Commuting or DHing, it caused a lot of grief and angst with FA's and just wasn't worth it and everytime it was on board it caused someone's bag to have to be checked that any other rollerboard wouldn't have. I gave it away to a SW friend. I otherwise liked the bag though.
Maybe the bins are all different now, but before I tried them again I'd want assurance that it fits wheels first in EVERY bin we have.
I’ve seen the same. When my bag is standing next to a strongbag, the SB is def taller. Not a huge strongbags fan, I bought the summit and the little flap to keep it over the handle was tearing within 3 months.
