Traveler's Choice Siena 21" Hardsided Rolling Upright

Product came as promised. Very good for those quick trips.The hard case on the rear makes it very durable also.

I wanted a sturdy carry-on with a garment-bag and at good price-point. I saw the Siena, with all the great reviews, and took the plunge. After a cross-county trip, I am more than happy with the bag and promise you will be, too.

Haven't used it yet - thus the 4 star rating. Love the design and will use to take my dress for my son's wedding along with me on the plane - not letting that dress out of my sight - not quickly replaceable! As my Indian name is woman who packs badly - this should easily contain the things I just could not replace and lots more. Love that it is a hardshell, but expandable.

This is the maiden voyage for me and this bag. Packing was a dream, room for my three days casual clothing and a jacket. Theere was still plenty of room. Will update when I get back.

I travel every week and use to carry a trifold garment bag. Bad for the shoulder! I was looking for the perfect garment bag to fit a suit and most of the time 4-5 shirts too. It fits perfectly for the garment bag section, folds easily in 3 sections. There is also a lot of room in the bottom part section for runnning shoes, tshirts etc... Perfect so far and I hope the wheels really stand up to the task.

outstanding and great for what I need for short trips

Separated storage sections with outside zippered opening is unique and very useful, no need to open up the entire suitcase. Expandable feature makes it convenient to use as carry on one way and checked luggage on the return. Hard case protects crushable or breakable gifts.

I bought this to use for 2-3 night business trips and there is plenty of room for an extra pair of shoes, blazer, slacks, shirts, etc. Your clothes are going to wrinkle, but that's going to happen with anything - I have a traveling steamer that fit just fine in the bag and I had room to spare on my first trip (2 days).I like the hard case sides and it fits in the overhead bin perfectly.

First, I should indicate I am frequent traveler, with weekly trips that are 3-4 days in length, as well as weekly-long trips overseas. I prefer carry-ons for expediency, speed of getting in & out of the airport and security and loss prevention. I have been using a 22-in Brookstone carry one - a great bag, but after years it has started to show it's age. I started looking for a carry-on bag that would give me more space, less weight and better protection for my suits. I started to look at the hard-shell hybrid bags (hard shell on the bottom and walls, and soft-shell at the top (or closing) section. A flexible front flap with sub-compartments, and an expandable capability, were highly desirable options. This bag fits the bill, and at a very reasonable price. The product is particularly unique as it uses two separate hard-shell elements in the frame. It is a double clam-shell design, meaning there is one bottom section, and a second top section, both of which are constructed of hard-shell plastic material. The only soft portion to the bag is the top (or front) clam section. The bottom section serves well as the frame of the bag, providing strength, and maximum utility space. This is were you would put all your general items, including shoes, toiletries, and non-delicate items. The second (or top) section is for your suits and other items that need to be protected from compression. The bag fits in the overhead compartments, of most wide-body jets, and fits wheels in (in a perpendicular manner). The bag will NOT fit into the overhead of a regional jet (Embraer or Bombardier etc.). By my calculation this bag is about 4-5% oversized, yet it still fits into overhad compartments as I note above, while allowing you to carry on more material. Only considerations or complaints: - The handle is reasonably sturdy, but could be a little better. - The wheels seems strong, currently are quiet, but the wheels axle extends by 1/16th of an inch and will collect debree (threads etc) from the floor as you roll it along. I've had to clean the axle a couple of times already. - The front accessories bag is a little tight and the zipper did break on my bag (probably due to luggage handler...)

This is the best suitcase I've purchased that's under 100 bucks. Fabulous! It fits in the overhead compartment perfectly. I can easily put 3 suits in the fromt section of the suitcase. My suits had almost no wrinkles even packed inside for an entire day. This is the best!
