Travelpro Crew-9 29" Hardside Spinner

I purchased two of these June 2016, using them on approximately six international trips since. The bags roll nicely, the compartment with the zip cover is nice - the side with the straps less so due to the strap positions. The option to unzip and expand is nice in case you buy items to return. I like the handles, the TSA zipper locks as well. But if you look at the photo you’ll see what looks like a n upsude down “u” shaped panel with the Travelpro logo. In April, with normal airline handling, the two sides and top of the “u” shaped panel became loose from the rest of the suitcase, leaving a tongue fastened at the bottom but completely losing the integrity of a wall. That suitcase is irrepairable and must be discarded - not what I expected with less than two years of light, certainly not more than moderate, use. As this damage is not a puncture or break but a separation of the baggage at a design point, this baggage must be considered flawed in design and manufacture. Don’t waste your money.
