We tried and tested the BÉIS large check-in roller case to see how it held up on a number of transatlantic flights.  Their bags are designed to make every day easier, designed by real people for life’s realest moments.

History

“Baggage is better with BÉIS”.  A luggage and travel accessories company founded by actress Shay Mitchell. The company was established with the goal of providing stylish, functional, and affordable travel gear. Shay Mitchell was inspired to create BÉIS after realizing the need for durable and fashionable luggage that could withstand the rigors of travel while still looking chic.

BÉIS provides a variety of products, including suitcases, weekender bags, and travel accessories, all crafted to enhance the travel experience. The brand has become well-known for its innovative features, such as weight indicators, TSA-friendly locks, and expandable compartments and very user-friendly.

Moveability

Thanks to the smooth-rolling 360° wheels and cushioned silicone handle, manoeuvring the BÉIS suitcase is a breeze, even when it’s fully packed. Whether you’re gliding across wooden floors, tiled surfaces, or carpeted areas, the suitcase remains easy to steer and control. This makes navigating through airports, hotels, and various travel environments effortless and stress-free.

Featuring comfortable cushioned handles and a retractable hand strap, making it easy to carry. While it is a bit on the heavier side, it comes with a built-in weight indicator that alerts you when the weight exceeds 50 pounds, making it ideal for international travel on airlines with strict weight limits. Additionally, the case is expandable by around 2 inches, providing extra space when needed.

BÉIS offers a full range of suitcases in various sizes, along with compression packing cubes. The set of six packing cubes, available in matching colours, designed to keep you organized and efficient on your travels. These packing cubes not only coordinate with the exterior colour of your luggage but also look incredibly chic.

Verdict

I recently took my BÉIS suitcase on a 9-day trip, and it exceeded all my expectations. Despite being almost full, the zips were incredibly robust, and the inside pockets were excellent for compressing clothes. I never had to worry about anything spilling out when I opened the case. I highly recommend this suitcase for anyone planning an 8-day trip or longer. It’s a reliable and stylish travel companion that makes packing and unpacking a breeze.

The suitcases are made from durable polycarbonate, which is flexible and can handle being thrown around without cracking. However, like most luggage, light-colored suitcases may show scuffs and scratches more easily. BÉIS addresses this by using a textured shell that helps hide these marks.

Overall, the combination of durable materials and thoughtful design features ensures that BÉIS suitcases, even in lighter colours, can stand up to the demands of travel while still looking stylish.

I would highly recommend as my reliable and stylish travel companion that makes packing and unpacking a breeze.
