Purchased to replace soft Nautica luggage that was damaged by the airlines. Have used all 3 pieces and outside of a couple scratches, it looks just like new. The capacity is great and love that they nest for storage. Super light so helps with weight limits. The carry-on fits perfectly in standard overhead bins and you don't have to worry about someone crushing you bag stuffing something next to it. We'll see how it holds up over the next year of travel.
