I have a stealth premier bag (three of them, in rotation). I used to travel with a 26" bag, which was useful for extended time on the road. Presently I use a smaller one. My 26" bag went for about fifteen or so years without incident. the newer bag broke on the first trip, cracked through the base. I ordered a second one, sent the back for service, and for a few bucks more, they upgraded to premier. I bought a third off ebay, sent that in and they rebuilt it, for little cost, to a new premier bag. They hold up well. If you haven't used Luggage works, half the weight of your packed bag is the empty bag.

The handles hold up well, but I make my own velcro tie-down, because if the handle does when its being tossed, it will bend. The premier bag is a bit lighter. The new ones open the opposite direction from the old one, which is annoying. If you weren't used to it the other way, you wouldn't notice.

The wheels are easily user-replaceable. I like them much better than others I've had, and when I replace them, I get good inline skate wheels with good bearings. towed on the two wheels, the bag balances well with a cockpit bag on the "j-hook," and I often take a small knick-knack bag on top.

My second bag got cracked along the base, much like the first, after a foreign airline got hold of it. Rather than send it in, I'm repairing it at home using channel aluminum and aircraft rivets and sealant; it won't be noticeable externally, but will be stronger.
