Eagle Creek Luggage Load Warrior Wheeled Duffel 22, Black, One Size

I bought this bag to replace a bag that had been a real "road dog" of a bag. In fact, it had been such a good bag that I was feeling bad about having to say goodbye to it. After purchasing the Load Warrior and using it for my first week-long trip, I'm sold! It's light, but sturdy and fit and finish is better than I expected for bag in this price range. When combined with Eagle Creek's packing cubes you can squeeze a ton of stuff into this little roller. On my first trip I packed several clothing changes, plus I was able to bring back 3 new shirts from a little side trip to an outlet mall.So bottom line - lots of room, well made, lightweight, sturdy, and it looks great too! Highly recommended!

Bought this for size and structure. I've heard a lot of good things about Eagle Creek and decided to splurge a bit due to traveling a good deal and needing to get some luggage that would meet my needs. Went to Asia for a week using just this bag and laptop backpack and a purse (including extra shoes and toiletry bag) and it was perfect lots of space if packed strategically. Stable, meaning when you're looking for your passport, boarding pass, etc...you don't have to balance it against anything, but for me better than the rollers, which I really dislike. Keep in mind this isn't a recommendation for someone who needs to take several changes of everything just in case, gotta be ready to wear the same thing a couple of times (separates are the idea).The clips on the side help to compress the bag a good deal and best of all...drum roll please...when you're waiting at the baggage claim guess who doesn't have to check the tag to see which bag is yours.I've taken this bag with me on a few trips and except a few scuffs it's holding up really well. Haven't tried to take it on board with me yet. Size-wise it should be fine to carry-on, but since air carriers like to change their rules without notice on what size of bag is acceptable, who knows. But the dimensions as given are correct for a carry-on.I'm officially in love with Eagle Creek though--they deliver. Not inexpensive, but getting a good piece of luggage is an investment and I made a good one this time.July 2016: Just an update, I've been traveling regularly with this bag since my original review, the bag is still in excellent condition and can be used as carry-on. Unfortunately, Eagle Creek is no longer selling these more colorful bags and has gone to more drab colors and has altered the design a bit, seems they've widened some of the pockets and other features. Haven't bought any of the new designs, but highly disappointed by the color change. But still love this company's products.

Backpack had an issue with material becoming sticky and disintegrating. Called Eagle Creek to inquire about replacement and they were aware of the problem. However, no warranty available because their warranty only guaranteed for the life of the product and the life of the backpack was over!!! Eagle Creek's warranty is a sham!

It looks great, but not very practical for travel. I assumed the outside zip pocket would be wide enough for my lap top. No luck. I'm very dissappointed.

I travel a lot, over 100 flights a year and am a huge Eagle Creek fan but have 2 issues with this bag. First the color. The yellow.orange color I bought gets dirty fast, especially when the bag is checked I imagine the lime green would be the same but have no personal experience with that color.. 2nd, the Load Warrior is lacking in outside zipperd compartments to hold those last minute grabs or zipper bags with liquids. I think the Tarmac series are much better bags.

I'm on the road 40-50 nights a year and have been using this bag for nine months. There are lots of things I love about it and a few things I would change. It has sturdy handles in all the right places. Whether you are grabbing it out of the back of a car or out of the overhead bin on a plane you always have somewhere solid to grab. It's got a great amount of space inside, the wheels are sturdy and have held up well. The material seems to be wearing well. I haven't had any problems with it tipping or anything like that. Overall it's a great bag.There were a few features that when I bought the bag I thought "why would I want that?" Almost all of them have come in handy. The equipment keeper that stows into the handle is great when you have an extra pair of shoes to strap to the bag. The built-in bottle opener has saved the day more than once.There are a few things I would change. I would like more outside pocket space. There is a large pocket on the front that is referred to as the "laundry chute". The problem is it isn't really big enough for that and it is an awkward size for other things. I would have preferred two smaller pockets in its place. When going through security I usually put my wallet, phone and watch in a pocket in my bag. The laundry chute is so big they get lost in there if anything else is in it, and the only other pocket is too small.The other thing I would change is the configuration of the equipment keeper. It is basically a piece of bungee cord that stows in the handle compartment which then zips closed. Like I sai before it has come in handy. However the concern I have is the times when you are on a smaller aircraft and have to gate check your bag. Recently I was in a hurry and forgot to zip that closed. When I picked up the bag the equipment keeper had flopped outside. No harm done but it could have easily snagged on something and caused a problem. This is more of a word of warning to make sure you zip that closed in a situation like that.
