Summary: This bag is almost perfect... 2007-07-17
Comment: I just love these Samsonite Spinner style bags. I have a suitcase like this as well and I've become quite spoiled. This bag has a number of great features:
* It opens from the top, but doesn't flop all the way open, which means that when you open it, it sort of looks like an aligator mouth opened straight upward. You can access your papers or folders and slide your laptop in and out without having to lay the bag down as you would with most I've had in the past. This is especially nice when the surface isn't one you'd want to lay your bag on, such as the ground.
* The handle has multiple locking points, so you can adjust how long it is and lock it in. The locking handle also means that as you push it, you can rest the weight of your arm on it and it doesn't just telescope back down into the bag.
* It fits (snugly) under the seat in an airplane. The exception is those planes which have one seat in the row that has an unfairly narrow under-seat space. I've often found, however, that the person next to me is willing to swap under-seat space with me if their bag is smaller or if it's squishy and can be made to fit in a narrower space.
* The extra pockets are quite well thought out and useful, with lots of smaller pockets and dividers to keep the inside from becoming a jumbled mess. The central compartment is also surprisingly roomy. I've been impressed with what I can fit in there.
* The laptop slot itself is big enough for my 17" MacBook Pro (it was a tight fit for about a week until the fabric stretched just enough; now it's easy) and it's very easy to access (It's just a big padded pocket with a velcro strap over the top) which makes it very fast when going through security at the airport.
* And of course, the spinner wheels. You don't fully realize how much of the weight of a rolling bag is on your arm/shoulder until you've wheeled around one of these Spinner bags. It's almost effortless, unless you're going uphill or on thick carpet--but in those cases you just tip it and drag it like any other wheeled bag. It's also very easy to change hands while walking without slowing down, or to switch which way the bag is facing, or move it around things, or swap from rolling it in front of you to behind, or from the left to the right... it's just amazingly convenient. I also can lay other things on top of the bag and use it almost like a luggage cart. I often loop one of the straps of my purse over the handle and set my purse on the bag, then set my jacket on my purse, then loop the other strap of my purse over the handle. The purse then holds my jacket from falling off and I don't have to carry anything.
The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is actually perhaps unfair, as I'm not sure it's a design flaw so much as a flaw in my usage: when I open the bag, it is well balanced and stays upright, even if I have the handle extended fully ...unless my laptop is in it. If my laptop is in its slot, the bag becomes front-heavy and will tip over unless I put my leg in front of it or lean it against a chair or something.
Overall I recommend this bag highly, as well as the rest of the Spinner luggage from Samsonite.
