Checked Luggage

There are pros and cons to both 2-wheel luggage and 4-wheel luggage. For example, many travelers prefer 4-wheel luggage because it's easy to maneuver and requires less effort. Additionally, you can push it in front of you if you don't feel like holding onto the handle and pulling the bag behind you. However, 4-wheel luggage is usually best on smooth flooring in airports, so it doesn't perform as well as 2-wheel luggage on rougher terrain.

Conversely, 2-wheel luggage is more maneuverable and better off-road since two wheels are more equipped for rough terrain. Still, there are some drawbacks to 2-wheeled luggage. For example, they're less balanced than 4-wheel suitcases, and some may be too wide to wheel through airport aisles.

There are two types of wheels to consider when shopping for a medium-wheeled suitcase: spinner and inline wheels. Spinner wheels rotate 360 degrees, allowing you to maneuver them easily in any direction. However, inline wheels are considered more durable because they don't stick out from the bottom of the luggage, making your luggage more compact. However, spinner wheels are usually best if you prefer maneuverability over durability.

In addition to the type of wheel, you should consider the quality and durability of the wheel and choose one that will work well on different terrains. For example, our checked luggage features all-terrain wheels made from heavy-duty materials to help you navigate through busy airports and bumpy terrain.

A medium-sized suitcase is typically 25-27 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 10 inches tall. However, sizes vary by company. Most medium-sized suitcases can hold up to 75 liters. Medium-sized luggage is larger than carry-on luggage, so airlines will require you to check them. They'll usually hold enough clothing for at least a week, but if you maximize your space, you can fit two weeks' worth of clothing and other items.

No, not all medium luggage with wheels has the same dimensions. The size of your suitcase will vary by type and brand. For example, our Tarmac XE 4-Wheel 26" Luggage is 26 x 15 x 10 inches, while the Cargo Hauler XT 29" Wheeled Duffel is 28.75 x 15 x 13.5 inches.
