The Ultimate Guide to Choosing a Trolley Suitcase

October 23, 2026

What is a trolley suitcase?

A suitcase with a telescopic handle and wheels, the most common kind. Easy to pull, and available in a range of sizes, from carry-on to large.

Types

  • Carry-on (20"): goes on the plane, for a weekend
  • Medium (24" to 26"): a week abroad, the most popular
  • Large (28" to 30"): a long trip or a family
  • Set (3 sizes): the best value

The handle: the heart of the suitcase

Aluminum with a stable lock. Plastic wears out. Check that it moves smoothly and has 2 or 3 height settings.

Summary

A 3 piece trolley suitcase set is the best investment. It covers every trip, saves money, and the suitcases nest inside each other.
