Thule Subterra Carry On Roller 22, Black

My Lady and I used the roller and backpack for a 5day getaway to the Yucatán, worked great....no checked bags is the only way to go!

The Thule Subterra 22 Carry-on is a great piece of luggage with a lot of strong features. Its not perfect, however, and Ill also try to cover some of the weaknesses in this review.

This bag is incredible. I LOVE the compression side ...can fit so much more into it and not look all wrinkled. Has a protetced outside pocket ....I love it. Looks great too.

The Bad: The only thing I dont really like is the wheels, they are large(which is good) but they are made of a hard plastic and appear to be wearing pretty quickly relative to the rest of the bag.

I really needed a trolley like this and I spent much time reading reviews before buying it. It is almost perfect, the size is right, organization of the space is perfect, big enough for up to a 3 days trip. I do really like the internal space saver.

I couldn’t get it apart.

I just used this suitcase on a short trip and absolutely love it. The design is both visually appealing and functionally ideal. The suitcase opens down the middle and one side is a fully open section (with a flat cover that can be adjusted to keep clothes in place and keep them from falling out when the suitcase is opened) and the other side is about 3/4 of the side of the suitcase with a zipper to close. The final 1/4 of that side of the suitcase is taken up by a pouch that unzips from the front of the suitcase and allows for storing things that you need easy access to. What I love about that pouch is that it is big enough to hold larger items like a book or a toiletry bag without a problem. I was able to use this bag as my carry-on bag and not need a second personal item like a backpack because of the convenience of how this bag is laid out.

Great Luggage you will not be disappointed.

This is a handy little roll-on suitcase. Clearly a lot of thought has gone into the design with built in dividers. These dividers are advertised as allowing you to pack more. That rather depends on how and what you pack. If you are an organized person you may actually pack systematically and may benefit from using the dividers. Personally, I can pack more into a suitcase if I have undivided space. Again, if you are one of those organized people, you may find that this lets your clothes arrive at your destination in better shape. The wheel mechanism seems a little bulky and reduces the amount of usable space. Still Thule does make a larger version of this if you find the space inadequate for your needs.

I have been very happy with this bag for its superior construction, ability to compress clothes, useful pockets, and it fits perfectly in an overhead bin. Downsides for me is that it does not hold a lot even with the compression ability (and the compression feature really wrinkled some of my clothes), and it is a little on the heavy side for its size.
