Samsonite Kids Suitcases (Penguin, Ladybird etc)

Thinking of getting two of these for our trip to Paris next week.

They are very expensive but I am hoping they will be more robust than the cheaper versions etc. Wondered if anyone had them? Are they worth the extra cash? And is the handle OK for an adult to pull them when little legs give up?

Thanks

mine have the ladybird ones and they love them however if the kids are stil smallish ythen there is a case which is like a ride on toy, kids sitm on them and parents pull em along!

but the samsonite ones are def worth the money imo!

Thanks nearlythere. I think I will bite the bullet and order a ladybird and a penguin then. Gulp! I just have to look at it as a longterm investment. Don't want to throw money away on something that won't last very long.

Do you find the handle long enough for you to pull?

Thinking of getting them from urchin but they had no cut off for free postage that I can see so a bit annoyed about that. Need them for next week though so need to get them from somewhere who will deliver quickly!

My 2 have the giraffe (quite a big one, the handle is fine for an adult to use, and also the penguin in the size below(handle is lower but still ok for me to use). I love them to bits, they are 3 years old now and still look new, the giraffe definatly fits quite a lot in. I also found that having the slightly smaller size mean that it fits inside the bigger one for storage.
