My Samsonite Magnum Eco Review

I reviewed the new Samsonite Magnum Eco suitcase and was disappointed with the purchase. Find out why by watching my great video.

That’s how that should be, if the plastic is harder is going to crack under pressure . Is really durable. Samsonite offers 10 years guarantee..

Samsonite made the shell specifically to be flexible and bouncable so when it falls or something is dropped on it the suitcase will not crack and just go back to the original shape.

I'm having S'cure for 9 years, set of 3, heavily used (every year at least 2 vacations + multiple small trips with medium or hand carry) and only this year it got white marks. But true is, I usually carry around 30-32kg in 2 big luggages. Never got anything broken inside. I love the locks - I would never buy any luggage with zipper anymore. And thinking now about new set - S'cure again or Magnum.

I dissagree, i had Samsonite hard shell bags for the past decade! They never broke. My carry on is Magnum eco and I believe it’s fantastic! Yes it’s bending, but NOT breaking…

I actually love it when there is no lining. Less hiding places for bedbugs that want to crawl in.

The Samsonite Magnum Eco was designed to be a hard "flexible" case.
Magnum Eco is NOT designed to be a hard "rigid" case like the old Samsonite Aeris F'Lite and the S'cure etc.

I don’t really get what is wrong with it. All samsonite suitcases are designed to be flexible. This doesn’t mean it will not protect the stuff inside. It is designed to bounce back to its original shape.

Durable, flexible, lightweight...Still going everywhere

[chengalice]

Thank you for sharing this. I like your honest, unbiased opinions

[soulslaveone]

Totally disagree with this guy! He clearly didnt get the point regarding the durability of the thing: -The Magnum is made of PET- plastics. Can U name anything more durable than a PET bottle? Yeah, it flexes and its neither rigid or thick. BUT THATS THE WHOLE POINT! If flexes and takes a punch! AND you will never get your fist thru that thing, even if you say so! I have been using this thing for a long time and it still looks new.

What you saw as negative I saw as something positive. Being flexible and durable should be good

[ЕгорНазаренко-ян]

Thx man! As a lot of people, as I see from comments, I was also close to purchase this one) Thx for you review and good luck!)

[erhantanman]

You missed the whole point man, its flexible but durable on purpose..

[imennnify]

[JanieP]

Thank you for the honest review. I used it to persuade my husband not to buy this Spinner.

[shahrizandaud]

[annapl]
