The suitcase that has thousands of 5* reviews on Amazon – and people praise it for being 'unbreakable' | The Sun

A SUITCASE on Amazon has been praised by thousands of travellers, who have raved about it never getting damaged on holiday.

A broken suitcase can ruin any holiday – but holidaymakers have said one suitcase has stood the test of time.

The American Tourister suitcase starts from £120 on Amazon.

The brand, which first launched in 1933, was the first to work with flight attendants from major airlines back in 1965.

Coming in blue, grey and pink, the four-wheeled suitcase expands to fit in more than you might think.

And nearly 3,000 people have given it five stars on Amazon.

One traveller said: "Brought this to Europe and it survived 6 flights with no damage. Just a few scrapes. "

Another added: "Took this on a trip to Guatemala. My husband told me it wouldn’t survive the trip! It came through with flying colors."

A third said: "It’s a great size for one week and it held up fabulously as it was handled by “bag smashers” at 4 airports."

And someone else commented: "While this luggage item is meant to be a carry-on, I checked it during a plane trip and a bus trip and it survived without any damage."

Rachel Bacha, who works as a baggage handler in the US, also praised the American Tourister suitcase as being one of the best.

Rachel recently revealed how she judges passengers based on their luggage.

And in a previous video, Rachel explained why it is important for the bags to be four-wheeled.

She said: "Any time you are purchasing a suitcase, get a bag with four wheels for a couple of different reasons.

"There are people loading your bags on the planes and some of the planes have really long cargo bins, and at some airports, they don't have a machine that takes all of the bags up into the bin to you.

"Some of these airplanes have bins that are 20 feet long. Your bag has to start from here and go all the way back there…and the way it gets there is by being rolled, slid or tossed.
