I didn't mean to imply that B&R needs to repaired often. But that nylon bags in my opinion need to be repaired more often than a polycarbonate bag. And the B&R fanatics always talk about the warranty first and foremost. Personally, I'd rather have a bag made out of tougher materials, than a better warranty.

Also my grammar was poor, regarding the weight. i was saying that B&R is too heavy for a checked bag. I like the brand better as a carry-on choice.
