just finished a 7 day trip with bag, and it worked out perfect. i don't like doing laundry on any trip so there has to be 7 days of clothing, shoes, etc. plus my blender, micro towels. protein bottles, granola bars. shaving kit. you get the idea. it fit and came in under 50 lbs. the bag did it all. several airports, taxi's, valet's, thrown into the pickup truck. it still looks brand new and was a great buy. expands, rolls does it all. i bought another one for my wife after my trip.
