    What’s the most attractive part of this luggage? The price? The compression? Let’s talk about it below!

    If this bag had the handle of the voyager…..WHEW!!!

    • @ItsTheKellys

      Right? We are traveling with a wide handle on our current trip (level8 captain aluminum pro) and it’s wonderful

    I actually love the yellow highlight. It's very attractive. I have the blue trunk. It has very clean lines.

    Great piece of luggage!! Lauren, you mentioned that you pack your odds and ends in the side with the zipper, which makes so much sense, as zippered cover holds it all secure. Am I crazy to think that luggage designers should put the zippered cover on the OTHER side of the bag? With the indentations that the handle makes, THAT's where I like to put my odd-shaped items that are either shoes or items in small pouches. Every time I pack, I wish there was a zippered cover on that side to hold in my smaller odds and ends. Maybe it's just me? Might need that bag, as there's the compression I appreciate. Thanks for the great review, as always!

    • @morgenkelly8642
      @morgenkelly8642 3 месяца назад +2

      I have thought the same thing! I'd also like to see a trunk bag with one deep section rather than the traditional 2 sides. I think it would give more versatility for packing shoes and other bulky items you might need.

    • @ItsTheKellys
      @ItsTheKellys  3 месяца назад +2

      @morgenkelly8642 a lot of large size trunks have uneven sides like that. One shallow side and one deep side. But they are big, not carry on.

    Thank you for the review. I wanted the Monos hybrid but this is the first piece of luggage I have seen, that I would consider purchasing instead.

    Nice review, but one question, is that connecting buckle for the Y-strap plastic or metal?

  • @Mercy_Pants
    @Mercy_Pants 21 день назад +1

    I got the 24inch in blue. I think I’ll grab the carryon next. I absolutely love the 24!

    For me, weight is a big deal and side handles. As a small (older) woman the less weight in the actual luggage the better. I don't want to rely on anyone else to lift my luggage in the overhead bin or even in the back of my car if I'm driving. So, I'm not sure about this one. I will say I have a huge case of bag envy when I watch your videos. Silly really since not to long ago I gave at least 10 bags of various sizes and shapes to our local women's shelter so obviously I don't need any more.

    This is amazing! I love the idea of trunk luggage. Too bad I already bought a level 8 carry on a few months ago. I would have bought this instead.
    As always, great video. Love that color of blue on you! ❤

  • @lyricneeder
    @lyricneeder 3 месяца назад

    Thanks Lauren, another great review. This looks like a really nice bag, any chance they'll make a matching 28 inch trunk?

  • @IntriguedLioness
    @IntriguedLioness 3 месяца назад

    I am so spoiled having ditched wheels long ago that even 4kg seems so heavy to me. Not that I would be carrying it through an airport but with weight restrictions...
    And although I often chuckle at reviews concentrating on colors I must admit I'd feel a little limited with only black and navy choices. If the black was more of a charcoal or if it didn't have that bizarre yellow bumblebee stripe maybe it wouldn't bother me.
    Rimowa has always been on my wish list since my checked heavy bag day but I can appreciate that more and more companies are now introducing trunks in polycarbonate!

    Thank you so much Lauren, for all your very informative luggage reviews! I was ready to pull the trigger on either the Monos Hybrid carry on, or the July Carry On Pro Trunk. This Hegent model looks like to will work just fine for a much more reasonable price. My only concern is, does Level 8 stand behind their products as well as Monos & July does?

    • @ItsTheKellys
      @ItsTheKellys  2 месяца назад

      Their warrantee isn’t a lifetime one. I haven’t heard a lot about their customer service. I think July is the best when it comes to that, from my own experience. But it’s also a bag for almost 1/2 the price

    Can someone inform me on how to reset the latches on this suitcase to my own combination please

  • @tedbellWRV
    @tedbellWRV 13 дней назад

    Are the latches made of plastic? A reviewer on the Level8 website said they were plastic, not metal.

    I’ve watched more luggage and packing tip videos for planning my upcoming trip to france for 7 weeks. I’m going for carry on only (everyone i know is betting i can’t do it). Lol. Anyway, i always unzip the lining that covers the handle and put my flat shoes there and other small things like socks. That keeps dirt away from the clothes. Thanks for the review of this L8 bag. I have a different version that has the laptop access on the front but now that I’m not traveling with a computer i think i want a bag like this.

    • @ItsTheKellys
      @ItsTheKellys  2 месяца назад

      Good tip :) and yes, I’m not a fan of pro/front pocket bags, even when I travel with a laptop. It takes up space and I always keep it in my personal item Incase they gate check it!

  • @bellebourbonoftheball
    @bellebourbonoftheball 3 месяца назад +2

    I love these videos! Now I'm torn between this and the Freeloop. Any advice?

    • @ItsTheKellys
      @ItsTheKellys  3 месяца назад

      It basically comes down to wanting glossy luggage or not. It usually needs a protector. But it is much cuter 😂

    • @JLB0880
      @JLB0880 Месяц назад

      Did you decide? I just got the Freeloop a few days ago and I’m pretty impressed - I was able to fit a 13 piece capsule wardrobe and a pair of Birks completely in one side! I also like that it’s 2 lbs lighter than the one in this video. BUT the scratch proof surface of this one has me wondering if I want to exchange too!

    • @bellebourbonoftheball
      @bellebourbonoftheball Месяц назад +1

      @JLB0880 I think I am going with the Hegent. While the colors are not as fun, I like how the one side is a full zipper all the way around. Also... scratches will make me sad. 😆

    This was a great review and it's beautiful! I'm a new subscriber so forgive me for asking. But have you checked out the MVST Trek? And if not have you considered it?

    • @ItsTheKellys
      @ItsTheKellys  3 месяца назад +1

      I have been trying to review that bag for a long time, but they never answer me unfortunately.

    I have an international trip to Thailand coming up and I was curious on what would be your recommendation for a best option for a personal item (that has the greatest capacity) for an international flight (Turkish Airlines)? If you have a video that addresses this, you could direct me there as well.

      I have a video that goes over types of personal items. I am 100% a backpack girl, and this video explains why:

    Wondering if the height measurement included the wheels?

    • @ItsTheKellys
      @ItsTheKellys  3 месяца назад

      I measure it in person on the outside (wheels and handle) and the inside (packing space)
