Update on Zuca Pro

Having used my new Zuca Pro now for about 6 roundtrips, it is time to give an update on my experiences. Overall I am very pleased with this luggage, it has met and exceeded my expectations. I have been able to pack everything that I need, even for a recent trip when I actually spent 5 nights away from home. The packing cubes work really well, all I have to do is remember to unroll my shirts and slacks when I arrive at my destination. The built-in 3-1-1 bag is really good, and I have often used the extra pockets on the sides for things varying fom my keys (small pockets) to magazines (large pocket). The other day I discovered something very useful, this case fits into the overhead bins on the CRJ aircraft!
Of course there are always some less positive issues, one small quirk is that the case is sometimes a little unstable when being pulled, due to its narrow wheelbase. Having said that, the big polymer wheels run very smoothly and the case is very easy wheel through the terminal and down the aircraft aisle.

All in all, a bag to be recommended, I expect it to last long beacuse of the strong aluminum frame.
