Antler New Size Zero Trolley Case

I own numerous cases and bag ,some more useful than others! One of the best cases I have ever bought is one made by Antler. The so called size zero small trolley case is designed to be suitable for use as a carry on bag.

The bag is made of strong 302 x 600 denier polyester and feels very durable. It is also very lightweight weighing just 2.4 kgs. It measures 56 x 35 x 23 cm with the handle retracted,so is within the accepted cabin size for many airlines. It is always important to check before you fly as cabin baggage sizes vary depending on the airline.

The bag has 2 wheels with a retractable aluminium handle. The handle is operated by a push button and can be zipped inside a flap when not in use. The handle glides out with ease and the case is a doddle to pull. There is a decent sized front pocket that can be locked with the supplied TSA approved padlock. There is a grab handle at the top of the case made of thick padded fabric.

The corners of the case have protectors fitted and as this will hopefully help to prolong the life of the case.

Inside the case is fully lined and has elastic straps to keep everything in place. There is a long mesh pocket that can be zipped closed. This is great for keeping small items safe. The lid on the case has a full size pocket with zip closure.

This case looks small from the outside but is is really amazing how much it can take! I have used it as a weekend bag when visiting friends via the train. It is so light I have no problem lifting it and it glides along smoothly. I managed to pack several shirts, 2 pairs of jeans, a jumper, wash bag,1 pair of sandals plus a pair of shoes in addition to underwear,pjs and a book. The case still had room and closed with ease.

I have used the case for a long haul flight and found it great to be able to carry all my important documents as well as camera and charger plus a change of clothes . I always carry my swimming costume as cabin baggage as it takes me ages to find one that fits well and I would hate it to go astray!

I really cant remember how much I paid for this case but remember I bought it from my local department store about a year ago. It is now on sale for around £120,not cheap but this is a high quality case that will hopefully lasts for many years. It also comes with a 10 year warranty against faulty workmanship.
