If you have opted for the purchase of such a suitcase, you have to pay attention to the price. They are available in several different versions and it is massive price differences hide. Especially with medium and large must be distinguished:
- The actual case (shell)
- One or more parts, pre-cut foam insert
- Single- or multi-layer applications with divisible compartments ("padded dividers")
-. Tack adhesive on the inside of the cover panel for example, small parts ("lid organizer")
The case 1510 shown here contains both the foam lining of the lid and the Padded divider set; the product description confirms this.
To clarify, I would like to briefly outline the US prices: 1510 above about $ 180.- / four-part foam insert up / down about $ 160.- The Lid-organizer in 1519 about $ 25.- and multipart Divider-use (with empty suitcases) 1515 weighs in at around $ 70.- impact.
The amounts priced here 260.- (Stand 23.10.2014) are so much higher, but will be in the lower range of the current German price levels of around 235.- to 300.- over. Case in 1510 without "inner workings" start at about 190.-; all prices plus postage / packaging.
(Recognized FAA) with dimensions of approximately 56 x 35 x 23 cm and an empty weight of 12 pounds (about 5.45 kg) which is not only stable, but also as hand luggage adequately: Now to the case itself. In the embodiment above, the weight is 6.2 kg without payload.
As transport aid there on the left underbody two sturdy rollers that can be used either via the handle on the outside right or by the long-drawable from the subsoil auxiliary handle. And this pull handle is not only a "Stängchen", but a very solid and broad part, alone its underbody mounting more than half of the area takes in claim.
In 1510 it should be noted that the handle and roll glands are inside and it therefore does not result in completely flat surface. However, the adverse effects are minimal.
The luggage lift is nearly 30 kg the water resistance is certified to IP67, operational in temperatures from -40 to 99 degrees Celsius (-40 / 210 F). Available is the 1510 in black (my) and sand ".
Yes to use, I use the 1510 in either "full equipment" as above plus "lid organizer" in the cover or even "naked" for small luggage. With two side handles of the suitcase is always easily and convenient to pull / push. The wheels are very sturdy and manoeuvrable. With the small size of 1510 but with me is rarely so severe that it can not be worn on the normal grip.
