Let me introduce you to my game-changing travel companion – the Rollaer cabin suitcase. After spotting it on “Dragon’s Den”, where it won investment and plenty of praise, I knew it was destined to join me on my escapades.
A genuine standout, this suitcase combines thoughtful design, smart engineering, and travel practicality to make every journey less of a hassle and more of an adventure.
Available in four fab colours – naturally, I went for the sleek blue – the Rollaer’s compact dimensions are its superpower. It’s perfectly compliant with budget airlines like Ryanair (no extra fees, hallelujah!) and designed to fit snugly in overhead compartments. The lightweight build, crafted from sustainable, recycled materials, is durable and easy to handle – a win for eco-warriors like me who care about traveling greener. But the pièce de résistance? Its unique roller mechanism, which glides smoothly across all surfaces, from polished airport floors to the bumpy cobblestones of Matera, Italy.
Speaking of cobblestones, Matera was the perfect testing ground! Renowned for its steep steps and rough streets, the town put the Rollaer to the ultimate test. Loaded to capacity, the suitcase didn’t flinch. It navigated the uneven terrain with ease, staying steady throughout – although it rocked slightly at times. That said, it completely outperformed traditional spinner-wheeled luggage in terms of noise and manoeuvrability.
My only minor gripe? The roller did get dirty, and when I lifted it into the overhead bin, I noticed marks on my clothes. But honestly, that was a small price to pay for the overall performance.
On top of style and practicality, sustainability is baked into Rollaer’s DNA. It’s made from recycled components, features a robust polycarbonate hard-shell, and has smart extras like packing straps, a zip-around divider, and a telescopic handle. Oh, and did I mention the TSA-approved lock for secure travel?
The list of features speaks for itself:
Two durable rubber rollers for smooth rides
Cabin compliant dimensions: H: 53cm. W: 38cm. D: 20cm
Polycarbonate hardshell for water resistance
Telescopic handle with adjustable height
Embedded TSA lock for security
YKK zippers for reliability
Packing straps and zip divider for tidy organization
Capacity of 34L and weight of just 3.4kg
If you’re looking for a suitcase that’s stylish, sustainable, and stress-free, the Rollaer is it. Whether navigating airports or tackling tricky cobblestones, this investment-backed gem has you covered – literally! I’d recommend it to any traveller wanting eco-conscious innovation and reliable performance. Safe travels!
