Suitcases

Rockman

My old suitcases have seen better days and I am being nagged by the family to splash out on some new luggage. Can anybody advise of the best place to purchaes good quality suitcases at a reasonable price.

Thanks

I can't advice you about which particular cases but like to make you aware of the importence of their weight. Weight allowance on planes is not great.

When I was looking , Tescos were the best value. They've stood up to 6 flights this year and are wearing well.

A couple of years ago I lashed out on an expensive and well made case which looked the 'business' only to realise that it matters not a jot how expensive the case they don't seem to last any longer than a set from Tesco. Go with the Tesco cases and then when they are the worse for wear its not such a loss to chuck them and buy some more.......

Someone else had a very cheap offer from TJ Hughes if they're one near you. Argos are also usually good for sets.

Matalan have got some nice cases in, or at least they did when I visited a couple of weeks ago.

I have just bought these, by Antler from Argos.

I bought the 31in & 28in and am very happy with them, they have a 5 year garrantee which was the main reason for choosing them, have a locking system (combination & keys) are lightweight, I think they look good too.

I bought some for a similar price last year but the zips broke after just one trip so I would stay away from zipped cases, unless they have a decent garrantee.
