The Holidays are right around the corner, and you're going to need the best of the best to get through this stressful season full of travel. When I tell you that I've gone through tons of luggage, you won't even believe how many. But the day this carry-on from Quince arrived at my apartment, everything changed. I've tested countless brands, both affordable and pricey, and without a doubt, this Quince carry-on blew them all out of the running.
Known for sustainably made and affordably priced items, Quince is a brand you've probably already heard of. While their clothes and bedding are what they're well known for, their luggage NEEDS to be on your radar. Not only is the 21-inch carry-on hard shell suitcase affordable compared to many luxury luggage brands like Away and Rimowa, the quality is phenomenal. I've rolled it through countless airports this year, testing it on European cobblestone streets, muddy Washington state roads, and even ventured onto the damp and rocky terrain of the Peruvian Amazon jungle. Believe me when I tell you I put this carry-on through everything possible, and it still looks brand new to this day.
It's made with a sturdy polycarbonate shell that'll withstand anything you throw at it. It also features Japanese-crafted Hinomoto 360° spinner wheels and water-resistant 75D polyester pongee lining. But that's not even the best part. The interior consists of compression panels to maximize space and a removable laundry bag located at the bottom interior of the luggage. And the cherry on top (not that it even needs one) is the magic-like eraser it comes with to clean any scuffs and grime off your Quince luggage.
So what are you waiting for? Get to shopping before the holidays are here!

Quince Carry-On Luggage Reviews
"The outer shell of this suitcase is pretty sturdy. I used to travel a lot for work and I just recently went on a month-long trip, and despite being thrown around, there are no scuff marks or dents. It comes with a sponge to wipe off dirt. The wheels are super smooth, and the body is balanced enough to not tip over when there's a heavy backpack on top."
"This bag looks great. I love that it has all the features of more expensive brands without the price tag."
"I used this suitcase all over my summer European vacation this summer, not only did it look great, it barely got and scuffs and scratches after 3 weeks. It is very comparable to the away bag my friends had."
"I love this bag! It's super cute, and the wheels are SO smooth. Seriously I ran through the airport with this thing and it glided the whole way. Since it's light I do worry about scuffs, but I got a suitcase cover that does help with that through TSA, and the magic eraser it comes with also seems to work. Highly recommend this bag!"
"Love this suitcase. It's the perfect carry-on size and the compartments inside are great for keeping myself organized. 10 out of 10."
