Samsonite Freestyler Nolan

Advantages: quality
Disadvantages: cost

...If you want something that's going to last you forever and if you want to get quality luggage, go for SAMSONITE. You may be thinking that you are going to be spending a bomb on something that is totally uneccessary a total peripheral to your travels but let me tell you that investing in a samsonite is going to save you more moeny than you think. I only wish I could have gotten mine a little earlier just to save more money.

Advantages: light
Disadvantages: everything else

...Samsonite Starwalker Cheap very thin plastic shell, no security (all round zipper with 3 digit combo lock) very flexable. Fabric zip cover bound to get caught on baggage handling equipment. Costs way too much (far more than Delsey), looks just like the stuff they sell in Woolworths at £20 for a set. Do you realy want to look this common and have luggage thats almost certain to fail quickly. If you travel occasionaly and then by car/coach its probably OK but if you travel by air this is clearely not intended for you, its way too fragile and thin to stand any chance of stsnding up to any significant amount of wear. The whole thing just screams cheap, tatty and downmarket, the biggest suprise is the cost, its truly eye watering. There should be an option to give no stars, a 1 star rating is way too high for this. One to avoid.... Read review

...To all potential buyers of Samsonite Suitcases I purchased two Samsonite hard shell Suitcases aprox two years agoe they were damaged by the airline .They were sent back three times to samsonite repair dept ,To cut a long story short I was told airline damage was not covered by guarantee , I only brought Samsonite suitcases because I thought they were the strongest .Iwas told by Samsonite repair dept that if I wanted guaranteed suitcasesror airline use I should have brought. BRIGS AND RILEY SUITCASES.as they are covered for airline travel. Iwas given the telephone number of a mr barry sharp 07836258913 who sells Samsonite cases to the shops he may be able to help and advise you more than I many thanks aconcerned pensioner PS Iam still hoping the matter will be settled....
