Spinners, Black, 22-inch Baseline Essential Carry-On

I bopught 2 of these and we used them both for a trip to Canada. These do NOT live up to the hype. Firstly when fully packed and expanded these are not stable and the handle is way too flimsy. Our bags weighed 53 & 57kgs respectively, which was fine as we were travelling 1st class but the handle on these large bags is way to flimsy to support the weight of the bag. This makes it difficult to control the bag. There no brakes on thw wheeels and the bag constantly runs away from you. The extender inside the suitcase only works when the bag is empty. If you overfill your suitcase and then want to extend it, it doesnt work and so you need to take everything out your suitcase and start again. Its full of gimmicks that simply dont work. Its back to reliable Samsonite for us!!!

Close to perfect. Unfortunately there is not enough zipper clearance from the wheel casing. If the suitcase is empty or simply just not filled to the top then the cover will lay too flush and it’s a pain to maneuver around with one hand and still very cumbersome to do with two hands.

I dont think much more need to be said. This is expensive, you get what you pay for - with B&R - the bag is near perfect. The material is sturdy, wheels are effortless and quality is precise. If ones budget allows - this is the epitome of the ideal (non disposable) luggage for any trip.

Well built and easy to use

I travel for work 30 to 40 % of the year for work and personal travel. This bag has lots of small features that make a big impact overall. I only wish I had purchased it sooner.

Decided to buy after reviewing videos of the best travel bags online and visiting the site of this highly rated bag. I have used it on several domestic and international trips and it has lived up to the hype. The telescoping handle makes it easy to find a comfortable height for transport and the wheels help the bag to glide effortlessly, even with it’s larger size. The material is sturdy and has shown little wear thus far. However the best feature is the patented expansion system that allows you to squeeze in those few extra items when necessary. It has become one of my go to pieces of luggage for travel. Glad to get a great price on Amazon.

I had a previous 2 wheeler and got tennis elbow due to pulling the weight inclined of the suitcase plus my laptop briefcase.

I have used Briggs and Riley for YEARS for my international travel. I have 2 Baseline suitcases; one is the 22 inch 2 wheel expandable, and the other is the Global 21 inch 2 wheel expandable. I love the expansion system (or I thought I did). We also have a Tumi 26 check luggage expandable bag but it is a bit too heavy and limits the packing due to the weight issue so I thought I would pick 2 of these spinners as a replacements for the Tumi - mistakes were made! I am so glad I only used one of these. VERY disappointed and have returned the other that was never taken out of the box. Either the expansion system or the zipper damaged my clothing. I have a brand new pair of pants that tore down the seam/fold of the pants, and my sons suit pants are also ruined with multiple small holes that run down the seam of the pants. When we arrived at our destination and I saw the clothes I was so upset. I cannot tell how it happened but I wish I could return this suitcase too.

The only carry on that keeps all my clothes organized and remains lightweight! Classic style, ease of transport and quality production! Already own other Briggs pieces so this was a no brainer!

This thing works great. That said, I probably could have gone with a less expensive bag and had similar results. The Travelpro platinum series for example, if the lifetime guarantee is your thing. But they were sold out. I like that I can either ship it to be repaired, or, just buy $15 repair kits for just about anything (wheels, handles, etc). With travelpro you have to call them. Briggs has them on their website. Only have to ship for zipper issues.
