They look great, but do Rimowa suitcases hold up to years of travel?

I have a Costco suitcase that I bought for like $80. Been using it for 10 years+ plus now including on multiple international trips a year.

Yes, i have seen many beat-up Rimowas , but if you do not need the shiny aluminum shell, you regular costco samsonite can hold up pretty good as well.

My tumi is going on 14 years and has proven to be bulletproof. It’s not a looker anymore but it’s reliable. I’ve replaced one of the wheels recently with an aftermarket but other than that it’s been smooth sailing.

Had mine for 5+ years (carry-on and checked hybrid model), holds up very well. I don’t use the checked much but that did have a handle broken last year. Rimowa fixed it for $50 (out of warranty). Wheels are far superior to other suitcases.

Look at used market

Travelpro IMO are well priced and better quality than samsonite. Rimowa only if you want to impress that cute associate.

Love my TUMI

Got braids. You'd think I literally got a face transplant from how shook my coworkers are. I would say over 10 people have stopped me to ask about them or comment on them and I've been at work for maybe 2 1/2 hours. It's all been positive, but am I wrong for still finding it annoying? They don't lose their minds when Sarah gets bangs or whatever so I wish they could keep that same energy.
