I saw these on their site as well (haven't gone to the store yet) and was wondering if they are the same or similar enough to the one the OP purchased. They are not part of the same Dash collection, this set is part of the Newcastle collection.

JCinPA, can you tell if these are similar enough to the Dash collection piece you bought?

I really liked your review and have a very similar outlook (and I think a similar professional background!). I'm all about function, I own several B&R and other luggage pieces that cost several hundred each and I'm sick of most of them. They are just overkill now that I don't travel for business as much and are now collecting dust. I travel monthly for leisure and try to keep things as light and simple as possible, I couldn't give a crap about the brand or look. I don't own any hardside spinners and for that low price it might be worth just having some as backup for trips where I need more space.
