Reviews

Should have bought years ago!

"I travel at least two weeks of month if not more. I have tried several brands of suitcases and backpacks. It warnt until my started having back issues that I considered the splurge on Briggs & Riley, specifically because of its J Hook strap system that conveniently attaches to this luggage. I purchased the briefcase as well, giving up carrying a backpack on my luggage or shoulder. It’s so worth it! To not have the weight of a backpack sitting on top of a carry on is fantastic. I thought their patented compression system wouldn’t be as good as it sounds but it is. I have packed a week’s worth of winter clothes in my suitcase, closed it, pushed it down as instructed, and could still get it in the overhead of a regional carrier. Other brands that “expand” I cannot do this with. Highly recommend."

It's beautiful

"I'm a long time Briggs & Riley user and when replacing my 22" case I didn't consider any other label. I have an 18" case that is at least 20 years old and still looks brand new - I do not check it. My old 22" case is still in good shape, but I could not resist getting a new plum suitcase!"

Elizabeth D. (5/5)

Game changer

"This bag is an absolute game changer. As a Flight Attendant, I expect my bags to take some abuse. Having seen other Briggs and Riley bags from other crew, I figured I’d try one out. I’m very thankful I did. It was a very wise investment."

Jonathan S. (5/5)

Solid but needs better wheels

"22 inch carryon has a lot going for it. Exterior pockets are ample and well positioned. No interior pockets. That’s a miss A back pocket in particular would be very useful Lots of usable interior room. Wheels are weak element. They have a bit of pull and drag. Not nearly as fluid as my TravelPro"

M M. (5/5)

Finally, the suitcase I should have purchased a long time ago

"I travel a lot for business and mostly just use a carry on luggage suitcase. I have wore out several suitcases and purchased many I thought would be great and hated. I should have purchased a the Briggs & Riley carry-on a long time ago. This is a solid suitcase and has just the right functionality that I need. I expect this will be the last carry-on that I own."

Ron B. (5/5)

Top of the Line

"This is the top of the line suitcase. The expansion system is the only one on the market! Very versatile. It exceeded my expectations. Life time warranty is a great plus. I highly recommend Briggs & Riley"

Bobby W. (5/5)

Best Luggage Purchase I’ve Ever Made

"This carry-on is easily the nicest piece of luggage I have ever owned. Incredibly functional and exquisite attention to detail. It will accompany me on many journeys in this lifetime, and I am confident it will still be used by my children, when I am too old to travel (though hopefully that’s still many years away🙂)"

Robert E. (5/5)

Amazing Bag

"I bought this carry-on bag for my husband after his Tumi bag was damaged. He travels a lot for work and needed something that looks professional and can handle heavy usage. After a lot of research, I decided Briggs & Riley was the way to go. It's a lot of money, but the lifetime guarantee impressed me - this is a company that stands behind their product. It is by far the nicest piece of luggage we have ever owned. And we are so impressed by the thoughtful design. He doesn't like to check a bag, and will really cram a lot (including a suit) into his carry-on. It's great that this bag can expand and compress to accommodate more clothing and has a separate space for handing clothing. We are very impressed!"

Barbara V. (5/5)

Handles beautifully

"The 22 inch carry on expandable arrived just in time for my 2 and 1/2 week trip through multiple airports. It worked wonderfully. I love the ease of use when wheeling through the airport. I purchased this because I loved the Medium Briggs and Riley and I am so happy to have the pair."

KATHERINE E. (5/5)

Excellent product with excellent performance

"I recently purchased my Briggs and Riley spinner and immediately took it on a trip. I detest checking bags, and this bag is of the smaller, European profile, so I was interested to see if I'd be able to fit everything into the new bag. It was no issue. Everything fit and the bag performed perfectly. From the capacity to the sturdiness, I felt comfortable and confident in the product. I'm planning to buy two more - one for my wife and one for my daughter."

Kevin R. (5/5)

Q&A

"You’re truly getting what you pay for: luggage that's carefully engineered to last."

“It was love at first trip. I've renounced all others and now it's just me and my Briggs & Riley”

“Every detail of this bag, from the zippers to the wheels to the wrinkle-resistant suit compartment, is made to the highest standards”
