I got the yellow color which ended up being more of a gold than the neon yellow it looks in the picture, much to my delight. The bag is extremely sturdy. I've checked it on a plane twice. The second time I somehow managed to leave the handle a wee bit up and it got back to me bent. When I found out the handle still worked and was still solid, I was very impressed. An aside: Filling it chock-full of clothes, I have had very little problem keeping it under the 50 lb. weight limit for flights. It has also accompanied me on several road trips. I've been very happy with the construction of this bag. I must mention, however, that a big problem exists with the chemical smell of this bag. I just about passed out when I first unwrapped it and spent days spraying it with everything from Febreeze to Lysol to What Odor and airing it out because I couldn't stand my clothes smelling like that. The first time I used the bag I put fabric softener sheets in with my clothes to keep them smelling normal. On the plus side, the odor didn't seem to get into my clothes at all. Weird. Haven't used the softener sheets since, except during storage, which I do with all of my luggage. Even with the above smell problem, I have to highly recommend this bag. If you can deal with the initial odor and have lots of time to air it out, this is simply a super bag. Its a great size (right near the linear inches limit for checked bags at most airlines) and very sturdy. It's now my default travel suitcase. This is my second purchase of this exact item! I would award 5 stars plus, if it wasn't for the smell."..." Read more
