Olympia U.S.A. Under The Seat Carry-on

I bought this bag for an international trip. I have a sore shoulder and a sore knee. This meant I didn't want to be carrying anything or dealing with the overhead bins. The bag was great. I had aisle seats on all 4 flights. It turns out that aisle seats, at least on Delta, have a bar going down from the seat in front that mean there isn't enough room for this bag. On one flight, I had an aisle seat from the center section and there was room under the seat in front of me for the bag. But on the other 3 flights, I was on the aisle from the side and there wasn't room under the seat in front of me for more than a purse. If I had been on a center seat or the window seat, this bag would have fit just dandy under the seat in front of me. But that isn't the bag's fault, it is just how the seats are designed. However, it didn't bother me at all. The bag is small and easily fit in the over head bin. It was easy to get it down and it fits nicely on a seat if you want to get something out and then put it back up. The bag itself is rather light, so even with my stuff in it I could easily put it up and down, even with my sore shoulder. The bag was great for what I wanted for this trip. The very first pocket on the front is perfectly sized for a passport. The next pocket up was perfectly sized for my tablet. There is a nice narrow pocket on the front on the top that was perfect for earbuds and a chapstick and small things like that. On the inside, right at the top is another narrow pocket that was a bit larger that was perfect for charging cords. Then there are 2 pockets on either side. One I used for my quart bag full of little liquids and it was a great size for this and worked very well for pulling those out and putting them away. The other side I used for my water bottle. The main compartment has a sleeve for a laptop which I wasn't carrying, but it would have worked well and then I had a fleece jacket and a light sweater in there (I think planes are always cold). Then I had a couple of shirts, some socks and so on in case I missed a flight. I also had some granola bars and a rather bulky knee brace. On the way home, I still had room for a few souvenirs that were fragile and I didn't want to check. This bag isn't huge, put it did hold everything I needed. It does only have one pull bar instead of the common 2 bars with a handle to pull it. But it was sturdy and worked well. And the retractable part of the pull handles do take up room on the inside so the one bar to pull it takes up less space on the inside, for which I was grateful. I really enjoyed the sleeve so that I could set it on top of my checked back and then push the two of them together for coming to and leaving the airport. I'm a grandmother, I was traveling alone and I didn't want to have to carry a backpack or heavy purse. I was checking a larger bag with most of what I would need. This bag was absolutely perfect for the airplane part of my trip.

This is a wonderful travel bag to fit overhead or under the seat if you do not mind losing the leg space. It has nice compartments and you also can put it over the back of other luggage which I love. The wheels are not the "Best" quality but seem decent and wheel easily. Time will tell or it would of been 5 all the way. I am sure you cannot beat it for the price!

This is my second bag, same one. I purchased the first one at BJ’s for 60$. After 5 years of daily use, the zipper broke. I tried other bags, but was not the same. I bit the bullet and paid 160$ for new one same model. It is worth though because I’m very picky about my bags. They have to be functional and easily accessible. It has a lot of small pockets and large compartments as well. Great for traveling or every day use. It’s perfect for me, just wish I could find it at the original price.

Handle is too short even when completely extented and this is a person who is 5’6”. Sorry I did not purchase a carryon with 4 swiveling wheels. It does hold a lot for the size. Lots of zip compartments and holds I pad nicely. Very lightweight. The outside fabric is decent quality.

Gave this item as a gift for a traveler and they loved it, the capacity was large enough to hold a long weekends clothing needs and its accessed like a regular suitcase would be making it easier to find something and easier to pack

Well, you don't know until you know. It seemed like it was well made. I took it on a short trip on Alaska Airlines. (about 3 hrs. and 45 minutes) I wanted it for UNDER the seat. I am a short person and I wanted to be able to reach my things instead of dealing with the overhead. IT DOES NOT FIT underneath the middle seat or the aisle seat on an Alaska 737 aircraft, just so you are aware. So that was a bust. It was okay as far as storage. I had a couple of books, my headphones, my supplements, etc. Again, it was a bust because since I was sitting in the middle seat, my husband had to place in the overhead for me both ways. Luckily the trip was less than 4 hours. As for the pull up handle --- it was not designed very well. The button to collapse it at the top is very sensitive, so it kept collapsing on me. It was wobbly to pull around, and once on the plane I had to push it in front of me as it kept getting stuck on the aisle seats. PROS: looks well made, lots of pockets for organizing. Very sturdy compartment, with spaces for your laptop. (I did not take mine) CONS: did not fit under the seat, wobbly maneuvering, sensitive pull up handle did not stay extended very well. I am going to have to sell this one and keep looking. I am sure this will work nicely for someone that is expecting to put it in the overhead. It is a decent bag, just not what I was looking for. I should have checked all of the measurements before I settled on this one. I was so excited for my trip I purchased way in advance and it's past the return window.

I am older and I always need my CPAK. My CPAK fit inside of this with room to spare and it has a nice padded place for my IPad. it also has lots of zipper pockets which was very handy. So, I didn’t have to carry it to the airline gate. So much easier to travel this way. It also really did fit under the seat of the Alaska Airlines flight I was on. This is the only review I have written. I have done so because this luggage worked so well for me!

Quite pleased with the quality of material Perfect for regional flights

Single handle .not the best when trying to roll the carry on fully packed.
