OK, I was almost sold on that Heys luggage when I saw that you switched last-minute to it and your items fit better! But now? SO SOLD on that carry on! My fully packed (over-packed??) carry on that I took on my last trip weighed in at 26 lbs. While I was able to lift it above my head to get it into the overhead compartment, not everyone can do that! And hey, I'd love to take a few unnecessary pounds off of that. Love the blush color you have and also love the blue. Oh, and if we're talking about pet peeves of packing videos, YES, I've seen several that only pack clothing items, and they're TINY clothing items - no shoes, toiletries, or even an occasional snorkel & mask. What really makes me end their video immediately is when they're packing toiletries, claiming to be traveling carry-on only, and clearly have no idea what the 3-1-1 rule is all about, and don't know the difference between a solid and a liquid/paste. It's fine not to know, but claiming to be an expert at packing and not know these things? Ugh. I appreciate you, Lauren!!!

[@ItsTheKellys]

I’m so glad you’re sold! This could easily be one of my new favorites, and it’s very similar to the july lite expandable! And I’m glad you agree about the packing videos! They drive me nuts!

[@lyricneeder]

Thanks so much for this video Lauren, you're the only person I've watched who actually tests luggage and puts it through its paces!!... Awesome 👏, I love it👍🏻👍🏻. I was wondering what you would recommend as the lightest, most durable, affordable unzippered luggage...? I tried to do a search but only the same well known brands popped up but I know there are many hidden gems out there.

[@ItsTheKellys]

Zipperless luggage is always heavier, u have never found one under 8 pounds. I’ve only tested Monos, any zip, and level8. I wish I could try July’s. Monos was best

[@lyricneeder]

@@ItsTheKellys thanks so much, I agree unzippered is heavier, I'm concerned with my carryon being gate checked so I'd much prefer an unzippered bag for security reasons.

[@houndandhandbag]

Thank you for this review. I did not get the Airlite, but the Earth Tones 21-inch. I wanted to support a Canadian company, but I really wanted an Air Canada-compliant-sized case that was also affordable. Thank you for giving Heys a glowing review. At the time of writing, it seems they have a very good sale on. I also used your code and got a little extra discount. Thank you so much!

[@sharonkelly7898]

Hi Lauren! Based on your review I just bought the blue bag!

[@ItsTheKellys]

Yay! Im obsessed with the blue color.

[@lovestodive1879]

We have an older set of those bags (so old they only have the two wheels instead of four), the entire set. It was important we have light weight luggage with scuba diving since it's such an equipment heavy sport and the stuff is heavy. We actually took our hand held scale to stores and weighed luggage in the stores and the Heys came out the lightest. We wanted hard side because some scuba equipment is very delicate and we felt it would protect it better. We put all our gear in the largest bag, our clothes and leftover gear in the medium and then our regs, computers, masks, my underwater camera housing and one set of clothes and bathing suits in the carry on. They have worked well.

[@ItsTheKellys]

so glad to hear it!

[@audreyguerrios1217]

Fellow scuba diver here shopping for luggage for gear. This is helpful!

[@lyra2282]

Really appreciate this review! I just go the Level8 textured carry on for an upcoming trip to India and I still stand by that suitcase, it's amazing; but it's a bit over 7lbs, and I'll be taking some regional flights in India where they only allow 7-8kg for carry on bags. I think I'll get the Heys one (plus, it's expandable, so I can justify that purchase :) and the packing cubes (although I personally prefer compression cubes, ideally). This one looks gorgeous and I love the nude color - so glad to see it didn't get wrecked after getting checked in. I might still get a suitcase cover for it just to protect it a bit better in case of it getting checked. The only downside I see - and it's a common one - is that the side with the handles doesn't have a fully zipped cover. The Level8 has one and it's great. I prefer to pack my packing cubes on the side that is smooth because that way I'm not losing any room in between the luggage handles. Having that side fully zipped contains all the random items I prefer to pack on that side. However, I'm willing to over look this issue because I think the bag is still very much worth it. I love the color you picked - I think I'll get the nude, too. My other carry on is light pink, and I want something that will coordinate better with a brown or olive personal item. Thanks for the coupon code, too!

[@ItsTheKellys]

I love my level8 too! I just got the textured in another color :)

[@enjt-fran]

Great video. I love the jumping test as they do not handle our bags with care. It may be a contender. So far i am between this, the travellers choice and the level 8. All excellent choices. Decisions decisions

[@ItsTheKellys]

I haven’t gotten to travel with the travelers choice yet, and don’t have the opportunity to, but I can say the Heys and Level 8 have been wonderful

[@enjt-fran]

I finally got this luggage. It looks so good. I got the blue! Thank you for all your reviews. It really helped me to choose the luggage that was right for me. I can't wait until May, God's willing, to use it

[@julesst.germain9521]

Love your videos. Thanks for making them. Does the heys have the YK zippers?

[@xqueenfrostine]

I wonder if you could take the compression panel from a similar sized bag and use it under the compression straps of this suitcase and get a similar effect to a bag with a built in compression system. The strap on this bag has the ability to be tightened (unlike the suitcases with the useless elastic X straps) so it feels like it should work?

[@ItsTheKellys]

maybe! I didn't mind the x straps because, like you said, they did compress, and that was my packing cube side :)

[@barbiegal7227]

Love all your luggage reviews! Wondering have you ever considered front opening hardside luggage, like the carryon bags by Hanke or Biaggi? Would love to know what you think about these.

[@eva1167]

* v * So glad to see you test this one out! I've had my eyes on this one for a while, but the only thing that worries me was the crushing test for delicate things inside the luggage when checked. With the way it folds when gets stomped on, would fragile things (ie: a wine bottle) packed inside break in that kind of scenario?

[@ItsTheKellys]

I definitely don’t want to test that because I love this bag and I don’t want potential shards of glass in it, but I can tell you I’d be much more confident checking a bottle of wine in this bag vs other ones, wrapped in clothes of course.

[@bbl2019]

Fantastic video! Perhaps it’s the lighting, but can you confirm whether or not the color is matte or more glossier?

[@ItsTheKellys]

Matte :)

[@MonyqueSilva]

Can you please also review their duffel bag and compare it to another popular weekender bag like the beis and monos??

[@ItsTheKellys]

If I get the opportunity to review it, sure, but its not personal item size, so youre aware ;)

[@heatherrichardson5725]

So far, would this be your choice for all international travel when wanting a hardshell carry-on? Love using my Beis domestically, but will be flying to Ireland next year. Not sure of airline yet, but thinking I want a smaller/lighter carry on for any international flights.

[@ItsTheKellys]

It's definitely a top contender. The bag I choose usually depends on the airline, what I have to pack, if I'm solo, if I'm filming, etc. If I need to pack under 7kg, then 100% it will be my choice bag unless I end up with the July light.

[@sandycook8130]

Im on a waitlist for this bag. They are out od all colors. While waiting I got an ad for Biaggi runway-hardside hybrid. Have you reviewed this one? It looked interesting. Thanks for your great reviews.

I fly air Canada jazz express often and those small planes 2x2 seating have small overhead spaces. What do you recommend? I see people fit the away bag but I don’t know if it’s the regular or bigger. I a need a sturdy handle to strap my personal item to and good wheels that can take a slam and cobblestone. The small samsonite did me good in Europe. But was small.

[@kitastrophie7069]

Okay loved this review (which sold me on it) and loved the carry on so I debated leaving this comment but I thought people should know... I bought 2 of these airlites. When I got them they were noticeably wider than my current carry on so I went ahead and measured. These are 15.7 inches in width, not the 14.5 that is stated on the website. I measured like 12 times with 3 different tools, on flat surface, created a cardboard box sizer to get the 90 degree angles perfect and even measured my measuring tools just to be sure 😅 I'm not sure if they changed the manufacturer or because I'm in Canada or what but it was definitely 15.7 which is too big for our airlines. For some reason on my scale it was also 6.4 lbs which maybe is due to scale calibration or something? I told Heys and suggested they remeasure just to see if anything changed but they won't be remeasuring or changing the specs on site. They just assured me that it would fit 'airlines requirements' (but of course, if it doesn't I am the one who has to pay the fees). I really wanted to love this carry on but now I have to pay for shipping the return and gotta find new Christmas gifts 😢 I hope this helps someone if you're being very specific about the max carry on size, if you aren't then this is a great carry on choice still, I didn't find the handles wobbly at all👍🏻

Always love your videos, but, especially when you are testing new luggage. No one does it better!!!! When you say this is international size, do you mean for airlines crossing the ocean or for airlines that operate in Europe, etc.? Did you have a chance to test it in a bin at the airport since you did say it was 14.5"? I have to agree the blue or gray would be the color for me. Thanks for all your work!!!!!

[@ItsTheKellys]

Thank you :) when I say international, there are basically 2 sizes of carry on’s. Under 22 x 14 x 9 (or at least the sum of them adding up to the same) is international size, and the “bigger” or “plus” carry ons that are over 22” are not international sized. Even though this one is 14.5, it is much shorter and less deep, so it will be fine.

Do you have an active discount code for Heys? Upon reading all the comments here, I think this is my best option for my first international flight this year. I am flying to Japan from Canada. Air Canada and Japan Airlines both have strict size and weight restrictions. I wonder if you have any suggestion for a very light duffel bag so I won't go over 10kg total 😂

[@ItsTheKellys]

The discount codes are for a limited time only, so they aren’t valid anymore. I do have two future heys reviews coming out with another discount code, but it’s usually for those items only. I just did a trip where I had a 7kg limit on 9 flights and they never weighed me once. I packed a backpack for it, and ended up donating the backpack halfway thru the trip and getting a carry on 😂

[@KenshoQuest]

Nice! Bring that down a kilo and it would be within the 7 kg limit many Asian airlines have for carry-on luggage.🌺Heidi

That's the plan!

Hi 👋🏽🥰🥰

[@lynnmckenzie4841]

Do you like this bag as much as your July? Do you find carrying a laptop to be a pain in a bag without a front pocket?

[@ItsTheKellys]

I NEVER carry a laptop in a front pocket, Incase it gets gate checked :) and I think this one might be my new favorite

@@ItsTheKellys Thanks, I'm going to buy it. I see there are a few different packing cubes, are all of them the same light ones you have?

I don't feel so alone in my luggage fan girl excitement I see Lauren get excited over new luggage! Many years ago I wasn't even in the market but I was in Toronto on business for a few weeks and when I was ready to travel back to NYC I didn't feel like smushing everything into the bags I had as I even had a lot of paper files. I did not know that Hey's was based in Toronto and at that time had not heard of the brand but I need something big, lightweight, and sturdy enough to carry heavy paper files and miscellaneous tech. I went into a store and purchased the biggest monster check in that I've had in years. I named him "Monster" because I never travel with bags that big and it was purple 😂 I haven't used it as my solitary travel bag but there have been many occasions that I have pre-shipped it when business had me overseas for weeks on end. I've even used it for two house moves. The last time I moved I put my Apple Cinema display and tons of computer accessories and it weighed so much but those wheels held up! Sturdy wheels have always been the deciding point as no one needs a flat when traveling! That Hey's bag carried the weight without any issue! Over the years there have been a couple of dents that I was able to just pop out from the inside. Mine is so big that it sounds like a drum if something hits it but I've never put a teenage football player to the task of jumping on it. Whatever polycarbonate mix they use it works! So, I can't speak for this exact model and the carry-on size but that one piece of luggage definitely impressed me. Great brand!

Can you review Biaggi’s carry on bag and compression cubes?? I see so many ads, but when looking up reviews they’re all sponsored. I’m looking for an honest reviewer such as yourself. Thanks

[@ItsTheKellys]

I’ve been trying for months, they don’t write back, but I keep trying :)

What is That Material? Polycarbonate?

This is what it says on the website, “Made with Duraflex™- a lightweight, and very impact-resistant yet elastic material that can withstand an impact force of 4,000 lbs (1,814 kg) without breaking!”

I am definitely an over packer even for weekend trips like 6 pairs of jeans 4 pairs of leggings or more and omg on the camisoles and t shirts....God forbid its cold need 3 bags lol

[@ItsTheKellys]

Looks like you need to watch my packing tutorials and interventions! 😂🥰

[@Thejazzerc]

It's nice, but it is still too heavy. I flew around Asia in 4 different airlines and they cap their carry ons at 7 kilos.

[@Thejazzerc]

Can you do the Heys Xero Elite 2.0?

[@ItsTheKellys]

My carry on hasn’t ever been weighed in 97 countries and 9 years of travel, so it’s nothing I worry about. I know it happens, but 7kg is impossible for me at my size and I even attempted it in a video recently. I did a backpack instead because I was doing 7 “severely strict airlines that weigh” and none of them weighed. I donated the backpack mid trip and bought a hard case lol

[@ItsTheKellys]

I can ask them about it :)

[@Thejazzerc]

@@ItsTheKellys thank you! I've honestly never had my carry ons weighed. I was really surprised when I went to the Philippines from Toronto and they weighed by carry ons. Eva Air (Taiwanese airline), Phil Air Asia, Cebu Air Pacific and Sunlight air all weighed my carry ons. I was so stressed because my carry on alone was almost 5 kilos without anything in it. It was also super painful because it was a total of 7 kilos for both my personal bag and carry on. After this trip, I am a little more determined to find a super light luggage and came upon the Hey's Xero 2.0 and it seems like it's a super old luggage and I appreciate you reaching out. I've been watching all your videos and you remind of my good friend. I love it!

[@Katemarie913]

Do they make luggage covers for the carryon? Always scared to have my carryon checked. I currently own the beis carry on but hate it bc I can’t ever take it anywhere. Looking at getting this carryon. Love the blue color. Also, thanks for making all of these videos! Always appreciated! 😁

[@ItsTheKellys]

I’m not sure to be honest. But mine has been checked a few times and it’s in wonderful, brand new condition!
