High Sierra 36-Inch Drop-Bottom Wheeled Duffel is a perfect travel companion, except it can become too heavy for an airplane, when filled up. It’s made of quality materials and is very durable, has comfortable compartments. The bag is easy to maneuver and handle.

Pros:

Both end pockets are easily accessible.
The balance and the ease of rolling are great.
Built for a lifetime.
The design is great.
The bag is huge.
The quality of the materials is impressive.

Cons:

If you fill this bag completely, you will be over the allowed size for air travel.
The straps and buckles on the sides always get broken by the airlines.

What do people say

Both end pockets are easily accessible from a car trunk or (I expect to find) in the middle of an airport. These are zippered with some mesh to provide a view to what you put in there. But the mesh appears sturdy enough that it will not fall victim to the baggage handlers (I can confirm this after my next plane trips).
The balance and the ease of rolling of this thing are unique. I haven’t ever used a piece of luggage this graceful, and I have some high quality luggage. It is not easy for me to handle most luggage. But this is as easy as they come.
Lastly, it is obvious this is built for a lifetime, and in fact comes with a lifetime warranty. Impressive in and of itself. Just using the zippers is like slamming the door on a fine car. You can feel and hear the difference.

These bags last me about 2 years. That’s 2 years on heavy travel with a fully-packed bag. I’ve never had a problem with a zipper, handle, or wheel with any of the three I’ve owned. I have had them rip and tear, and also just kind of wear through at the edges. But considering the usage I give them, that’s not unexpected. The straps and buckles on the sides always get broken by the airlines – they are in a place that snags easily.
The design is great. The bottom zips open and you have a large flat area when you can lay your pants and folded shirts flat. There are 2 straps here to keep them from sliding around. Then once you zip the top back on, you have a large center area and 2 end pockets with flexible dividers (you can just use all the space for the center compartment if you like.
The bag is huge. You could easily put 7-10 pairs of jeans, 7-10 shirts, some toiletries, sweatshirts, jackets, socks, etc in here with room to spare. The problem is that when packed, it is over the size limit of almost every airline.
