Why we rate it
First things first, it's very stylish as far as cabin suitcases go. Designed with a hardshell exterior for maximum safeguarding of your belongings, it features horizontal line details to make it easily identifiable when you're waiting by the luggage carousel at the airport, itching to get to your destination.
The case itself comes with a secure combination lock located on the side, along with elastic compression straps to keep your essentials fixed and in place. There's also a mesh, zipped divider for storing smaller items like passports, phones, boarding passes and headphones.
There's both a top and side handle — thoughtfully designed to make it easier to get the case out from overhead lockers, and a generous 35-litre capacity for housing everything you need for your holiday.
Previously available in five colourways before the yellow sold out, you can shop the cabin case in four colours including: black, grey, navy and red (the red is a great option if you're someone that's looking for a recognisable case that stands out).
There's also the matter of affordability. This case is a lot cheaper than other hardshell cases in the market, with similar designs from the likes of Antler retailing for as much as £195.

What the reviews say
Over 350 shoppers have rated this cabin case an impressive five out of five stars, hailing it the "perfect travel companion".
The only grumble a handful of customers have pointed out is that it's smaller than they expected. With that in mind, make sure to triple-check your measurements against the required dimensions for the airline you're flying with.
"Great lightweight but robust cabin case. Dimensions comply with all carriers we have used. Packed loads in! Wheels really smoothly both when pulling behind or wheeled at your side."
"Just right for couple of nights away. Handy combination lock and easy to wheel."
"An excellent sized suitcase for a few days away. Perfect as carry-on luggage for overhead storage. Budget airlines who tend to be fussy with suitcase sizes had no problem with it. Strong and study and easy to move around on its wheels. A great price too. Plenty of room when packing for a few days away. I bought the navy colour, and it looks really stylish. Handles on the top and side make it easy to carry if necessary."
"Great size and durable. Can't wait to use for our next holiday! Great colour and lock on side. Just enough room for packing light. Could carry on aircraft. Would buy again."
"Great size suitcase for a few days away. Easy to move around and great value product."
