Best Bag Ever!

I have owned my B&R for at least ten years. Ten years of extremely heavy usage and it still looks and performs as new. This is by far the best suitcase I have ever owned. Other bags would eventually succumb to the riggers of the road. I purchased this bag because of the warranty but I have not yet needed it. So many smart design features- starting with the handle outside of the bag and the ratchet-style expansion mechanism. Can really fit a lot of stuff when necessary. I cannot recommend this bag highly enough.

Amazing bag. I’ve got so much more space now and still can’t use this as a carry on

Best suitcase for old traveling Hippies!

This is by FAR the best carry-on I have ever owned. I love that I can fill it to the BRIM with filled compression cubes, then I can squish them down EVEN FURTHER so it still counts as a carry-on! It has an AMAZING amount of room, and rolls easily even when I hitch it my rolling walker! Of course, when I bought it there was only Boring Black in stock, but a tube of white gesso and a 12 pack of Posta Paint markers and I fixed that right up! After all, just cuz I fit into the financial bracket to buy buy a high-end lifetime- guaranteed suitcase DOESN’T mean I have to have, you know, ‘class’…

Love my Briggs and Riley

Overall, I love this case. I am an airline pilot, so I need a case that I live out of and depend on. I love the flat bottom. I can easily pack enough for a 7 day trip and the front pocket swallows my 17" laptop. The bag fits easily into the overhead of a CRJ regional jet. It is a tough bag that is well built, but it has one caveat. The wheels. I didn't like how the bag rolled with the factory wheels, which were also noisy. I changed the wheels to 72mm inline skate urethane wheels with ABEC9 bearings. Now, my case glides effortlessly through the airport. I am very happy now, and that's why I gave it 5 stars.

Packing ease

This suitcase is so easy to pack and holds much more than other carry-ons.

Just by the bag! …… Then change the wheels.

I work as an airline pilot in the United States. I’ve had my previous bag, which was a Luggage Works executive series 22” two wheel roller for the last 7 1/2 years. I’ve had my Briggs and Riley 22” expandable baseline bag now for just about a month. This trip was the first time I’ve needed to use the expand/collapse feature. I was able to pack 6 days of clothes (including 6 days of gym clothes plus gym shoes) and my toiletries with ease. I’m not a small guy either - 6’2 and 300 lbs, my clothes really do take up some space an and are heavier than others I fly with. I have to say the B&R bag is great. I had hesitations before I purchased this bag though. When I travel for work (avg 15 days a month, every month) I always have 3 bags and I wasn’t sure the baseline could handle the weight. I bring my flight bag, which now hangs on the accessory strap at front and bottom, my lunch box/cooler which sits on top, over the handles, and of course the main luggage. I am happy to say so far I have not noticed any problem with the front accessory strap pulling too much weight over the top expand/collapse mechanism inside the bag. This was my main concern before I bought the bag. It’s working just fine. I really do love the build quality and how lightweight this bag is. Even my previous bag was mostly a plastic construction and it held up really well, but this B&R bag is much less weight. The only problem that I had with the B&R bag is the wheels. They are a rubber outer (good), but a hollow plastic inner (bad). So when you walk or pull the bag over anything other than completely smooth and flat hard surface it is very loud. For example, crossing over the threshold on a moving walkway or outside of the airport on a concrete sidewalk, anything really. Today I also switched over the wheels that came on the Briggs and Riley with those that come on luggage works, which are all solid rubber. You just need an Allen/hex wrench and 5 minutes time you swap wheel and inner bushings and bearings and done. Easy. They new wheels are so much quieter. I have no other complaints about the bag besides the wheels. I think it’s worth the money. 7 1/2 years time from now will really tell the story, so I guess it’s wait and see…..

Almost Perfect

This bag is fantastic inside and out except for the plastic wheels. Two wheel rollers in this price range should have urethane wheels only.
