The rest is junk.
For however long they remain a company and continue to honor their legit lifetime warranty, I think you have to throw a nod in for Away. Not necessarily the best quality, but there are no reports of warranties not being honored. Missing wheels, dents, cracks, the whole nine. I debated going with TravelPro or Briggs, but the former has a virtually nonexistent warranty, and the latter seems really hit or miss. For the price I got em at, the Away bags are the perfect choice for someone looking to spend less but be taken care of when things go wrong. As I alluded to, though, if Away ever disappears, so does the warranty, For now, looks like it's been about 8-9 years of consistency, so I took the plunge.
