I love the way it specifies it's "Suitable for ladies", what sort of pointless info is that? :rotfl:

I don't think i'd walk down the road dragging one of those behind me but, if they were to advertise a bag as suitable for men, you can just imagine the uproar.

I have the pink and white version of this - its brilliant! Because its not a rigid bag you can stuff loads in, it fits into the hand luggage guides at the airports, and its light too. I've had no problem either carrying it with the handles, or pulling it along behind me on its wheels. I've had mine for 2 years, its used every couple of months, and its been on 4 return flights with me.

eta - I don't know how it would hold up if you were constantly using it, wheeling it around pavements/roads (like if you were using it every day for college etc), but for my purposes its great (car to departure gate, arrivals gate to transfer, transfer to hotel, sometimes with a 10-15 minute wheel on pavements).

I have a similar one in grey from Argos. It's good as a holdall but the handle is very flimsy and not very good at wheeling on uneven surfaces or anything other than a straight line!

I have taken it on holiday and it is a good hand luggage size.

- I'm surprised Martin allowed it into the weekly email given the number of negative 1 star reviews for it on the Argos website.. (there's a handful of 5 star reviews, some might be genuine,but others seem suspicious to me)

The link's not working for me, but I think this is the one my friend brought on a weekend in Paris. It was cabin baggage, yet had developed a hole by the time we reached the hotel. The handle wasn't really long enough, and seeing her O/H trying to wheel it was very funny... the slightest bump or turn and it was rolling from side to side.

The contents were in danger of falling out of the hole by the time we got back to Blighty, so it went back!
