What can I say... After years of traveling with Delsey, they again impress me with the quality and durability after exstensive airline abuse. Other brands do not stand up to this same wear without showing defects and visible abrashion. I applaud Delsey and concur with their number-one rating in lugage!

I went carry on for a week in Mexico and have used the case on numerous business trips. I can get four days of business clothes and a week of vacation clothes in the case and it fits in the overhead every time. The only thing to be aware of is with the expander open some smaller overheads may be difficult to get the case in to. The handles on three sides, top, side, and bottom make lifting the case easier than other cases. The separate divider in the top cover allows pants or dress shirts to stay neat.
All in all I am satisfied with the case and now my wife wants one.

This 21" carry on is fantastic!

I just spent 14 days in Hong Kong with this bag and a backpack. The corners are all reinforced so it should hold up over time. The other reviewer seems to confirm the durability with 2 years of use. While gone I moved hotels 3 times and checked this luggage for the longer flights. My sport coat and dress shirt remained unwrinkled (vacation trip, not business). I put my dirty underwear, socks and undershirts in the outside pocket for the return trip. Sadly, it wasn't searched. My traveling buddy brought a HUGE bag, so placing gifts and souvenirs in his bag on the way home worked out for me, but that won't always be the case.

If you're traveling for 1-4 days and don't expect to bring big gifts back, this size is a good choice. If going international, you might want a little larger version.

The luggage has straps to hold clothes in place and the removable shirt area on the top should allow 3 folded dress shirts to remain unwrinkled. The extensible handle is nice, but the inside of the bag is impacted by it - heck it has to slide away somewhere.

Check that the extra bag strap on works. In the store where I bought this, they only had 1 working strap for 3 of the bags. I wanted to latch my backpack to this roller when transporting them together.

The Delsey "Helium Breeze" line seems to be where the jump in quality happens for Delsey without the pricing of the "Pro" line.
Highly recommended.

My carry-on has seen a LOT of use in the last 2 years, and has handled it like a champ.

Do the research - for the size, weight, quality of materials, and features, there is no better piece of luggage in this price range.
