REVIEW – We didn’t travel much in 2020 due to COVID; instead, we chose to be cautious and hang out at home a lot. Hopefully things will look better in 2021, especially if these vaccines work well. If they do, then we’ll definitely take a vacation or two. Maybe we’ll head down to Myrtle Beach, SC, or maybe we’ll go up to Pigeon Forge, TN. Wherever we go, we’ll need some luggage, and so today I’m reviewing the Elegance carry-on luggage from LEVEL8. What is it? With all this in mind, what Level 8 luggage should you opt for? Continue reading for my personal recommendations. Level8 is a New York-based luggage company that focuses on simple ergonomic designs, durable materials, and sleek styles.

This may seem a strange feature to include. However, if you’re going to invest money into a good quality luggage set, the chances are that you’ll also want it to look nice! As mentioned, the Level8 Luggage is made of durable yet lightweight polycarbonate hard shell. Not only does the material have a glossy finish, but the strength to withstand frequent use.Other than the body, its telescopic handle is made of aluminum alloy. No need to worry about dents or damage as you roll your luggage around, holding the handle. A crucial yet often looked-over feature people forget about with luggage is the wheels. After all, you want it to move as freely and smoothly as possible to avoid looking like you’re dragging your luggage!

Lifetime warranty that covers any functional damage to the shell, wheels, handles, zippers, or anything else that impairs use of the luggage.

The plus side of this is that it gives you easy access to both sides, rather than having to dig to the bottom of one deep side to find things, and allows for better organizing. Having luggage with multi-directional wheels for us is an absolute must. It makes pulling or pushing your luggage along substantially easier.

The exterior hard-shell is made from “aerospace-grade Germany Makrolon® Polycarbonate”. Admittedly, I don’t know what exactly this means. However, what I can tell you is that it is tough and I’m confident that it will keep our stuff safe!

TSA does not have a set carry-on size and the dimensions of carry-on baggage allowed in the cabin of the aircraft vary by airline. However, generally, most airlines have a maximum carry-on size policy of 22″x14″x9″, including wheels and handles. I don’t want to keep rambling about the beauty of the Level8 Luggage without mentioning a few dislikes. While I approve of this luggage, there’s no such thing as a perfect product, unfortunately. There are two carry handles, one on top and one on the side, that are fairly narrow and made of a rubberish material. They lay flat against the Elegance until they are grabbed, at which point they extend out about an inch and a half. While this design will save some space in an overhead bin, I don’t think these handles will be very comfortable if I ever have to carry this luggage over long distances when it’s loaded down. That’s it for my Level8 Textured Carry On 20” review! Overall, I think this is definitely a great carry on suitcase choice and is perfect for both domestic and international travel. A luggage handle is an underrated feature that people must focus on, too. The Level 8 Luggage has an aluminum alloy handle for sturdiness, which can smoothly extend to various heights for better comfort no matter your size. Moreover, the handle material is lightweight, so it won’t add weight to the luggage.

Inside the Elegance, there are two compartments, the left and the right sides. Both sides have their own zippered mesh divider, which will keep everything in place when the suitcase is opened. I can see that this luggage is built to last for the long run and still maintain a modern aesthetic, looking stylish even in the years to come. You’ll also notice bumper feet on the side of the luggage, protecting the entire bag from any scuffs or scratches. It will prevent the luggage from directly touching the surface, so even after numerous trips, the luggage will still look its best. 360-Degree Spinner WheelsFor starters, the luggage is moderately-priced for something that looks luxurious and high-end. But this is considered a premium brand, so expect to shell out more than what you’d expect of luggage.
