The 20-inch suitcase (or 22 inches when measured from the wheels) meets current TSA size standards for carry-on bags and is made from a durable and scratch-resistant ABS material that absorbs shock. Yet despite its tough interior, the Rockland carry-on is extremely lightweight — only 7.5 pounds — meaning that you can pack more of your belongings without having to worry about going over weight limits. The wheels have 360-degree rotation, so moving through the airport is a breeze, while the chrome handle has a soft grip covering for added comfort.

To accommodate sweaters, winter boots, and leggings for your next cold-weather trip, the Rockland suitcase’s interior is lined with mesh and has a zip pocket compartment and straps to help secure your belongings. And If you need a little extra room for souvenirs on the way back, you can expand the suitcase an extra 2 inches using the exterior zipper.

Someone else said that the Rockland London Carry-on is “as light as possible while still having sufficient stiffness in its skin to protect the contents.” They added that “the wheels are just about right, not super sturdy but far better than countless suitcases with flimsy wheels that are common on the market” and that it’s “excellent for the price.”
