Sometimes at Costco.com they have Briggs baseline in low $300s. Also if you are not label conscious - Kirkland are very good. I own 3 carryon in family- Briggs, Kirkland and TravelPro- and I can tell u that When traveling - the family member who wants to carry more matching shoes always picks Kirkland

I only ever see two wheel b&r’s .... 4 wheel is a must for me. Also what is so much better on the warranty between b&r and others?

Ah, yeah, if you want to waste space then get a tumi. Might as well at that point. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Tumi is my go to, but if you really want to stand out, the aluminum Rimowas are great. They do get dinged up but like a leather jacket they get better with age
