Samsonite Tote-A-Ton 32.5" 3-Piece Duffel Set

The best. Fold up small. Very durable. I sometimes use to put luggage into when I ship it to protect luggage. I also use these for moving a lot and I can put so much in

June 9, 2016 Product Update: I reviewed the Duffle below and wanted to add one more picture to the collection. I'm heading to Nepal tomorrow and collected 27 pairs of running sneakers to deliver to the mountain running community. There is an organization there that collects gently used or new sneakers to donate to mountain runners of all ages. Nepalese live on less than $2 a day. The earthquake is still leaving a lasting impression on the small villages that have been neglected by the government. Anyway, you'll be able to see how this duffle allows me to transport lots of sneakers! Both EMS and REI have their own packable duffle bag which is used to protect backpacks while flying to your destination. They stuff inside of a their pocket and measure approximately 8x10x2. EMS's bag is $49 and 38" long. REI's bag is $29 and 36" long. After purchasing both I found the Samsonite Tote-a-ton and returned the more expensive bags. The tote-a-ton is cheap in $ but not in quality. The durable material is the same as the more expensive duffles with two sturdy handles to lift. There's outside pocket and inside pocket, too. I have an Osprey Aura AG 65L. The pack is approximately 31 inches long. It fits perfectly into the duffle with room to spare. I haven't actually packed the backpack but feel confident it will still fit into the duffle. I am packrafting in Alaska this summer. I need something that will safely get my backpack and gear to Alaska. While in Alaska I will use my backpack for day trips/rafting and my gear will go into the duffle which will be hauled, by the outfitter, to the next location. Perfect solution! Plus, in the future, when I travel and don't need the duffle, it collapses perfectly and can be stuffed into my pack without taking up a lot of space. I have a friend traveling to Nepal in March. I showed her the duffle and she's purchasing one to protect her backpack, too. Great deal. We'll see how it holds up in June and I'll report back then :-) UPDATE July 14, 2015: I just returned from my 10 day trip to South Central Alaska. The duffle was perfect for this trip! Just like I mentioned above...the duffle protected my 65L when I checked it on the plane and then I used it to store my gear and clothing while using my backpack for packrafting during the day. The placement of the zipper made the bag easy to get in and out of. I'm not sure how well the material will continue to hold up because it is rather light weight. It was pretty dirty after being checked on the plane. I don't travel regularly so it may be a while before it gets used again. However, the light weight factor can be a plus if you are backpacking and have to stow the duffle in your backpack. I'd still highly recommend it!

I originally bought this bag to protect my huge 65 L backpack during air travel. It's lightweight and compact enough that I could fold it up and keep it in my pack while hiking, but huge enough that I could throw my backpack into it along with all of my gear, and still have room to spare. It was really difficult to carry around the airport when so heavy, but it was a price I was willing to pay. My boyfriend didn't think this bag was a good idea and bought a bag specifically made for air travel with backpacks, and his had no handles so it was impossible to carry and also ripped, so he won't be using it again. My bag came through the whole trip and both flights in pristine condition, and I now use it all the time to go between home and college when I don't have time or am too lazy to pack nicely. I throw everything and I'm good to go. I've never run out of room with this bag! Now, a year later, we are buying this bag again (in the same pretty turquoise color) because my family had an exchange student this year and she needed another suitcase to bring home all of the clothes and belongings she acquired this year. She had no idea what to do because she needed something roomy and very lightweight so she could take as much as possible home without exceeding the weight limit, and she didn't want to spend $100 on another suitcase. Luckily last weekend I came home from college the day before I had an international flight and I didn't have time to plan what I would pack, so I threw everything I might want to bring in this bag and drove home. I came in the door talking about what a good purchase this bag was and how useful and affordable it is, and now she has a solution to her packing problem as well! This bag is huge, you can literally fit a person in it. If you're in a similar situation, I highly suggest this bag! You won't be disappointed. If you're looking for a bag that offers a lot of organization, is small enough for an overnight stay, or keeps its shape, this is not the bag for you. If you want something so big you'll never fill it up, lightweight, durable, and takes up no room, this is your bag! (Just make sure you get a lock for the zippers or tie them together if you're going to be flying, because they may come undone otherwise)

Bought this hoping it was the max bag size for checked luggage on my international relocation trips; but it is actually smaller. Pros, Bag has been great to store all my smaller travel bags in the garage/attic & great as a 2nd checked bag for extras for bedding, towels, shoes, etc that folds into pretty much nothing for storage (why I gave it 4 stars). Also handy for checking my travel backpack and protecting the straps, etc as the bag has 2 zippers and fully opens. Cons, the bag has absolutely no structure, so everything flops about, I use a cardboard boxes or space saver bags inside to "secure" the contents- but keep in mind that using cardboard boxes has resulted in it being "searched" every-single time by US customs on my overseas travel trips, so I always stick spare packing tape for the boxes inside the bag just in-case. Luggage straps just slip off.I never put anything of "real" value in the bag (because of the structure thing) The handles are so thin, that for the size of the bag, they really should be wider and have hardware for a shoulder strap..just awkward. The small front pocket is useless as there is no zipper and everything just falls out, and after 4 trips I noticed small "holes" from abrasion damage likely from baggage handling. Would not repurchase specifically for travel, but have found it handy for the price. Would recommend as a storage bag for lightweight large items or for other travel bags and large backpacks.

Very roomy strong and reliable I love it

I've been a loyal customer of these Samsonite bags for 15 years, and they have consistently impressed me. Here’s why they have earned my long-term trust: First and foremost, the durability-to-weight ratio is outstanding. The bags are incredibly lightweight yet tough. As a frequent traveler, every kilogram matters, so I made the switch from heavy suitcases to these bags and never looked back. It was the perfect decision. Secondly, maintenance is a breeze. They are very easy to clean, which is essential after any trip. Thirdly, I've started using them for storage at home, and it's genuinely fantastic. They stack well and keep my belongings safe and organized. Fourth, I love the range of stylish and recognizable colors they offer. Spotting my luggage on the carousel is always quick and easy—no more confusing my black bag with someone else's! A small but useful tip: I highly recommend purchasing the accessory straps to keep the handles together. It makes carrying and maneuvering the bag much more convenient. A final note on quality: I still have some of my original bags from over 10 years ago. While they've held up well, I can confidently say that the newer models are even more robust. Samsonite has clearly worked on improving the strength of their products. A well-deserved 5-star rating from a very satisfied customer.

Super useful bag for checking on airlines. It is accepted on Spirit and carries a ton. I’ve had it for 5 years (bought here in 2021). I travel to visit family out of the country and sometimes I have to take things to them and bring nothing back, so it’s nice that it folds up small enough to fit into my personal item. The seams are strong and the zipper is top notch. I constantly overpack and fill it to the limits and it’s still hold on strong. At the time I bought it, I think I paid about $20 and it was the best money I’ve ever spent on Amazon. Highly recommended!!

Love these bags! Light weight to take on trips to pay for bags on return trip only! They last long this is my 4th bag

Samsonite is the best in luggage and suitcases, this bag is strong and big, very impressed with the quality. Bought 4 pieces for a car holiday trip from the Netherlands to Spain. Expect these bags to last a lifetime.

Excelentes maletas como reserva, BUENA CAPACIDAD Y DURABILIDAD. Pero no seas como yo que la preste y no devolvieron.

Es como se ve

This bag tore along two seams the first time that I packed it. I was hoping for a refund from Amazon but they will not allow it. Please be aware that this item is poorly made and Amazon may not give you a refund when it breaks

Lo use para mis bolsas de mano y salir y entraron unas 10 a 15. Esta amplio, buenisima calidad. Super recomendado Comprare otros 2 para almacenar cosas del hogar.
