Please recommend me a suitcase

[Rascalsandradishes]

I've seen so many suitcases online and I'm not sure which one to buy. I need 5 for our first family holiday abroad.

Budget is around £50
Medium sized (70cm ish)

Any recommendations?

I've looked at Dunelm, Argos, M&S, Asda etc there are lots that look fine but I am overwhelmed by it all.

Have you got a TKMaxx near you? They always have lots at this time of year and then you can see them in real life.

I don't, unfortunately.

Honestly these are the best suitcases we've ever had! 4 years in with a serious amount of travelling and still immaculate. Light but very sturdy.

Primark sell the iT luggage in that price range

Matalan usually have a good selection of cases to.

Decathlon have good, cheap, lightweight ones in various sizes

Tripp full circle suitcases are the best I've ever owed - the wheels are very smooth and will move in all directions upright and while being pulled https://www.tripp.co.uk/suitcases/soft-suitcases/c215

The medium size is £55 and there seems to be a 10% off voucher if you sign up for emails that would bring it within your budget.

It's worth paying a bit extra for better quality.

My previous Aerolite only lasted c.5 years before it was cracked. And that covered Covid when it was not manhandled by airport baggage handlers!
I've now got an Amalfi from M&S. Slightly above your budget, but it's got a 10-year guarantee.

No make, just don't buy one in black. Replaced mine with a blue one and so much easier to spot on the airport carousel.
