    We bought one a couple of weeks ago, used it for our flight and found it be very good. Plenty of room because there is no inner frame for the trolley wheels or handle and the pockets on the outside are really useful for travel documents.
  • I've got the biggest size and I love it! I can fit tonnes more things in it as it's so light to start off with. I've used it for 2 holidays and a few trips in the UK and it's been fine. I also find the pull handle is much easier to manage than the other suitcases I've had as it goes the whole way across the top of the cas so it's easier to rest a bag on, it also makes it easier to pull along. As lijaloo mentioned the pockets on the front are really handy too and are a really good size.

    Hope that helps
    Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you.:p

    We have the cabin size cases and they are brilliant. The handles are full width so they don't twist or tip over when you pull them. They are very light and you can get loads in them. If they are half price then snatch their hands off because they are excellent value even at full price.

    I have the 1.94kg cabin size cases and took them on the Eurostar and TGV trains across Europe. The cases are light and compact, so they are easy to lift up onto the overhead luggage racks.

    Other passengers had to leave their big, heavy, bulky cases on the luggage racks at the end of the carriage but my cases fitted onto every train overhead (above my seat) luggage rack.

    I like them.;)

  • Am thinking of buying the zero range luggage I know it wil be ok for hand luggage but has anyone used it for hold luggage, just wondered if it would be strong enough? I had a hard case and on return from Greece it had a wheel off a pushchair embedded in the front and 2 other large cracks totally ruined.. so how will the cloth ones fair.. anyone know

    I have just bought the cabin size one and it is so light, should be great to use, BUT it does seem rather flimsy I wouldnt buy any other size as I cant see them lasting long in the hold...just my opinion

    hi to all who have bought the sub zero luggage. Can you tell me where you got them from and the size and weight and also how much you paid for them please? It is like a minefield out there trying to compare prices as most of them dont show the sizes up front and you have to go into each one for a description. It would be much appreciated. Need a few so thats why trying to really get them for a good price. Thanks all of you.
