My only complaint about the small away is that I find it to be a bit tough to get rolling on carpet.. This is not due to the wheels, which are great, but the small wheelbase that tends to cause the bag to tip rather than roll. I wonder, when looking at the Rimowa's whether the wheel base (the long way) is longer than the Away. I also wonder whether this issue is solved on the larger carryon, though I have the large checked bag. All of this may be due to the nature of spinner bags (this is my first one).
