Chatelet Hard+ Hardside Luggage with Spinner Wheels, Champagne White, Checked-Large 28 Inch

Great functionality inside and out. The break is a good feature. With the matching handbag strapped on top, you don’t have to check bag and it’s good not to have to carry your hand luggage. And it looks good too!

*** Update: flew Anerican this weekend and used my Delsey to carry on. American's carry on specs are 22×9×14. With wheels this was a hair over 22" but I had no trouble carrying it on. They ran out of overhead bin space on one leg of my trip and forced me to check it. The cover I bought did not fit, so I had no cover on it this trip. It faired well, but obviously the white shows every mark. I will be buying a new cover for it...just in case!!! Otherwise, still loving my suitcase!Original review: This is a beautiful piece of luggage. With the wheels, it is on the taller end for carry ons. Will work as a carry on on Southwest and couple others. I travel domestically quite a bit with Southwest, so this fits my needs, but will need another suitcase if I use an airline that requires a 21" case.The suitcase rolls really nicely and the handle slides easily. The interior is a beautiful red color and the fabric lining is very nice quality. I love that it has zip enclosures on both sides and great pockets.Comes with two bags for shoes or dirty laundry and a hanger with a place to hang items in the case!Very good quality case. I am extremely pleased with my purchase!

I saw this on Black Friday at a great price and snatched it up to go with a matching 24” piece I already own.This carry-on size in the Champagne color had been sold out everywhere for a while, so when I saw it appear on Black Friday for a discounted price, I was prepared for a knock-off or less than perfect item.Looks like it checks out! It certainly looked legit with Delsey tags and booklets, but I did call and check the serial number just to be sure.I rated 5 stars because it’s exactly what I have been looking for...I already know I like it. The quality is fantastic and worth the investment for my needs.If you’re unfamiliar with the Chatelet line, they are not “lightweight” or expandable, but for my travel needs, those were not the most important attributes.The quality is fantastic and the piece is BEAUTIFUL.I use a clear luggage cover when checking the bag to protect from scuffs. I took a matching piece to Europe, and after several times being checked, the scuffs weren’t terrible, but I had to work much harder than expected to remove them. (Because the scuffs we’re settled down into the tiny texture.)I’ve traveled air, car, and train with a Chatelet Champagne piece and am very, very happy I invested in nice-looking, quality luggage.(None of the “leather” is real leather. I think I’ve seen it described incorrectly in some listings. The faux-leather is easy to clean and seems to resist watermarks and stains.)

I wasn't sure this was a good buy, as I can find suitcases for a fraction of this price at TJMaxx. However, I was sold on the style and really wanted to believe it was a higher quality, in spite of a few of the reviews I read on here. Well I'm here to tell you....this suitcase can take a beating! I dare anyone to drop their $99 bags from TJMaxx down an airport escalator and see what happens. This was a LOOONNNG escalator at Logan. My son was standing behind me, going down, so higher up. Right as we began our descent he somehow lost control of his bag. Mine was packed pretty heavy, so I had no safe choice when his hit mine other than to let it go. I watched it bounce down, and bounce it did, hitting one corner after another, with it's telescopic handle fully extended, helpless. It felt like slo-mo, as it took forever for it to land at the bottom. When I finally caught up to it at the bottom I found no dents, no cracks, handle fully intact, barely a scratch. I still can't believe it. I'm sold.Update: If the person who wrote the review titled "Terrible" just below mine would like to ship theirs to me instead of throwing it away, that'd be great! ;-)

This is not only beautiful, it is very well designed and made. The zippers work well. The locks operate well. I absolutely love how the liners separate the 2 sides and secure the contents of the sides completely. They roll very well. I didn’t need to use the break, but I’m sure it works great. The handle raises smoothly, though I would like it to be a bit taller. I bought white and it did get pretty scuffed up on our first trip. I waited until I got home to clean it. Most of the marks came off with little effort. But some would not. I even used a toothpick to clean between the ridges. It was a process. Took me about an hour to clean 2 suitcases. My suitcases do not look brand new, but the don’t look bad either.The only improvement I have is to change the texture of the outer shell of the suitcase. It is hard plastid with a sharp ridge pattern. Every time my knee or ankle hit the suitcases, it scraped my skin off. A couple times I was actually bleeding. So wear heavy long pants when you travel with these. I suggest jeans. The suitcases scraped my bare legs and when I wore my yoga pants. OUCH! We primarily travel to tropical areas so this will be an ongoing problem for us. I docked a star because of the battle wounds I received on our trip.
