Hey GadgetFreak, definitely appreciate the response from an experienced poster. I'm a FlyerTalk long time reader, first time poster.
As I mentioned, I'm seeking a rolling carry-on, preferably with a suiter, and preferably expandable. The latter two are not requirements. What is mandatory though is it can't cost as much as a Briggs and Riley.

(Wifey wouldn't let me get away with that nor is it a fight I'd rather have!) So $150 is my range, and not past $200 or so.
In truth, I'm hoping to get a suggestion besides the Costco rollaboard...which despite its value under its lifetime warranty, leaves something to be desired appearance-wise, IMHO. (Worse than the Travelpro, I think!)

So are there any good looking carry-ons at this price segment?
Thanks!
