I have had one of these bags for years. You can stuff quite a bit into it, and if you don't fill up the outer pockets too full you can even use this as a carry on most airlines. This is all I use for month vacations in Europe with a small backpack. Finally, last spring the airlines managed to break the handle on the bottom which doubles as a stand so it stands upright when needed. The bag was still good, but for the great price I just decided to replace it with the same model. Quality looks as good as my first bag.
