Overpriced

As much as I like the luggage, after buying and using it, I realized it was over $100.00 more than everywhere else that carries the same bag. That’s on me for not doing my due diligence, but that is ridiculous. I won’t be fooled again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a replacement of the same bag after the zipper broke! Love this bag. I travel extensively and have many other bags. None have the compartments with outside access that this bag has. Makes it easy to partially unpack and continue to live out of the bag. Everything has a place. Had the original bag for 6 years, traveling almost nonstop.

Motherlode for Long Trip and Varying Weather

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife and I were planning multiple trips this summer, including a 17-day Tour of Nordic Capitals, and our existing luggage was old and failing. We liked the features and styling of Samsonite's Motherlode collection and so ordered one duffel for each of us, plus one carry-on. Now we've used these items on the Nordic trip and liked them very much. We were able to pack a lot in them and, although the duffels are already a little heavy when empty, we were able to pack a lot in them without going over the airline's 50lb weight limit. We especially liked the combination of the hard-side bottom section with the soft-side top, the ability to access the top section through the outside u-shaped zipper, the quality of the zippers themselves, and the side and top pockets. Note that if you're used to 4 spinning wheels, that the duffle has only 2 non-spinning wheels.

One Bag that holds it all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bag holds it all. No need to pack an additional carry on bag. I was comcerned it would tip over since it only has 2 wheels, it does not and it is much easier to handle than a bag with 4 spinner wheels.

decent bag - room for improvement

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a solid bag, but some features were eliminated from the eBags version that were extremely helpful. The zipper style is fine, but not as easy to lock at the eBags ones were and the size is a bit large for most travelers. It's disappointing that Samsonite eliminated the medium sized Mother Lode, which was a much more helpful size.
