Is a two-wheel carry-on harder to use than a spinner?

Yes, in some situations. You tilt it and pull it behind you, which works well on smooth floors but is less nimble in crowds and on carpet than a four-wheel spinner that rolls upright.

Will it fit in most overhead bins?

It is sold as a carry-on, so it is built for overhead bins. Check your airline's exact size limit before flying, since hard shells do not compress if the fit is tight.

What colors does it come in?

Purple, red, olive green, mint, pink, black and butter yellow. Color is the main difference between the options; the shell and wheel layout are the same.

Is the hard shell worth it over a soft bag?

A hard shell protects fragile items and sheds light rain better. A soft bag gives more when a bin is tight and often has outer pockets, which this case does not list.

When is the best time to buy luggage?

Luggage tends to drop around back-to-school and end-of-year sales and during spring travel promotions. Compare the current price against its recent range before buying.
