag, which they did! The main zipper lock broke and my return window expired so I’m now stuck using the larger zipper pulls hole to lock the bag. My clothes were not wrinkled and the bag holds a good amount. It fit easily in the overhead bin . Read more

Really enjoyed bringing our 2 wedding outfits on the plane, so most-important luggage was not lost in travel. Additionally it fit several other outfits. I did have to press a couple of shirts, but all in all (with careful packing) clothing stayed nice and wearable. The wheels are great, though you do have to carry it inside the plane (it doesn't roll sideways). It has two outside pockets that are more than adequate for a large laptop, plus chargers. The bag looks nice and I'm confident that we will get lots of use out of it. Read more

Sadly, this is not a carry-on garment bag. I specifically bought it to be carried onboard, but the front feet are approximately 1/4" (or less) too long. The bag itself is nice, good quality, and roomy. It fits one man's and one women's suit comfortably with a lot of space for underclothes, shoes, and probably another outfit for each. Read more

This carry on is awesome! It’s a bit expensive but you can’t beat it for business travel. 3 full suits, 1 sport coat & 4 dress shirts + toiletries all fit into this carry on! For reference I’m between 5’9”-5’10” and 205 lbs. so my clothes aren’t small either. I didn’t need to check a bag which meant in and out of airport much faster and I didn’t have to worry about expensing a baggage fee later on. Double win. The clothes were in decent shape-admittedly they would have been in better shape if I didn’t pack it to the brim for a week long conference. But a little light steaming and hanging the suits in the hotel closet and they were in great shape. The straps inside to keep the clothes in place are very well positioned and work great. The interior pockets are great for toiletries. The wheels not being 360 degrees can be a hassle because it forces you to carry the bag up and down the aisle on the plane. That’s the only thing I would change about it if I could. Overall, extremely satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend for business travel. Read more

We purchased this for a bus trip in which we needed to bring a 2-piece suit, a ladies jacket, and a few button down shirts that we didn't want to have to iron. It didn't matter if it was in the luggage one day or 3 days, the arms of all items needed to be ironed, and the bottoms of them. I really wanted it to work, so I tried various ways of packing them - the padded bar in the middle was not helpful in keeping them straightened out. So iron I did - every time we needed to wear them. It was handy to be able to roll it, and has nice storage on the outside. The storage on the inside is awkward, unless it is for very light things. The inside is zippered shut after placing the clothes in the hanging area, and two of the storage pockets are zippered pockets on the inside of that - which to me seems like it would compound the wrinkling. We only used one for handkerchiefs. I will probably never use this again, and unfortunately, it is past the date of returning by a month, as we just got back from that trip. Read more

I was skeptical when I bought this. I am 5'4", so a little shorter than average. This fit 2 full suits, 3 shirts, shoes, ties, (2) laptop chargers and it was still pretty light to walk around the airport with. When I arrived at my destination there was not a single wrinkle in any of my clothes, and I don't want to forget that it actually fit in the plane's overhead compartment. I wish I had overcome my skepticism a long time ago and bought one of these. I am not sure how it would work out for someone who is much taller than me because my suits are 38 short and I had to do a little folder over on the bottom of the suit because it was a little too big for the case. But again, no wrinkles, easy to transport, meets airport carry on requirements, and it really does seem durable (but I also take care of the things I buy). I do recommend this. Read more
