Professional grade tough, highly recommended.

  • By Arnold from Saint Petersburg FL USA on Thursday, August 1, 2024
  • Pros: Toughened version of a spinner, built to last.
  • Cons: Any kind of spinner has just a bit more space taken by wheels.
  • Review: I bought this spinner for my wife, because the ladies seem to prefer the spinner format. Research indicated that this version has better wheels than the retail near-equivalent. As a frequent traveler, I know that wheels eventually wear and are often a first point of failure. These are like hard rubber rollerblade wheels, similar to my high mileage rollaboard, and definitely an upgrade. It rolls smooth as silk, and my wife was delighted.

Very durable - great choice

  • By Cindyluwho from Ontario OR USA on Tuesday, April 12, 2022
  • Pros: Very durable fabric, zipper and wheels.
  • Cons: Not a lot of interior space due to all the amenities. Tips over easily when full.
  • Review: This bag has performed well. It is build extremely well. However, since it is so substantially built there is not as much room to put items inside. Also tips over easily when full even not using the expansion feature. I would buy it again keeping in mind it is small. Will probably buy the larger one to have more space.

Quality has dropped.

  • By Steve B from Flower Mound TX (DFW) USA on Thursday, July 7, 2016
  • Pros: Recognized good name
  • Cons: Diminished quality
  • Review: The quality of the Crew 5 has dropped considerably from the previous two I have owned. The "hardware", zippers, structure (frame), and overall appearance--all noticeably of poorer quality. Too bad. Frequent travelers do not select luggage based on price. There was no need to cheapen what was a great bag with genuinely high quality.

  • By Carwin from South Orange NJ USA on Thursday, April 7, 2022
  • Pros: Perfect for overhead storage when fully packed regardless of aircraft type.
  • Cons: Falls forward if not held by the handle.
  • Review: The only issue with this product that when it's packed it falls forward when not being held. I actually thought of returning it for a different one. When the front wheels are facing backwards, the Travelpro falls forward.

Falls over when expanded

  • By A Customer on Monday, May 15, 2023
  • Pros: Rugged and lots of pockets
  • Cons: Falls over
  • Review: I love the laptop pocket and the handle is comfortable. The big issue is that when its expanded it will fall over. This means having to lean it against something at all times so it doesn't take someone out. If they just made the wheel base larger so that the wheels are under the case I would still be using it.
