  1. I need a new #carryon #luggage, a #trolley and I want your opinions:

    I'm leaning towards 2 wheels (in contrast to 4 or 8 wheels) because:
    - better on rough surface
    - doesn't float around in bus/train (8-wheelers with wheel locks by #Hinomoto exist very rarely)
    - was OK so far for me, so the advantages of more wheels are not worth the downsides(?)

    Furthermore, I'm inclined to take a semi soft case (in contrast to soft or hard cases - latter in Polycarbonite or Polypropylene):
    - much more robust when handled after occasional check-in
    - can be squeezed when necessary
    - supports sufficiently for, e.g., transport of LP records
    - has a certain structure that supports packing with #packingcubes (you need those!)
    - no scratches

    Must haves:
    - airplane compatible size
    - side-handle
    - expandable top handle
    - good and large wheels

    Not necessary:
    - internal straps and compartments

    Is it really worth the price when buying something beyond the 80€ class of #trolleys?
