I'd recommend picking 3-5 important metrics, that matter to you (price, capacity, materials, functions, etc.), when considering what your next luggage purchase may be. Narrowing down the evaluation criteria can give you more prescriptive feedback to help you with your purchase decision.
From my perspective, they are completely different products, that serve different needs of their intended users.
Sorry if I'm bringing up an old thread, but these two suitcases are exactly the two I'm deciding between but in the international carry-on size. I value weight, capacity, and overall quality/craftsmanship which is leading me to lean towards the Rimowa essential lite cabin. Can you expand on how these two suitcases are completely different products? I'd like to know what different needs they both serve. Thanks!!
