Hi all -just that really. Would like to upgrade our current (falling apart but cost less than a tenner each) wheeled cabin bags - replacements need to fit easy jet's size requirements and I'd like wheely cases rather than carry bags. Would be very grateful for any recommendations! Thanks.

I got some last year, called something like worlds lightest case, they sell them in Argos & matalan

We've each got one of these. They are light and easy to pull along, and have a good amount of space. My 7yo dragged his along all by himself throughout a recent long haul trip with three stopovers.

I got an underseat wheeled carry on from samsonite recently. Well priced in the sale and loads of pockets.

I'm not sure if they still do them, but ikea did cabin sized cases for around £12. We've got a couple of them and they've stood up to going in the hold as well as several other trips as cabin luggage.

Which (last year) had relatively cheap Debenhams ones as a Best Buy, and I've been very happy with them. Sturdy (they get sat on!), safen for EasyJet, easy to pull (6yo can manage one) and easy to pack. These ones: m.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_36536+T44185_-1

The ones recommended by Nancy above are good. You can also get them in Argos. In addition to them being really light, they have good internal capacity as the handle goes round the outside of the case instead of through the back like a lot of others. I've had one for years and it's still in perfect conditon despite even going in the hold on several flights.
