I'm so glad you accurately demonstrated the extra bag hook on the back of the luggage. Some reviewers did not know it was supposed to loop and hook back in. Thanks for the helpful review.

[@solidsnake58]

Hi Min. I just wanted to say THANK YOU for this review. I was going on my first business trip (and first flight in over a decade) and sought out a lot of videos for a carryon bag. It was overwhelming. But I took your advise and bought this case and it was perfect. A step up from my previous carry-on. It’s light, durable, the wheels are a joy, and best of all was the price. I think you showing off your old, beaten up bag, is what made me trust your opinion over other reviews, but you also did a great job just explaining the benefits of the suitcase. Can’t thank you enough.

[@minhsao]

Thank you for your feed back!! That is such an encouragement and I will try to make more video’s similar!! Thanks for watching!! Have a wonderful day

[@meens2940]

Thank you for doing this review in the navy. I am ordering a carry on for myself and would like to purchase for my husband as well. There were not a lot of reviews done by men. The color looks great.

[@raleemay]

Your room looks really cool. Like the ultimate man cave. The navy is a nice color. I got mine in gray. I’m excited to travel with it.

[@minhsao]

Thanks!!! it is definitely a work in progress... it is a very nice luggage... I will be traveling soon and doing more in the field reviews on it.

[@MED9255-j1o]

I sure enjoy your videos, they are content-dense and very informative yet very friendly and very appealing to watch! Thanks!

[@minhsao]

Thank you for the encouragement... it's a hobby making these silly videos... I find it as a way to practice my planning and speaking skills. Thanks again for watching my videos!

[@TheBeautyRebel]

I was sold as soon as you said there is an indicator to warn you if your luggage is overweight.. omgg ! . You have no idea how challenging it is to weigh your bag before you get to the airport... and prayyyy to the travel angels that you are not going to be hit with an overweight fee . Thank you for this review !

[@johnmknox]

3:45 I'm not a fan of the expandable bit. I think it could be a weak point of failure, especially for luggage going in the hold. Baggage handlers tend to throw things around. 4:27 I am wondering how useful the weight indicator is? 50 Lbs (23kg) is much greater than the allowed weight for most cabin baggage unless you're flying with an airline like British Airways or Delta. Even for checked luggage, not all airlines are 23kg some are less, and some are more. I think it would be great if luggage companies could incorporate a manual or digital scale into the luggage to give a better indicator. It is good to see that more and more airports now have weighing machines so you can make sure you are below the limit but it is better to know before you set off as you don't really want to be rearranging your luggage in front of everyone. The best thing about the Beis luggage for me is that they seem to offer a nice range of colours compared to other luggage companies. The colours seem to be better.

[@RK-um9tu]

Yet another mansplainor giving his unasked for opinions.

[@RK-um9tu]

Why do KZbinrs think people want to see them pack video/camera equipment?

[@d.trudeau]

Very good, but heavy for a carry on. The Monos is around a pound less. we could find good carry on at 6.2 pound.

[@RK-um9tu]

Monos cost $57 more and holds up to 12L less. Also, if you can't handle an extra pound, then please start going to the gym...

[@randisney]

You've understated some of the dimensions and capacity, This bag will not be accepted as a carry-on by many international airlines; it's simply too big. It also is significantly heavier than its main competitors, which is important for a carry-on. When you're using the carrying handles (vs rolling with the telescopic handle) it feels unbalanced. It's a high quality bag with many great features, but just not as a carry-on.

[@RK-um9tu]

Monos, Away, Level 8, Tumi, Quince, and all the others big brands also don't fit many international airlines. Also, if the airline lets you carry it on, it is a carry on. No airline is going to stop you if your carry on is an inch too big.

[@minhsao]

I’ve travel internally with this Beis bag all the time and never had an issue with it. I’ve even travelled with it with smaller regional jets and it fine. But with that said if you are concerned.. I would get the smaller bag from level8, or Quince Check out my other videos. Good luck!

[@christinamachado4186]

Can you make a review on check in luggage and give a review on the best one

[@shanesei.2372]

One of the first honest reviews I have seen for Beis ! How is the suitcase holding up? Do you recommended it still and for durability?

[@michelleevans9869]

Hmmm the whole purpose of carryon is not to check in why the expansion then

[@minhsao]

You never know what happens at the end of the trip. When I travel I do carryon for every leg except the last leg when I might be buying stuff to take home… it’s good to have the option to expand

[@wxvyb4by]

Beis or a Travelpro? I'm a Flight Attendant so I need something that will last years getting tossed in overhead bins, getting dropped on accident, and all the Flight Attendant things lol!

[@minhsao]

I would probably go with a Beis... but you can get a TravelPro pretty cheap now day at Ross or Marshalls ... but ultimately I really like how smooth this bag rolls and the handle is amazing. take a look at my other video comparing Monos...which is another good luggage. Good luck and thank you for being a fantastic Flight Attendant and helping us travel and stay safe in the air!!! have a great day!!

[@OrlanCEO]

The mic is so close to all the noise of you hitting the luggage and is kind of annoying but the video is very good

[@minhsao]

sorry... I will do better in my future videos.. thanks for watching and comment!

[@valerie8320]

What would you do if you have to check your carry on? I never pack my electronics in my carry on, so I always have to take a personal bag with my electronics and batteries.

[@minhsao]

If i have to check in my carryon with my tech, what I do is simply remove the battery and put it in my personal bag. Anything that doesn’t have removable batteries (ie ipad, iPhone) always stay with me anyways…. Good luck!!!

[@barryccollyer2429]

Every review from all the reviewers seem to use the same script: tough case, light weight, smooth wheels, smooth zipper, compression interior side, zipper interior side. The world is a smaller place....these reviews are good for US domestic purposes as they fail to mention this one important fact. Does it meet international carry -on requirements? Most of them including this one do not. Depending on the airline much of the time you may sneak it pass the screeners but you are taking a risk (Air France especially) and at one point you will get caught. This is especially bad if you were convinced to purchase the bag based on a review by someone that did not clarify this. Also, if it is an expandable bag, even if it squeezes by the size screener, will not be acceptable on the return thrip. This expansion is also a target for the screeners as they can tell from a distance that the bag has a higher potential of being oversize. Experienced travelers do not use an expansion carry-on; they use a large size personal bag that is still within the size limit of a personal bag. With a legal sized carry on and a legal size personal item you can carry a lot of stuff and only weight is a concern. Many bags have an indicator in the handle when the bag is 50 pounds. This is ridiculous as there is no international airline that allows a 50 pound carry on. Also, 50 pounds in a carry on is very difficult to do with normal travel clothes etc., so this feature is almost worthless. All of you reviewers need to clarify if the bag is suitable for international carry-on since it is a "review" and the audiance may not travel only in the US.

[@RK-um9tu]

There are plenty of videos on international travel luggage. Just watch them Caption Obvious and stop acting like you are the smartest person in the room.

[@minhsao]

Thanks for your comment! But I have travelled over 4 continents and 6 countries, and multiple regional jet flights with this bag without issues. I just finished a Spain and Africa trip with this bag and no issues. But you are right if people have concerns and they should get the 20 in carry on luggage. Thanks again for your feedback!!

[@barryccollyer2429]

[@elo_888]

Hey Min! Thanks for sharing this review with us. Happy Holidays! Would you still recommend Beis over, Monos, Away, Level 8, Travel Pro or other brands we should know about?? Reason I plan spending around this $$$ is because of the "lifetime" warranty. I hope there is no issues with fixes If I purchase the Beis Carry-on, How does it compare for international travel for their limits? Appreciate the help!

[@minhsao]

Yes I do still really like BEIS because of the expansion!!! It is great but on my international travels to be able to pack some extra stuff back on last travel leg. The beis’ handle got to be the smoothest I’ve ever used.. and it continue to be that case so far. however.. I don’t know what it is but the level 8 wheels are super smooth.. don’t get me wrong the beis is also smooth but you can see it for yourself in my level8 videos. So my recommendation as of today is you would not go wrong with Beis or Level8. I lean more to Beis because of the expansion … if I don’t need that then I would consider level 8 …. Good luck and happy holidays!

[@elo_888]

@@minhsao yeah! Thanks for sharing this! I see the Black Friday deals and wanted to make sure the warranty is legit before I invest in a luggage from them

[@TerryZ4883]

I noticed the Beis suitcases do not have foot-pads on the side of the cases. Has this presented any wear or setting in wet area issues?

[@johnwick860]

how does it compare to the MVST trek aluminum? that is $395 and this is $195? I dont mind spending $200 more since the MVST is aluminum

[@minhsao]

I did not like the weight of Aluminum cases and also the lack of zipper expainsion is a big deal for me. But ultimately... it's just a suitcase, if you can afford it and size and capacity is not a big deal then just get the one that make you happy :). Good luck and thanks for commenting!

Hey! I'm trying figure it out if should buy this one, do u have an update about it? It's good size for international carry on? And spirit carry on luggage??

The max weight allowed for carry on is 35lbs, so that makes no sense. And no one ever tested the weight indicator feature. I wonder why? Is the weight indicator really functional?

[@minhsao]

Great point I will demo it in my future video

[@vinney27]

Alot of airlines don’t actually have a weight limit for carry on luggage

[@differ212]

It’s actually 50lbs limit in U.S

it’s more useful in the checked in luggages but i think they just have 50lb as standard even for the carry on size!

[@neurosync_research]

What is the current suit case you have with the broken zipper?

[@minhsao]

It was a samsonite carry on that I got from costco a long time ago

[@rockerdude]

How many days did you pack for, clothing wise?

[@minhsao]

What you saw was for one week … but I recently travelled with that exact setup for 3 weeks but requires washing every 3-4 days, that’s because I sweat a lot when I play tennis. I hope this helps. Thanks and good luck!

[@berttanimoto7319]

I've heard that the protruding ribs on the outside tend to get scratched easier--any evidence of that after you've used it for awhile now?

[@minhsao]

It's still pretty good right now. But check out my other review video on the Level8 cases... although not as big... I really enjoyed using them as well.

[@biblicalgodisonlytruegod]

How much room does the handle consume on the INSIDE?

[@minhsao]

not much... just two ridges . it you are trying to lay something flat on that side, the ridges will get in the way... but you will find this in almost all carry on bags. The only time I don't see this is in the wide handle from Level8. Check out my other video on this.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYfdiZStbZmjgKc ... thanks for your question!

Is there a grab handle at the bottom of the bag?

[@minhsao]

There are two grab handles .. one on the top and one on the side with an overweight indicator. If you rewatch my video you will see what I mean. It would not make sense to have a handle on the bottom since the wheels are there. I hope this answers your questions… and good luck and thanks for watching my video.

[@springriver5651]

Will the carry on pass the size requirement after it’s expanded fully? What happens if it doesn’t?

[@sharayahsmith1900]

It depends on each airline, which all have different requirements. If the worker at the gate determines it to be too big for the cabin, they will have you check it instead of carry on.
