Got mine from Costco. The top and side handles are nice big leather handles. The bottom handle is almost like a pocket in the nylon for you to grab - and it is hard to see. My B&R Transcend pieces have the same type of bottom handle, (and they are not from Costco), I believe this is how they are all designed.
I don't believe there is a special Costco addition - this is a good way to clear out older models, but even if it was, with both a B&R lifetime warranty, and incredible Costco return policy, I don't think you can find a better value.
