Roller Pro Bag

I Kickstarted this product, so I was rooting for it. Let me start with the good news: the wheels roll. Now the bad news. After two uses, one of the zippers failed near the hinge. You can actually see the zipper pulling off the track at the turn. That's a design flaw. By the third trip, I was packing backup straps just in case the second zipper gave out too. The laptop compartment eats up 7cm of depth. Most laptops are less than 1cm thick. That's a massive waste of space in a carry on, and it really should be called out in the specs so buyers know what they're giving up. Two stars instead of one because it does technically hold your stuff. Until the zippers fail.

I've done a couple trips with this bag and just love it. That it opens sideways vs the standard is genius. So much easier to quickly grab something on the go, and easier to pack as well. The wheels are amazing, almost too good as the bag will start to roll at the slightest degree of downhill. Not a complaint though, but watch out, it will start to travel by itself! Super happy and can't wait to put endless miles on it.

Got this suitcase as a gift as I love the brand. Absolutely amazing organization, style, and functionality out of this small case. I appreciate the overall design especially the carbon fiber elements. I use the bag for most all of my ski trips and have never had any issues with it. Amazingly made. Would reccomend.

Rather disappointed with this bag. Bought it on the promise that it fits international baggage allowances, spoiler, it doesn't. Particularly Korean airlines and Asiana. More than once I have been that person who had to rotate their bag such that it takes up a lot of linear room in the overhead. It has gotten checked more often than it has ridden in the cabin. Definitely not fitting in the Ryanair sizer (so prepare to check it). Does work for British Airways and Virgin, if we are being fair. Not that I care about this part, but it does seem to scuff rather easily. I think it is character, but some people will care. Rolls really nicely on carpet and smooth surfaces, not so great on the pavements of England or anywhere that peagravel is present. At home, super smooth. Around the airport, super smooth. To the taxi, iffy. On the pavements walking to your hotel, carry it. Ultimately this bag gets used for my train trips and car journeys. It is a shame that it does not work for my flights as I do like the drawbridge style. As others have mentioned though, the laptop sleeve is rather silly, for multiple reasons the least of which being putting lithium batteries (like the one in a laptop) in the overhead is forbidden and some airlines do check.

The Roller Pro is an awesome piece of travel gear. Nicely designed, with a lot of helpful details. Worked very well on my last 2 trips. Looking forward to see it in combination with the new upcoming 20L Backpacks as well for larger trips with my Travel Backpack 45L. The only downside is the weight... If PD could have it done with a bit less of weight I would rate it 6 stars.
