A chronic overpacker switched to an American Tourister NXT Checkered Hardside 20-inch carry-on purchased at Target for $85. The suitcase proved lightweight yet deceptively roomy, easy to lift into overhead bins and smooth to roll through airport terminals. The expandable interior accommodated a week's worth of clothes, shoes, toiletries, and essentials. Inner compartments helped organize small items. Multi-directional spinner wheels handled sustained walking comfortably. Hundreds of Target shoppers awarded five-star ratings, with reviewers praising the bag's capacity and maneuverability. The combination of affordability, style options, and practical features outperformed pricier luggage in everyday travel use.
I'm what you would call a chronic overpacker. In fact, up until about two months ago, you might have thought I didn't know the meaning (or existence) of carry-on luggage. My Away suitcase was checked ahead of every flight, even if said trip was a quick 24-hour stint. Trust me, I found a way to fill it. My over-packing problem, though, is the very reason I found myself in Target's travel section on the hunt for a relatively inexpensive carry-on.
I decided on the American Tourister NXT Checkered Hardside Carry-on, with the hard part being settling on one of the eight stunning color options and the easiest being that it cost just $85. The lightweight 20-inch spinner suitcase from American Tourist's Checkered Collection is deceivingly roomy.
When I went to pack for my next trip, I decided to leave my usual bulky luggage at home and finally got to experience the bliss of traveling without a before- and after-flight pitstop for checked bags. The expandable suitcase fit everything I needed, including an entire week's worth of clothes, shoes, toiletries, and other essentials. The inner compartments make it easy to store small, important items, while the multi-directional spinner wheels were able to keep up with my New Yorker-level walking skills.
