luggage recommendation

I am planning for the two months europe trip what luggage you recommend?
I want something in lightweight, adjustable and not so huge.....
Thanks in advance

I was at Macys on Wednesday and they had a 50% off sale. It may not still be going on, but it's worth checking.

I have also heard that the wheels that can turn 360 degrees break frequently.

Here's a website that may be of some use: http://www.roadandtravel.com/yougogirl/lightweighluggage.htm

LL Bean. Their rolling duffle bags are the best around. I every week with mine.

They also have some more traditional offerings.

All of it is no questions asked, guaranteed for life.

I have been using LL Bean bags for 25yrs and I think they trump anything else out there.

Check out your local Ross store before buying. I've found some really good deals on good quality Samsonite pieces.

Good comments on brands and wheels. Major consideration is how much to take on a trip. If moving from city to city by train, bus, etc it is important to keep the luggage to a minimum. This of course needs to start with what to put in the luggage and then proceed to the luggage. If you watch Europeans travel they often have one small bag and optimize what they carry in that bag. My wife and I were in Rome a couple years ago as first stop on a 15 day cruise. We had 3 large (30") bags plus backpacks. Stayed at a B&B and the others at the B&B looked at us like we were crazy with all of the luggage. In the end they were right. We over packed. We should have kept to 2 bags max. Which we are doing on our next trip to Rome and cruise end of the year.

My recommendation is determine what you need, put it on a bed and then cut down the amount by at least a 1/4. Then look for luggage that is lightweight and follow some of the other recommendations as posted.

Good luck. Have a good trip.

I so recommend Century 21 for luggage. In September 2011, I shopped at Macy's first for their wide selection and sale. Macy's inexpensive luggage clearly would not stand up to too many trips through the TSA handlers. Their Delsey, Hartmann, Samsonite, seemed rather expensive. On a whim, I stopped at Century 21 the same night and found similar luggage brands and the exact same Delsey luggage (also in orange) at less than 1/2 the price of Macy's--$60 for a 21" that would fit in overhead compartment with pockets and handles but not spinning wheels. Bought 1 black and 1 orange.

Traveling in Europe means lot of travel and change of hotels. You may have to take local transport to reach your hotel/hostel many times. Often you'll leave the bag in a locker in the rail station.

Backpack is the first option if you can handle it.

Or choose a baggage with wheels but can also be carried as a backpack. I traveled for 3 weeks last year with a High Sierra A.T. Gear Classic 22" Wheeled Backpack Carry-On. It has a detachable backpack. I could fit a week's clothes in this along with my ipad. I would just roll the clothes like the flight attendants do. You'll always find laundromat to wash for a few euros. And i would buy stuff like toiletries locally.
