I've tried 6 different luggage brands, and this one is by far the best

• Luggage that's bulky, heavy, or difficult to manage can add to stress when traveling.
• Your luggage should be large enough to fit your belongings, have compartments for organization, be durable, and feel light enough to lift easily.
• I take dozens of trips each year, and have tried several different luggage brands over the years.
• For me, the EBags Fortis 30" Hardside Spinner comes out on top in terms of price, durability, looks, and weight.

I take dozens of trips every year, so I need a reliable and durable piece of luggage.

Since many of my trips last close to two weeks, I like to take checked luggage with me so I can prepare for different climates, pack video and camera equipment, and bring back souvenirs on the return leg.

Here are the six luggage brands I have used over the years, and the one piece of luggage that checked all of my boxes: size, comfort, durability, safety, and value.
