Nice review. Have seen a lot of vloggers testing these bags, but no one has done such a thorough review. Had presumed it was just "another" hardshell case.

[@CruiseReport]

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you for your review. I had previously bought the Luminous Textured 2 piece set in navy, 20" and 24". Today, because I couldn't resist their 20% birthday sale and have wondered about it, I pulled the plug and bought their 28" Voyageur in navy. Looking at the 26" you showed, I wonder if I will ever need that much space 😂.

Thank you for such a thorough review. I think the older versions of the Voyageur have the shelf/divider in the main side but no compression straps. The newer versions removed the divider, added the compression straps, moved the wet pouch, and slightly different interior material. They are selling both versions now which are delivered at random depending on their inventory. I agree with you that the compression straps would be much more useful if they were attached lower in the case. I enjoyed watching your review.

If your wife switches to a backpack, she might be able to turn the backpack sideways and use the straps as her trolley sleeve for the wider handle.

[@CruiseReport]

That is exactly what I do because I do use a backpack. So the Voyageur carry-on works fine for me. I have been unable to get her to switch to a backpack.

Thanks so much for the detailed report. I had heard Level 8 recommended on another channel, but I’m still doing research for possible purchases and haven’t decided. You gave the necessary information I’ll need in narrowing things down. Thanks! 😊

[@CruiseReport]

If you have any questions, please let me know.

[@wv5959]

That's what I call a thorough review. thanks for sharing! Question: How did you like the wide handle on the 26"? Is it easier to maneuver the luggage? When pulling, sideways pushing, etc.? Or actually a disadvantage? P.S. There is apparently a 30" available now! Still within the 158cm :)

[@user-ro6vl7er1w]

Thank you so much for the review. Very detailed and helpful. Saw an uncomplimentary one of Facebook and have been wondering if to go for monos instead. I wish they'd offer a 50% off. 😂😂😂😂

[@tonycollins7616]

Do you prefer the 2 tone or the solid colors? I haven’t seen the voyager up close. Worried how I would like the yellow. Any opinion appreciated

[@CruiseReport]

It is not so much that I "like" the yellow, but it is so easy to find on an airport carousel among a sea of black bags.

[@rayrayusa]

That looks like the 28" Voyageur. I don't think Level 8 makes a 26" with a handle on the front like that.

[@CruiseReport]

I think you are correct, sir. We were told we were getting the 26" and I never took the time to measure it! My bad.
