One of the reasons I bought this suitcase was the Samsonite name and in the past their suitcases have served me well. Not so with this one. after about the second use one of the zipper tabs had pulled out of the zipper. A couple more flights and another tab was missing... another flight, yet another tab. and these were not the tabs to the front pockets or expander, the first two table to go were the ones to the main compartment. Had this been just one suitcase I would have considered it an anomaly, but we had purchased two 25 inch suitcases and two 19 inch suitcases that this is happening to all lf them. right now out of four suitcases I am missing 6 tabs. If you look at the zipper the problem is obvious; the part of the zipper that holds the tabs is open and if it is sprung even half a millimeter the tab pops right out. As you shop for suitcases keep this in mind and avoid the Samsonite brand.
