Hi CJ! I am heavily considering this luggage because I love the look and functionality of the wheels and I don't mind scuffs/scratches so it seems like a good choice. However, what is your opinion on the handle after you've spent some time traveling, I travel for work and need something that will be sturdy long-term. Also, the warranty Floyd has isn't as extensive as other top-brands, were you able to get your luggage fixed/any issues with customer service? Thanks for the review, this brand doesn't get enough attention!
Hey 👋🏽 I haven’t had any issues with the handle. The trunk handle doesn’t wobble unlike the carry on, but even the carry on has been fine. To be honest I am not familiar with the warranty and I haven’t had to look into it or use it.
You may already be aware of this brand if you’ve done any sort of online research, but I’m really really happy with my Briggs&Riley suitcase, which has a lifetime warranty. You can send/bring in your luggage for repair, or they can send you parts to do yourself like replacing wheels. I also prefer soft sided luggage because I believe it to be more resistant to damage imo. A hardshell can warp if dropped on a corner or against the side, especially if it has a metal frame where the two sides meet. Anyway just my two cents. I too was very tempted, especially by the look of the wheels.
@@meanoch sounds nice. I’m not terribly familiar with the brand. But I’d love to do a review of one. Hey Briggs&Riley, send me over a suitcase and I’ll review it lol
Great videos CJ! A quick question, did the bearing fall off in the carry-on or in the trunk? These look phenomenal but I'm traveling for work almost weekly so I'm debating whether to get the cabin one or not :/
That happened on the trunk. I believe it happened when I checked it and it was handled by the luggage handlers. I think the carry-on/cabin is worth the money. Don’t forget to check out other online retailers that might have it for cheaper such as Farfetch.com and SSENSE.com
Hey, I’m considering getting the trunk size suitcase.. I’m looking for more of a long term option. Obviously, these look cool but I question whether or not it’s durable? and since there’s no zipper.. how effective is it from preventing water getting through it? If you know. Just want something that doesn’t pop open with ease, when it’s getting thrown around during travel and something that’s water proof… i don’t mind scratches here and there.. just want to make sure my belongings inside are protected and nobodies able to get in. Apologies for the long winded question/response lol
I think you’ll be fine. It locks in place fine. Just be sure to engage the lock, and don’t stuff the suitcase to where there is tension being put on the locking mechanism. I don’t think it would easily allow water inside. It’s not porous. And the seams seem to be closely together when the trunk is locked
Hi CJ! Does it roll well on carpet or when it's at full capacity? My ick with luggages is when I have to put in the extra effort to push them in either situations!
Have you had any trouble when using the carryon? Meaning has any of the airlines told you that it’s not a carry on size? I’m from the US. Thinking of buying one but I’m not looking to get a carry on checked in if possible.
But I did have to gate check it once it because the overhead bins were full and I was in the last group to board. So I would HIGHLY recommend packing an elastic cover for it at all times
I have the trunk and not the check in. So yes the cabin nests into the trunk, but I cannot confirm if it nests into the check in since that one is smaller technically

@@meanochtbf, they are really ugly.
Thanks for this! Any chance you can link to the protective cover you used?

Yes it does, very easily
Hi! I’ve been looking into this luggage. Did you purchase in the US? If so, where? Thank you!
Hi, if you check out my channel, I’ve posted several videos regarding this luggage. I purchased mine on farfetch.com
Have you had any trouble when using the carryon? Meaning has any of the airlines told you that it’s not a carry on size?
I’m from the US. Thinking of buying one but I’m not looking to get a carry on checked in if possible.
Hey 👋🏽 no issue at all
But I did have to gate check it once it because the overhead bins were full and I was in the last group to board. So I would HIGHLY recommend packing an elastic cover for it at all times
@@SeeItWithCJ thanks for quick response!! Can I ask what airlines you flew on?
@@jeffh2220 I fly very often. I’ve taken this on delta, spirit, jet blue, southwest and united.
Hi, did you fly with Ryanair or Easyjet while in Europe? That’s my main concern, not sure it will fit in the cabin @SeeItWithCJ
Is the cabin able to nest into the checkin?
I have the trunk and not the check in. So yes the cabin nests into the trunk, but I cannot confirm if it nests into the check in since that one is smaller technically
