- Is the Stratum 3.0 Large carry-on size?
- No. At 28 inches it is a checked bag, not a carry-on. It suits long trips where you check luggage.
- Does it have a TSA lock?
- Not on every version. Check the specific listing, since some Stratum 3.0 sizes include a built-in TSA combination lock and others do not.
- How does it compare with the Samsonite Winfield 2?
- The Winfield 2 uses polycarbonate and feels more rigid, while the Stratum 3.0 uses ABS and flexes more. The Stratum is lighter and simpler; the Winfield is sturdier.
- Is the shell expandable?
- Yes, the main compartment has an expansion zipper that adds packing depth. It is useful for souvenirs but makes the bag bulkier.
- What is the warranty?
- American Tourister covers its hardside luggage with a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. It does not cover airline damage.
- Will it fit in most overhead bins?
- No. Its size is meant for checked baggage, so plan to check it at the counter.
- Where is the American Tourister Stratum 3.0 Large 28 Hardside Spinner cheapest?
- At Nordstrom, for $149.99, as of our latest check.
