SV asked:

I need to purchase a suitcase for my husband when he needs to check luggage. We have a carry-on for when he doesn’t need as much. But sometimes he needs a suit, dress shirts, extra shoes, jackets, etc. I want something with wheels as sometimes he has to change airlines and retrieve his luggage and travel to the other end of the airport and recheck it (no choice here – work makes the reservations). I’ve heard that the 29″ will be too heavy with the clothes in it. Is that true? Should we go with a suitcase or a garment bag? Should we consider 2 or 4 wheels? What do you recommend? Thanks for the replies!

Schneiderman asked:

OK, business travelers, I travel too much to buy cheap luggage. Yet, the thought of subjecting an investment to America’s baggage handlers is distressing. I often have to check my bag and need a GREAT garment bag that carries three to five suits and shirts. I want your opinion on the BEST, MOST DURABLE luggage.

Pender asked:

I don’t like carrying a separate garment bag. I’m looking for a single piece of luggage that will fold a suit like a garment bag but also let me pack everything else in the same suitcase and check it without worrying about the suit getting wrinkled. Any pointers? Maybe I just don’t know what keywords to search for.

I’ve also seen this wooden and metal device with a hanger hook on one end that you lay your suit in and it has a hinge so your suit can be folded and inserted into your luggage. Maybe that’s what I need, but I don’t know what it’s called. I’d really appreciate a link to where I can buy one.
