It has a telescopic handle for suitcase situations, although one review states that there is a gap where the handle retracts from.

The one down side that I could mention, is that it sometimes tips to one side when dragging off a curb – but you just have to be a little careful. It’s never caused me a big problem.Founded in 1997, we’re the UK's largest dedicated outdoor clothing and equipment retailer and have been offering our customers unbeatable VALUE for money and outstanding quality for 25 years.

So, whether you're planning on travelling the world or exploring closer to home, we have what you need for your next ADVENTURE. The Yorepek is similar to the Ligsan aesthetically and structurally. It measures in at 49 x 34 x 24.1and weighs 2.26 kg. For long-term travel the volume might be a little low, but if you can travel light and only want carry-on luggage the 45L option looks like a winner. I can’t find a faulted review. The Kathmandu Hybrid trolley comes in two size variants, 50L and 70L, and there isn’t too much of a difference in price between the two. There is also a grab handle on the top of the bag for lifting while it is upright and one on the side for retrieving from airport conveyor belts or overheard/under bed storage. There is no grab handle at the wheels.

Why Choose a Wheeled Backpack?

I was doing a West to East Coast USA group camping trip and by the time we had reached New York I had lost straps, the retractable handle was hanging on for dear life and one of the wheels was a bit wobbly. I’m going to give you my own review of this one, since I have one and I’ve been using it for a few years. I love it. After six years it is still going strong and there are no problems with the bag, zips or wheels. And I travel a lot!

One of the largest bags on this list, this one is 28 (h) x 14 (w) x 14 (d) inches. It holds a volume of 80L. Weight A nifty addition to the Yorepek is the wheel cover attachment, this is great for covering up dirty wheels while in bag mode.The main compartment fits a 15.6 inch laptop but the specifications do not state how many litres it can hold. The smallest size is the most expensive of the mid-price options but still shouldn’t break the bank. Size Aesthetics are very important to me. If I am investing in an expensive piece of kit I want it to look good as well as feel nice and fit my clothes and electronics.

The Cabin Max Greenwich 44L measures in at 40 x 20 x 55 cm and weighs 1.7kg, making it the lightest in this list. The main material is 600D PU polyester, which is said to be showerproof.
