AmazonBasics Geometric Hardside Luggage (Open Box)

I bought this for a trip to Europe and was very satisfied with my purchase. It was the perfect size for the current regulations (as of 2019) for a large check in bag. I bought it in the vivid pink color, which I find aesthetically pleasing, and I spotted it a mile away amongst a group of black bags that had been taken off the carousel after an interminable customs process. The outer shell is hard and study, with a molded geometric pattern. There are no outside pockets. The wheels are large and doubled, which I think makes them more sturdy. I had no trouble moving the suitcase through the airports and along European cobblestone streets. There is a handle on the top and another on the side of the case, and small rubber “feet” for resting the suitcase on its side. When open, each half is equally roomy, and there is a middle flap that zips one half of the case closed; the other half has straps that lock to keep things in place. The middle flap has two zippered pockets; one of them is mesh for items that need air circulation. The case also has the standard long, thin zippered pouch in the middle for smaller items. The suitcase zips closed with two zipper pulls that snap into slots on the side of the case next to a lock that can be set with a numeric code if need be. I didn’t set a code, but I kept the zippers snapped into place. To release them, you simply push up on a release lever, and the zipper pulls pop back out of the slots. I note that some reviewers seem to have been befuddled by this zipper function but it’s really not complicated whatsoever. There’s also a third zipper that serves to expand or compress the case. I had more than enough room for all my clothes - in fact, I could have fit a lot more inside if it were not for the weight restrictions by the airlines. (The suitcase itself is very lightweight.) For the price, I highly recommend this suitcase.
