They cost too much, require constant attention with screws falling out, and it's complete overkill. The weight wasn't noticeable to me either until I changed brands. Totally unnecessary to spend that kind of money on a bag for this job IMO.

By the way I did try the Kirkland bag (Costco) about 10 years ago. The wheels broke on it within two months. That's why I said early just get something with good wheels.
