Angel – thanks for the notes and comments. I actually requested the orange bag as it does stand out which I like – I see too many grey and black bags out there! Good to hear about the Tarmac AWD, I wasn’t familiar with that one.

It’s weird they gave you that orange color. That is being discontinued and in many spots no longer available. What bugs me about the bag you reviewed is that the Medium size folder doesn’t fit so nicely when packed out in that front flap. I prefer the Tarmac AWD. I’ve had it since last year and love it.

In reply to Michael Zullo.

Michael – Samsonite is another brand that I’ve heard good things about re durability. I haven’t yet tried out their product though. On a side note, your 6 years of traveling sounds awesome! I hope to get to Antarctica at some point – the last continent I have yet to visit.

Good report about Eagle Creek luggage. We prefer Samsonite mostly because it has held up the best since we’ve been on the road for over 6 years traveling worlwide, touching on all 7 Continents. However, we always have our eye open for durable luggage with strong wheels as we haul 3 large suitcases and 2 carry-on’s (enough clothes for 4 seasons). So, we’ll check out Eagle Creeks carry-on piece since 1 of ours needs to be replaced soon and hope for the best that it complies with Delta Airlines’ crack down on carry-on’s.
