My mum wants a suitcase for Xmas... where to buy??

[Beetie1]

My mum has asked for a nice new carryon suitcase for Christmas. What are good brands of suitcase or where can I look? Have you got one that you love? Extra points awarded if it also looks good.

Debenhams have a half price sale and were cheaper than anywhere else I looked
So great bright colors so they’re easily spotted at the airport

Another vote for Debenhams. I bought MIL a gorgeous one from there couple hrs ago and a nice soap bag to match.

Which airline does she tend to travel on? They all have slightly different size limits so check she could use it on board. I like the Debenhams Tripp ones too but just check the size carefully.

I will have a look at Debenhams thank you.

I don't think there's a airline that she travels on more than others as she tends to do a mix of long and short haul each year.

Samsonite all the way

TKMaxx is worth a look.

Defo Samsonite

TKMaxx - fantastic selection and great value.

Tk max has all sorts of brands

I always buy Tripp from Debenhams. Also samsonite you can't go wrong with.

Go for brand over fashion. Fashionable suitcases are usually cheap crap.

Antler suitcases are very good, I have two I use all the time and both have lasted a long time.

I've seen them being sold in TK Maxx recently so definitely worth a look there

Debenhams have good offers on, but my favourite suitcases have been from M&S I think looking on line is the best idea as the shop seem to have less in store thus time of year. Also look at John Lewis.

Tripp suitcases from Debenhams are lovely. Samsonite also fab but £££

Samsonite, but in the past I had some very good Delsey cases. I always go for a clamshell hard case.

But baggage is always in the sales so personally would never buy before Christmas!

Another vote for Tripp luggage from Debenhams and they currently have some at 50% and more off. Their overnight bags/holdalls are also really sturdy.

Another vote for TKMaxx, always a great selection in our one!

What is your budget

Rimowa are fabulous

I bought Samsonite for my mum but TKmaxx have some beautiful ones. They had a range called Halina or Helena, they are gorgeous!

Budget wise - up to £100 but the cheaper the better though I still want decent quality.

River island had really pretty ones but I'm not convinced about the sizes for flying

more statement than practical?

I buy Samsonite from to TK Max but am told Tripp are good too.?

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I had a look on the Debenhams website at their sale and went for this one: https://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod1070111000136536+T450433-1
