WE bought 3 Roncato suitcases years ago. They have been abroad, travelled miles, been bashed, and used, and are still in great condition.
Unfortunately airports and airlines have changed their allowed suitcase sizes and our old ones are now too big. Bought 3 of these as they are the correct size to comply with new sizes.
These suitcases do not have zips as closure. They have a silicone seal which goes all the way around the closure edges, which keeps dust and moisture out.
No zip for rough baggage handling to break.
The closure is strong and secure.
There are 4 locks built in. 2 on the top, one on the bottom and a combination lock for your own code on the side. It also has a TSA lock for those travelling to USA or where they require one.
The pulling handle is strong and doesn't wobble. It locks at various heights for your comfort. Folds down flat when not in use.
There are 4 easy glide wheels, which run smoothly.
There are now 2 odd lumps of plastic on the hinge side of these new versions suitcases. They stop the suitcase from falling over when placed on its side! Much better.
Inside the suitcase is not lined. Easy to wash and keep clean. There is now a movable lining in the top half into which you can zip items which you may want to keep clean and separate. I personally miss the small zipped netted pockets which were great for keeping small items in.
Strong elastic straps keep clothing secure in the other half.
The suitcases are 4.8kg, almost 2kg lighter than the old version.
They come with a 10 year guarantee, which shows how good they are.
Expensive, but you get good security, and a robust suitcase.
