"This Carry-On bag has been sizer bin tested to accommodate overhead bin space on most major US airlines."

And yet, overall dimensions listed: H: 23in W: 14.75in D: 9in

AA / UA / DL all state 22 x 14 x 9 max. Like how could someone say, "We tested this on most of the major US airlines... just not United, Delta, or American"
Given the size limitations of those US domestic airlines, sounds like it wasn't very well designed then
