I have a B&R underseat rolling tote -- I think the baseline rolling cabin bag --that my husband and I use for domestic business trips. It is heavy for its size, but very handy. It replaced a cheap Travelpro that finally died after a decade or so.

We also have a pair of Tom Bihn Aeronauts we used for Europe last summer and for our return this summer. Perfect for traveling about in roller unfriendly environments.

But I wanted to cast a vote for a brand not mentioned here yet. I got a pair of Lojel wave spinners for my kids which have been fantastic for our last two domestic trips. They are 4.3 lbs, which means my 11 year old and 8 year old can still lift them packed. They fit all the new more stringent sizing requirements and had no problem fitting in the oversize bins of the regional jet we encountered. So far they are holding up very well, and my kids really enjoy rolling them.

I love the look of Rimowas but I was adamant about getting bags that fit domestic sizing requirements. Unless Rimiwas resize we may get a pair of Lojels for our domestic travels as well.

Finally we have a set of 15 year old Tumi rollers gathering dust in our basement.
