I had a problem with my celadon voyaguer 20"..just arrived from 20 day European trip & got a problem with my tsa lock.. It got broken, emailed level 8, sent photos & want it replaced( I bought 1(20") & 2(28") in celadon.. They first want to send me just a zipper & I will be the one to replace it????? 🙄🙄 ..crazzzzy, right? Then to give me $20 credit... They said it us easy to replace just watch the video... Since there's nothing more I can do, I said give me $100 but unfortunately I ended up accepting the last offer of $60...will not ever recommend anybody to buy Level 8...poor customer service... Should have gotten the Away( I already got their limited edition aluminum carry-on, except there was no sale yet before my trip.... Good luck with your "new level 8"

Can we have a follow up on how the Level 8 luggage held up.
@wattstraveling11 ай бұрын
Hi there! The luggage is performing better than I thought to be honest. Getting something new, you never know how it will perform we are even using the broken piece and it's still going stong! That being said I haven't even had it a year yet..... maybe I'll do a follow up at the year mark? But so far, it's doing good!

Great video, having used both types of luggage, not the same brand. We prefer backpacking due to sidewalks and streets. In the airport the rollors are great. But lets face it that's a very short time in the scope of a month or two trip. So what to do. Down size, I carry a expandable canvas, military, 32 litter and a small 15 litter day pack. Total weight 30 lbs. My wife carries a 25 litter Deuter keeping her weight down to 20lbs. Word of note her Deuter is specialized for smaller framed women and it's top and front loadable and comes with a water proof cover. One day a week is laundry day. Have a great trip.

Hi there! Thank you for the feedback. I'm honestly torn between the convenience of a backpack, but looking forward to trying these out to see how they compare! Thank you for watching. Sounds like you have a great set up! 👍

Curious….if the luggage handle is so wide…how would I slip my backpack on top?
@wattstraveling9 ай бұрын
Mine fits fine, just have to adjust the straps 👍
@kathieharrop30538 ай бұрын
I feel the issue with the voyageur is that the handle is really wide. Not a lot of backpacks or personal items can slide onto the handle to wheel it around if you have long distances to walk. But I love the look of the voyageur.
@wattstraveling8 ай бұрын
I've actually found that a backpack with adjustable straps fits well but if a bag or backpack has a built-in loop won't fit! Good point! Love the wide handle tho, it's great

Hello. Just wondering if you have used the voyager as a carry on? I saw it is 15” instead of the standard 14” that many airlines allow. Do you have to check it? Thanks and safe travels!

How has it held up on your international trip. Looking to get the 28inch for our next international trip? We have Ogio now and they are indestructible. Wife just wants something with 360 wheels.

Hi there! Glad you asked, because it's held up great actually! They BOTH are great. I'm really liking the Grace carry on because of that front pocket.... saves me from lugging my laptop on my back! The Yellow Voyageur is also great and the wheels..... moves with minimal effort! Love that! ❤️ Again thank you for asking! 👍

Great video, quick question off topic. We are currently looking for travel insurance for our four month trip next year. There's a lot of insurances with a ton of fine print inserted. Did you guys make a video on travel insurance? I think we are going to go with World Nomads $2282 Cad. for 4 months its the Explorer plan the top tier - lower tier is $1840 We were thinking of Safety Wing but it doesn't cover cancellation. Cost would of been $1250USD = 1662 Cad but you can't buy it until your out of the country. And it offers a lot less benefits Which insurance do you guys use and how much did your insurance cost you and for how long, and why did you choose it?

Hi there! We use Safetywing for travel insurance. We looked at world Nomads and at the time Safetywing was cheaper. We pay about 290CAD a month for the both of us. Thank you for watching. We do have a discount code for Safetywing if you change your mind👍we also like the convenience of turning it on and off with a click of a button. 😊

Awesome, i really like the yellow one, feels like a better quality in comparison to the grace set but so far they are both great! Thank for watching! Hopefully the code will work for you to get your discount 😉

@tomatomtom4921 you did watch the part where I showed how broken the piece of luggage was, right? I could have left that part of the story completely out? And no where did I say this is the best luggage, everyone should buy it because it's perfect.... because we hadn't used it at that point. We were just happy to get to try something new! ... but I'd have to say, so far so good.... we are even using the broken piece of luggage just to test its limits! 👍level 8 sent us the luggage in return for an honest review.
