My husband says that because it is so lightweight, his briefcase is heavier and when he puts that on top it is top-heavy. Otherwise, he loves the ease of pushing it down the aisle in the airplane.
from Jacksonville, FL on 8/23/2008
The ultimate short-hop carry-on! With a bit of packing talent, I managed to fit enough for 6 days, a suit, extra shoes, large camera and all the other travel necessities in just this one case! I got it so that I could manage to carry-on no matter what dinky aircraft I was crammed into, and it does fit (albeit just barely) into the overhead bin of the Embraer regional jets. It gets lots of complements, surely the best style you can get for the money. The only downside is that there are no external pockets, not to easy to stash things on the go. Despite a flimsy feel to the hinge it has handled overseas travel like a champ, the light weight is fantastic for those on the go. My wife will be getting one too, and I may spring for the larger one for longer trips as well. Despite the look that it is prone to scratches, the last 3 trips have resulted in very few, most were buffed out. Overall a very impressive little case.

Very flexible

I bought my Dash at the airport on my way home. My huge rolling suitcase was killing me and never went the way I was going. I had more to take home than I went with and was carrying it with me. Saw the Dash, loved the colors, lightweight, ability to pack more than you think. Now, I'm buying another one for my husband.

I am going to Norway in September for the first time and am so glad that I have my new suitcase to carry on the plane and to take day trips on the train.
from New York on 7/21/2008
this is great buy. it's large enough to hold the essentials yet still compact. The color choices give you the option to be classic, trendy or completely out there!
from Montclair, VA on 7/19/2008
This is the easiest carry on bag I've ever owned. It's so easy to roll and cute to boot!
from New York City on 7/18/2008
used for weekend get-a-way, light weight and colorful but after only one use, it is all scratched.
from Kingsport, TN on 7/18/2008
I purchased this item, in yellow, specifically for an airplane carry-on. I love the bright yellow color that is easy to locate. The wheel manuverablity is amazing. I was initially disappointed when asked to to gate-check the item, because I desparately wanted access to the contents during the flight. When granted permission to keep the carry-on, I found that it fit easily underneath the seat in front of me,and easily made the carry-on requirements. I carry too many book and papers on flights, and next time I will work on improving the internal organization of the suitcase. It seems designed (internally) for lighter weight material that I usually carry.
from Cross River, NY on 7/5/2008
Great light-weight carry-on luggage for companion or child. Not best choice if you are travelling alone and it's your only carry-on because it just cannot fit everything. Other carry-on bags are larger, but are not as stylish or easy to roll.

Size controls the amount you can pack. This is a good feature as you probably travel with more than you will use on a trip. The wheels work practically anywhere. Despite the hard treatment in checked luggage on a plane to and from London from Baltimore, the Dash looks new. This is the best suitcase I have ever owned.

from Sarasota, FL on 6/28/2008
I saw this product at Riverwalk in New Orleans. I bought a green one and my friend bought a yellow one! I carried it home empty, and then used it on a 4 day trip last week!
It is so easy to use! I have had airline hostesses and fellow passengers coming up to me to ask me where I got it!
I was walking through the airport and a lady flagged me down to ask me about it.
It is the easiest and lightest suitcase I have ever owned!!
It got some black smudge marks from riding to the hotel. I wiped them off and it is good as new!
I also applied a coat of car wax to keep the shine and reduce the marks.
I recommend this to everyone!
from Tullahoma, TN on 6/27/2008
This bag is ideal for carryon as well as short trips in the car.
from Louisville, KY on 6/27/2008
It is an awesome bag..I can use it for travel or day to day carrying my compueter
I purchased two of these (one for our daughter and niece) for one of our summer vacations. They were asked numerous times where they purchased them at. They simply adore them!
from Las Vegas, NV on 6/22/2008
Good for the money.

Although design is nice, odor is too strong to recommend it
from Reo, Nevada on 6/6/2008
The baggage seems very comfortable to use on a short trip; easy to handle, lightweight and sturdy.
I plan to use it a lot and hope it lasts a long time!

from San Rafael, CA on 5/23/2008
I love this suitcase! This is the second one I have bought. With the new fees on checked bags on planes and the strict weight standards on carry on bags on international flights, this suitcase is about as good as it gets.

This is absolutely a god-send! My parents got this for me for my birthday. I work for a company that has me traveling quite a bit. With the hike in Airline prices, and now with American Airlines charging for bags checked, this is the perfect luggage to use for those 3-4 day trips. The key is rolling everything up tight and taking advantage of all space (flashback to my Marine Corps days)

Wheeling down the aisle of economy class just got a whole lot easier with these great four wheels.
from Westlake, Louisiana on 5/16/2008
Should offer better color choices.
Lusted after my daughter's luggage when she first bought hers until I got one of my very own.
from New York, NY on 5/9/2008
With so many bright colors to choose from - you will never lose your carry on at the airport. :O)
I thought I would be able to carry just a few things in a nylon bag on my trip to my Florida condo, where I keep a second set of clothing for when I visit. The so-called lightweight bag was too heavy. I passed by Brookstone and saw this bag and vowed I would look at it again when I returned to my home aiport. I looked at it, bought it in bright yellow, transferred my stuff to it, and continued on in a much greater degree of comfort. My husband was hesitant about the purchase of yet another carry on bag, but when he saw this he was a convert. I think he wants one, too. His birthday is in August. I will have to choose a more subdued color. Mine is school bus yellow. I like the dark red for him!
from Chevy Chase MD on 4/4/2008
Short trips, airplanes, trains. Couple of overnights. Very maneuverable. No complaints

I had made an overnight trip to Baltimore using a shoulder bag. Although I pack very lightly, I was tired of the constant pull on my shoulder. I saw this suitcase at BWI, bought it on the spot, and immediately re-packed my shoulder bag and its contents into this suitcase. I agree that an outside pocket might be nice, but I think that in the end that would interfere with the incredibly sleek and streamlined nature of this suitcase. It is very maneurable, with the rotating wheels. I love this suitcase!
from Florida on 3/7/2008
I use it for weekend getaways and short trips. It is so easy to manoeuvre around airports and on the plane.
from Central Mass on 3/7/2008
The Dash is perfect for 1 or 2 night business trips. Its light and small, making it easy to get through the airport, on/off shuttle buses, and most importantly, easy to lift and fit into overhead bins on planes.
This bag is small so its not for long trips or for the folks who like to take along lots of stuff.
I am very happy with my purchase.

from Fayetteville, NC on 3/2/2008
Found this bag at the [...] in the center of the Charlotte Airport store when I was struggling to make it from one side of the terminal to the other.Have used it extensively for two months. Buying a second for my wife, so I can have mine back since she discovered it! Net cover on one side holds all the loose things in check, so they don't dump out when you open it. Wouldn't check it as it does scratch easily, but it was made for carry on, so no big deal. Four "spinner" wheels make it easy to move closed. Holds more than I expected. Stows great in most overhead compartments, but may be a real tight fit in some small commuter jets.

from Long Beach, NY on 2/29/2008
I love this suitcase. It rolls like it's on ice and when traveling with a backpack I can strap it on top and not have to carry anything. It fits perfectly in the overhead. When on an escalator it rolls right onto the step and fits perfectly. I highly recommend it. If you know how to pack you can easily pack for 5 days in this bag with just a small backpack for cameras and extra shoes.
The only down side is there is no external pocket to place your bag of liquids for easy access at security.
from san diego, ca on 2/20/2008
This weekend I took a trip to San Francisco in which I put my true love through the ringer. I dragged him for miles through the city, through Muni and Bart and Bus and all kinds of public transport; over broken sidewalks and scraggly streets and brick-paved walkways; through the pouring rain without an umbrella. I filled him up until he was over stuffed and near exploding, and never once did he complain or falter or grow weary; never once did he utter a word of complaint, nor show any indication that he was displeased.He packs more than enough for a 4 day trip (if one is a savvy packer like me), with a wee bit of room to spare for souvenirs to bring home. This weekend, Dash was thwacked, dropped, bumped, scuffed, and still he held steadfast, never once losing his balance or missing his cue. He is also the most adorable, darling, attractive little suitcase I've found for his [$] pricetag (most any handsome luggage his size comes with a designer pricetag of $250 or more). This weekend was a test of endurance, and I recommend him 100% to anyone looking for a small carry-on.And though I've not personally tested this, he may even fit under the seat on most airlines, and would certainly fit under Southwest's middle seat (which measures 19.5" in width, by nearly as many deep).

I'm on a different plane every week, and this bag goes everywhere with me. The 360-degree wheels mean you can push it upright alongside you--your arm & shoulder bear no weight. It maneuvers easily into a bathroom stall (important for female travelers!) and does double duty holding the door closed if it's broken. It fits under most airline seats, so no worries about room in the overhead compartments, plus I can use it as a foot rest on long flights (I'm a short person). I recently had a flight attendant ask me where she could get one!
from Chinle' Arizona on 2/1/2008
Best carry-on bag I have yet seen. Rolls great in long hikes through terminals. Handle is plenty long, so you don't have to stoop to pull it.
Worth every cent of the price!
from Tampa, FL on 1/25/2008
Love the color palette and the great turning radius...would like it to be somewhat harder on the outside to withstand airline handling--I'll probably just use it as a carry-on.
from Roseville, MN on 1/16/2008
Love the suitcase. Just used it for the first time. The airport scuffed it up, but they wiped right out. On the small size, but perfect for a weekend getaway.
from San Francisco, Ca on 1/14/2008
ALL ABOVE. GOOD FOR MY RUNNING AROUND......
from Sarasota, FL on 1/12/2008
Bought for my 11 and 14 year old girls. Perfect size for carry on and short trips. They loved the wheels!
from Maryland on 1/12/2008
I just bought this for my mom. I have one in green and it is wonderful. I use it for everything.
from ardmore,pa. on 1/12/2008
I bought 3 DASH CARRY ONS for Christmas gifts.
Everyone seemed very pleased with them. In fact I am considering buying one for myself.

from Columbus, Ohio on 1/12/2008
It is smaller than my older, cloth carry-on and has no outside pockets in which to place itineraries, magazines, boarding passes, maps, etc.
from Los Alamos, NM on 1/11/2008
Nice carry on bag, really light. Movement is really nice, can spin it aruond easily.
from Detroit, MI on 1/11/2008
I can't believe how much stuff I can fit in this roller bag! It's perfect for commuter flights and casual weekends. Because of the hard exterior, I can pack it full and know that everything will be well protected. It fits "wheels-in" in an overhead bin on flights and because of the rotating wheels I can run through airports for connecting flights with no delay. Love the bag! I get compliments on it all the time. Thanks Brookstone.
from Denver, Colorado on 1/7/2008
My daughter loves it!
from Philadelphia, PA on 1/6/2008
As luck would have it, I saw this carry-on while on layover at an airport. I was home for less than 12 hours before I got online and ordered it. I am happy to say that it is perfect for weekender trips. It's not meant for people who travel by way of emptying half of their closets! Love the netted section that is convenient for either souvenirs or separated laundry items.
from NYC on 1/6/2008
One can change direction, turn around and it's no problem for the dash
from Hugo, MN on 1/4/2008
The pink color is so pretty!! The case rolls so nice. Bought a second case for my Mom. Going to Vegas next week, can hardly wait to try it out!!
from Saint Simons Island, Ga. on 1/4/2008
PURCHASED AS XMAS GIFT FOR MY DAUGHTER.WHO TRAVELS ALMOST EVERY WEEKEND. GOOD SIZE, WEIGHT AND VERY STYLISH
from Chicago IL on 1/4/2008
I bought one of these cases for myself after seeing it displayed at various airports.I have used mine (the red one)on two trips and I'm pleased with the amount of stuff it holds--perfect for two nights out. Because I liked it so much, I bought one for each of my two nieces--one who likes to travel and the other whose next trip will be to the hospital to have her first child.The colors are wonderful, the capacity is perfect, and the weight is perfect for lifting overhead without help.
from Erie, PA on 1/4/2008
It is extremely lightweight and is very easy to move around
This is the best product I've ever spent money on. It's tough while still light-weight, nimble and sturdy. Race through airports at the speed of light, through wide open speces and small tight areas in the bar. Durable ( i threw it down the escalator ) and it didnt break, scratch or falter. I rolled it passed slot machines swiftly with ease, over carpet, tile, and over curbs. It lands with the balance of tony hawk on a ramp. And dances like fred astair on marble tile. Swing this one around baby. Buy it, you wont be sorry!
allows you to carry enough items without hassle. Goes around smoothly and ergonomically designed causing least back ache when you travel specially when placing item over head in the airplane. A plus for a person on the go, stands out to the punishment of teenage use as well.

from Ottawa, Ontrio, Canada on 11/30/2007
This is the smoothest, most-graceful-to-haul-through-the-airports, carry-on ever invented! No more dragging a pull-bag behind me, this one's slick, fast, rollerblade-like wheels rolls along beside me, and pirouettes neatly on escalators, tight airplane aisles, and scoots under airplane seats. If only it had a little trap door to store my ticket and pull out my laptop for security checks without having to unzip the whole thing. I can pack for several days if I pack thiner knints and fabrics, roll up everything small enough, and still get my laptop in!
I loved using this as a make-up bag with hair dryers, etc. in one case.
from Rhode Island on 11/13/2007
This rolls right along with a handicap scooter without any arm strain. Fits like a dream in overhead compartment or under the seat on planes and trains. Carried my cpap machine and clothing for a 2 day trip to NYC and 5 days to Las Vegas.
Now buying two more for the grandchildren!

from Napa Valley, CA on 10/14/2007
i think this is great for trips and for many different things. one thing is it need a little more space in there.
Perfect for one/two night stay. Unlike set pieces that come with too many impractical sizes, this one is does not occupy the whole closet when not in use.
