Ricardo San Mateo 25" Expandable Spinner Upright

Pros: Good interior and exterior storage. Expandable. Very nice appearance.

Cons: I have two pieces of this luggage. Both developed rear wheel (the wheels nearest you when you pull the bag behind you) wear after only a few uses. I am not a luggage abuser. The problem is that the rear wheel castors don’t “track” well, causing uneven wheel wear, which then rapidly escalates. I bought new castor/wheel units and the exact same thing happened. I suppose it’s possible that I got some of the few lemons out there, but it seems highly unlikely. I ultimately “saved” the bags by locking the rear castors into the correct position, something the average person is not likely to be able to do. This produced some loss of functionality but was better than pitching the bags out. By the way, the Ricardo warranty was of no practical value in regard to the wheel issue; too many hoops to jump through.

Pros: suiter

Cons: After just a couple of trips plastic around the wheel cracked, now unusable. Looks good but not.

Pros: nothing after using it 3 times

Cons: the bottom plastic is broken, wheels are sunk in. Piece of junk.
