I’ve had the away bigger carry on for about 5 years now. It was worth every penny! It rolls so smoothly and it actually fits a lot. They also sell a backpack that slides right over the handle so I got that too which is convenient. It’s all so aesthetically pleasing but functional. Reminds me of Apple. And they have amazing customer service.

Not sure on size, but a few of my siblings have the Away carry on. Their bags have gotten a ton of use and they love it.

I have had the bigger away for over 6 years now. Good as new

Quince dupe

Away as well - have had it for 7 years - I think it’s worth it. But I also thought a lot about the consulting ‘persona’ when I got it and at the time all my clients were in tech. Now, when I go onsite, I notice all my colleagues have samsonite or like i don’t even recognize their bags and Away doesn’t seem to have the same value/status.

I’ve also had the Away bigger carryon for 7+ years and continue to be extremely happy with it. I’ve taken it on longer trips too where I’ve completely stuffed it and am pleasantly shocked that the zipper has never had any issues. Between that and the 5 year warranty, I’d be inclined to stick with them vs getting a dupe.

Maybe a hot take but I wouldn't re-buy my away. The primarily reason is just that it's 2 sided. I believe they came out with a new one recently that can also open from the front/top (when on it's side) and I would go with that if I ever got an away again.

Half the hotels I stay at have a place for my luggage, but not if it's butterflied open all the time in order for me to access my things. And a small hotel room is even worse.

Just checked it's called "topside" - And they made it in all the other sizes you can get the normal away in (bigger carry on, etc.)
