Update... larger than 22x14x9 ... So not the Perfect carry-on bag for me like I thought.
So... I wrote a pretty detailed review and it didn't save.... Boo
Replacement for a carryon I used for 6-7 years that I loved. Had returned one that tipped over when used. This one leans back slightly, so when using, it doesn't tip over. Easy to maneuver. I didn't want the 4 wheeled ones because the packing space is smaller. It is bigger than my old one. Lots of space. Just know it is 'thicker' than most and I had to sort of work it into the overhead. It would not fit if expanded or if bulky things in outside pockets. Now that I know it, I'll just make sure of that before getting on the plane. Wished it came in a color other than black, but not a deal breaker. Happy to have a bag I will use for a long long time!
April 4, 2017 update- I've used it on 2 round trip flights since receiving it a couple weeks ago. It fit in SW and in United's overheads. It looks bigger than what my other bag that this one replaced. I measured it, and it was 15 inches, not 14. It also looked a bit thicker than 9 inches, but if not packed full, it seemed to smash down to 9 inches. At airport I found an empty gate, and tried to put it in the metal carry on luggage checker that United has that determines if your luggage meets the requirements of carryon 22x14x9. It did not fit. It was too wide to fit in the 9 inch width. I really like the bag, but it is not carry on criteria sized. I was nervous at the gate until I got on the plane. If they had required me to measure my bag, it would not have met the requirements. It is a great piece of luggage, but the size is a deal breaker for me. While it passed thru and got on the plane as a carryon for 4 flights, I will always be uncomfortable using it if I'd keep it. I think I will return it.
