Samsonite Pivot Review (Hot Or Not?)

The Pivot collection from Samsonite is one of their latest masterpieces that is both super-light and also on the lower end of the price scale.

It comes with more than enough features to suit most people but won’t break the bank. And that’s great news if you want a quality suitcase like Samsonite is renowned for.

But, does it have enough features to allow you to pack what you want, carry it with comfort and also last you for years to come?

Let’s jump into the details and find out what the Samsonite Pivot is made of.

About The Pivot Collection

Samsonite Pivot comes in three sizes. The smallest one is a carry-on, and the larger two suitcases would have to be checked at an airport.

If you’re a newbie to luggage shopping, you’re probably a little bit confused by the two different dimensions of each suitcase. Here’s the thing; body dimensions of the suitcase are the exact dimensions of its shell.

The overall dimensions also include the wheels and the handle, and they are the dimensions that the airline is going to look at when deciding whether you need to check your suitcase. The good thing is that the smallest Pivot is a carry-on according to most airlines’ standards, so you don’t have to worry about that.

Now, arguably the most important specification of a suitcase is its weight. What’s the point in buying a really nice carry-on if it weighs 10 lbs, and you can only bring 20 lbs inside the cabin? That’s why you’ll really like these Samsonites if you’re looking for airline-approved luggage. They are extremely lightweight, which means that you’ll be able to pack pretty much anything you need in them.

Just be careful with the largest suitcase – even though it’s still pretty light, it’s always easy to go over 50 lbs if you overpack.

And now we’ll get a little bit into why exactly these suitcases weigh so little. Yes, it’s time to talk about the materials that the Pivot collection is made of, but also about all of its other features.
