Framelock Max 29” Large Checked Hardshell Zipperless Luggage - Highly Secure Integrated Eazylock™ Mechanism - RightHeight™ Adjustable Handle - 360° Spinner Wheels - Airline Approved - Glacial Silver

late review but luggage has been through two 3 week international trips. first trip went through 3 countires Japan, Philippines and Singapore. the Japan leg involved rolling this bag on the sidewalks and subways as we looked for the hotel and as we took the train to the airport. rolls well. i am a little skeptical of the locking mechanism ( 2 small hooks that pop up to secure tbe 2 halves of this big luggage) i put a bag strap for added security. 2nd 3 week trip was only to 2 countries and did not involve extended rolling on sidewalks but again rolled well. again used a luggage strap for peace of mind. just some scuffs to show use. i filled it up as i figure that will add to structural integrity as it gets tossed about

I am really liking this luggage. I love not have to use a zipper. It holds a ton of stuff and opens and closes nice and easy. As heavy as I pack it, it stays closed with no problems. The handle releases and reinserts as smooth as silk and it rolls beautifully. There is no wobble when you open it up, it’s nice and firm feeling and shuts with no issues. The handles on top and sides for option of carrying are nice as well. Hoping that this will last longer than the zipper style luggage, which always seems to fail after about a year. You know, where it gets to the point that the zipper starts to separate and your things start falling out? I’d buy again. Samsonite has gained another customer.

I love this piece, no zippers! The just need a medium version.

I bought the large suitcase for a Trip to SE Asia. I was a bit skeptical when I received it because the frame looks plastic to me. I have other zipperless suitcases and they all have a metal frame enclosure. But I must say this survived the 15 day trip to two different countries! This suitcase is great because it is deeper than your typical hard case. I did a lot shopping on my trip and it was perfect with plenty try of room to shop my gifts back home in. I would recommend this if you are traveling overseas. I highly recommend zipperless to reduce theft of your belongings. It’s too easy to puncture a Ippwr with a ballpoint pen and access your stuff then zip it back up as if nothing happened. Trust me. Zipperless is the way to go even with a carry-on. I received a warning from Japan Aii es about thefts in the cabin from organized gangs who take long haul flights and steal items from the overhead bins when everyone is asleep. Better to be smart and safe while traveling! All of my luggage is now zipperless.

I bought both the carry-on spinner (used - like new, and it was) for $160 and the 29" new for $250 with tax. We travel internationally frequently and prefer zipperless luggage for better security. This luggage is attractive and well made and has performed ok on trips so far, however it is very difficult to close if over stuffed and it lacks corner protectors, which is a concern. The locking mechanism is a single little L-R slider tab in the middle that connects to the locking mechanisms on the left an right side. It is very easy to operate if you don't over stuff the luggage, but very difficult to lock if you do, as you need to press on both sides where the locks are while at the same time sliding the tab which can be rather difficult. We found the similiar Luggex luggage on here to be better and easier to use, since it has seperate external locks on the R and L that you can close individually, plus it has large corner protectors that is luggage lacks. Their carry-on spinner is also over $100 cheaper at this time.

I bought this suitcase because it did not depend on a zipper closure to keep the two halves closed. This one is much more secure and no issue of a zipper jamming sooner or later. I love the way the interior is designed--it has a zippered fabric on each side that completely encloses that compartment. When I lift one side to close it, nothing falls out or shifts around to complicate the closing. It is very lightweight for its size. It completely utilizes the 62" linear measurement that airlines allow. I'm not sure that silver is a good choice of color. It got marked up on the first trip.

This locking mechanism is so poorly thought out. You can't overpack, you can't even average pack. You have to under pack and then press on the corners for the latches to catch using the zipper pull to lock. Get a suitcase that has actuales external latches you can leverage. I took this to Africa for 3 weeks and fought with it every time. I've reached out to Amazon customer service who were both helpful. I've not reached out to Samsonite to see what they say.

I can not say enough good things regarding this awesome suitcase. I do many international flights and needed a secure locking piece of luggage and one that stood up to the rugged handling with the baggage handlers. Considering purchasing 2 smaller ones soon.
