Reviews

Good purchase

"Well made. Good size. Like the ability to expand. Would, however, like to see some suggestions on how to pack - always useful."

— Gloria G. (5/5)

Need Fulfilled

"I was in need of a smaller bag for short trips (two to three nights); the Expandable Cabin Bag has met that need. I can comfortably pack most of the clothing I need for two or three days, along with my Dopp kit in this sturdy bag. The shoulder strap is an essential feature for me, especially when traveling with the bag on public transportation. I’ve only made one trip with the bag, but I’m very pleased with it so far."

— Daniel G. (4/5)

Great bag!

"This bag was a great purchase because of the expandability of the bag and the ease of the zipper movement."

— Jwyanza H. (5/5)

It's a HOMERUN!

"It works perfect for my needs. Everything fit in it and was easy to find. I especially liked the easy access to it under the seat in front of me. Thank you for this option. It works well with my Essential 22" Carry-On Expandable Spinner. Traveling before i got the Briggs & Riley luggage was awful!"

— melissa f. (5/5)

Recommend

"Love the fabric and durability and ease of wheels! Holds so much which was the goal and love the compartments."

— Chris C. (5/5)

Great Cabin Bag

"An amazing cabin bag! I carry all the items I would normally carry in a laptop bag or backback and I can carry a change of clothes as well. And there’s room for more should you open the expandable zippers."

— Steve K. (5/5)

Replacing my 22 year old B&R…

"with this bag. It’s got a little more volume, but it’s better organized and lighter. I travel every week as my job, and this one fits nicely under the seat in front and also fits well in the 737 flight deck. Balances well on top of the Baseline also."

— Gina M. (5/5)

Zipper not durable

"Disappointed with the zipper on the expandable bag! Second zipper broke, last bag Briggs suggested I buy the newer expandable bag & gave me credit for bag, indicating they couldn’t fix the zipper. So I just bought a tote from somewhere else."

— Joni (2/5)

Esthetically it’s nice. Would NOT recommend

"I like the expanded version. However, it’s bulky and flops side to side causing your bad to tip over or the hook to get twisted depending on if you have your bad attached to the roller bag with your hook. Also the bag strap is NOT a game changer it’s not practical. I will hurt your shoulder despite having the padding. I would only recommend this bag if you’re going only attach it to the larger bag for travel the inside compartments are small and rip easily. I am not a fan of this specific model. It possibly would help if it came with wheels because if you carry this as a single and walking through an airport it’s an awful experience. Just an honest review."

— Tonyeka B. (3/5)

Just Perfect for Carrying the Essentials!

"A fabulous addition to my B&R collection. Perfect for a carry-on with space for a change of clothes. Love that it is expandable because that came in handy. Like the rest of the collection, the material is sturdy and durable. The design is perfect - petite yet roomy. Would have loved the pockets to be a bit larger inside to hold a larger iPhone, but that is a first-world problem! Love this bag!"

— Renee H. (4/5)
