    Really liked the bags however after having them about a month, the color started to become uneven and some leeched out comp[letely. Unfortunately it was after I could return.

    thought this was a nice set, however I used this for the 1st time 2 weeks ago, suitcase was ok, the dowel bag is flimsy, doesn't hold its shape, very disappointed.Now I see she has a whole new set, which looks like it is made better, too bad I didn't know it was end of year stuff, or never would have not ordered it.

  • Forced to check in bag, (Barbara37 FL)
    01/01/2024

    The suitcase is beautiful and rolls smoothly. However, I purchased this specifically to use as a carry on. Even though I did not expand the front part of the suitcase, the airline forced me to check in the bag as it did not fit in the gadget they use to measure carry ons. And, one of the handles of the dowel bag was not finished properly and you can see the tubing inside the handle. Fortunately, it's not that noticeable.

  • Looks Cheap, (mimo5288 GA)

    I am a huge fan of Samantha Brown from her travel shows but totally dissappointed with the bags. I like the functionality of the bags but the materials is too shiny and plastic looking.

  • Disappointed, (CaliTvler CA)

    Was so excited to purchase this set. I got the blush and it's beautiful. Lots of compliments. I'm an avid traveler. However, used the large luggage for the first time this weekend for a short trip and checked it for a flight. When I got to my destination I saw the luggage had several small rips and the zipper was fraying. Emailed the 5 year warranty and was told to file a claim with the airlines. The material is too cheap for a checked bag. Better off with a Samsonite.

    Disappointed after two different flights (American and United) the tote is way too large to fit under seat. I had to smash top down to jam it under seat. Also one of the packing cubes was ripped at the seam.

  • Pretty but heavy, (Cricketgene TX)
    10/14/2019

    I bought this luggage combo its nice looking its not light weight so when you get it packed it gets really heavy especially the Tote bag. It doesnt roll as easy as they say especially when you get it packed or hotel carpet. The first time I fly it get ripped on the corner from.

  • Shabby Chic after a few trips, (thrasherhair NJ)
    09/16/2019

    I purchased this set with a 26" SB bag to travel this summer for work. I flew on an almost weekly basis for 3 months. Most travel was 1st Class Air with priority handling and these suitcases look terrible! The size of the bags were perfect to fit my needs, but they haven't survived normal wear and tear of travel. I'm very disappointed because I really liked their unique look and I actually received many compliments on the bags. Too bad, because I really can not recommend this product.

  • Great looking bag, doesnt wear well!, (alotvgg NY)
    09/14/2019

    i wish I could give this bag five stars, I really do!This bag is absolutely gorgeous! Ive been stopped in the airport the few times Ive used it. Problem is Ive only used it a few times and the wheels look like Ive had it for years! If it looks so bad now, I cant imagine how it will wear in the coming years! This is a bag for right now, not for the long haul! You will look cute in the airport!

  • Empty Spinner, (ShopperDlite CA)
    08/12/2019

    It spinner when it was empty. However, when i used it to travel, it's not a spinner, it was hard to maneuver and tilts a lot. It works better maneuvering by just using 2 wheels pulling. I have to push the luggage if standing upright, not much of a spinner luggage1 It was a disappointing purchased!! Beautiful but does not function as spinner!! Oh, it's a spinner as long as it's empty!!

  • Not carry on size, (acobb2837 LA)
    07/15/2019

    I bought this after I checked the measurements and the airline size requirements for carry-on bags. Did not fit once I got there! I had to pay the checked bag fee and am not happy - at all. The zipper pocket on the outside is the problem- if I could return the bag I would

  • Poor fabrication and construction , (bedstuyq2 DC)
    07/11/2019

    I absolutely loved the color & design. Unfortunately, I took my suitcase & tote on 1 trip & the suitcase appears to have torn on the back. & the secret documents compartment tore on the tote, where the stitching is on both sides. I believe my bag tore while being handled & despite Samantha stating you dont need a bag cover this bag cannot handle general handle when checked.I used it once, checked the bag and once it was torn contacted the company and was told it would not be replaced.

  • luggage set Samantha Brown, (kpcolorado CO)
    07/07/2019

    The luggage is compact, wheels are not as sturdy as other luggage I have used. The tote bag is heavy and the padded computer pocket is too small. It fits my iPad not my Microsoft computer which is small and slender.

    Luggage looks great. Got compliments. But, one use and the croco was coming off the suitcase. Suitcase was wide at the bottom. I was stopped each time boarding. I am disappointed I had to return.
