For the price I was expecting more.  It does not seem that well put together though many reviewers raved about it.  I waited too long to return it.  It does not hold as much as my old Ricardo of the same dimension.  My husband bought a Travelpro version for less and it seems far sturdier and certainly holds more with same dimension.  The wheels really stick out on this one (vulnerable to breakage??).  They are a little sticky on carpet. This was purchased for a trip to Europe.  I will update after the trip.
