Holy grail of luggage

5 replies

I'm not sure if what I'm looking for exists as I cannot find it!

I'm after a luggage set, don't mind if hard or soft sided, with 4 wheels that are slightly recessed. After my case came back to me with a wheel broken I'd rather they don't stick out. I also find 4:wheels easier to push than pulling 2.

Does recessed 4 wheel luggage exist??

I don't know the answer, but I've got a standard push-along case from M&S that has got a 10 year guarantee.
At a rough guess, it's survived about 50 flights in 5 years so far with no damage.

The merax ones are great and are very reasonably priced. We've had ours for a good few years now and they've survived many plane journeys with no damage Merax Flieks Luggage Sets TSA 3 Piece Expandable Spinner Suitcase Lightweight 20 24 28 inch, A-Black 3-Piece (20/24/28) Hardside : Amazon.co.uk: Fashion

These do look good as the wheels don't stick too far out. I've had two separate journeys home by tube from Heathrow trying to drag a full case with a broken off wheel.

My husband has a Briggs and Riley expandable. Super quality.

They're tucked nicely in which was the selling point for me, I had one from IT luggage (I think) before these, and the wheel snapped off
