Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I just finished a one-month trip using this bag, and it worked well. Pros: Well constructed and nice looking. Easy to pick out on the carousel Rolls easily. Cheaper than average for a carry-on bag. Carry handle on the top end (great for stairs and other places where it cannot be rolled). Seven pockets in addition to main compartment (also a con). Fairly light weight for capacity. Cons: If full, this bag exceeds most airline guidelines for carry-on. I had to convince a gate person that it could be compressed down to fit into an overhead, as the bag was not full (Why do some people get to carry on enough for a small army?). Will not stand on end. I would prefer a couple of large pockets instead of seven small ones. Two large and five small would have been better.
