Samsonite Freeform 24″ Spinner Review

· ·

For our upcoming trip to Disney World we are flying to Orlando, this will be our family’s very first time flying together on an airplane. The kids are super excited while Mom and Dad are a little apprehensive, although I’m sure it will all go very smoothly. Because we’ve never flown anywhere, we’ve never needed decent luggage. When you drive on vacation you can just shove your junk into whatever bag you have. So, to say we needed to purchase some luggage would be an understatement.

We did a lot of research to find luggage that not only met our requirements of durability and maneuverability we also had to take into account standard airline-checked luggage requirements. Most airlines have a luggage size limit of 62 linear (total) inches (which means the sum total of your bag’s length, width, and height) and 50 lbs per checked bag. We found several nice options that fit all of the requirements but after reading reviews and comparing prices we settled on the Samsonite Freeform 24″ Spinner.

Final Thoughts

Samsonite is one of the most well-known brands in the luggage industry and is constantly producing top-quality and innovative products. The Freeform 24″ Spinner is no exception, the quality and craftsmanship of this luggage are ideal. Even though there aren’t many interior compartments or accessories, I like the amount of space and flexibility it offers. I was surprised with how much we could actually fit into each compartment and still be under the standard weight limit. I can already tell that the exterior is prone to scuffs and scratches but a well-worn suitcase is simply the badge of an avid traveler. A few scratches are OK as long as the structural integrity of the suitcase withstands years of travel.

Overall, I think the Samsonite Freeform 24″ Spinner is a great checked bag for anyone. It’s available in a variety of colors and has a 10-year limited warranty which makes it a winner in my book. You can watch my full video review on my YouTube Channel.
