Best White Luggage (From Budget To Value)

Rimowa Essential Cabin

Rimowa is the brand that invented the polycarbonate suitcase, so it shouldn’t be surprising that they’re first on the list. The Essential Cabin suitcase is a small PC carry-on, but the luggage collection features three other cases in white color. It’s worth noting that Rimowa’s hybrid collection is also available in a white color and it features luggage made from a mixture of polycarbonate and aluminum.

The Essential Cabin is Rimowa’s most popular luggage. It’s a small carry-on with smooth double spinner wheels, a wheel handle allowing stageless adjustment, and a TSA-friendly lock. Unlike Rimowa’s aluminum luggage, this suitcase features a zippered closure.

All the corners of the luggage are reinforced for excellent durability and impact resistance. The Essential Cabin also features low-profile grab handles on the top and side. This luggage is also available in Check-In M and Trunk Plus versions, as well as one smaller size.

There are two packing compartments inside the suitcase and each is equipped with a height adjustable Flex divider. It acts as a compression pad, allowing you to squeeze a few more items inside than you might initially think is possible. Both packing compartments are fully lined and each divider has a zippered pocket.

Travelpro Roundtrip Hardside Luggage Set

Travelpro is another excellent luggage brand popular with frequent travelers, and they’ve got options in most colors. The Roundtrip luggage set is available in a white color and it features two suitcases – a 21” carry-on and a 25” medium checked bag. The carry-on is perfect for trips of up to a week, while the 25” bag can easily get you through trips that are two weeks long.

Pack both suitcases and you can comfortably go away for three weeks or even longer if you’re a pro at packing light. These suitcases feature a shell made from pure polycarbonate, which means that they’re extremely durable. The shell has excellent impact and abrasion resistance, but not the best scratch resistance.

Both suitcases feature reinforced corners, for even better durability. Additional features are also pretty much identical on this luggage and the size is the only noticeable difference. The Roundtrip suitcases are equipped with double spinner wheels, a height-adjustable wheel handle, a TSA-approved combination lock, and an expandable capacity.

The interior of the Travelpro luggage is fully lined and there’s a zippered divider in each compartment. Also, there are accessory pockets on the divider in the bottom compartment, which will help you keep the interior of your luggage organized. The divider in the top compartment doesn’t have any pockets, but it is half-mesh half-opaque, so you can easily see what’s inside it.

Monos Carry-On Pro

Monos is a premium luggage brand known for the excellent quality of its products. All of their suitcases are manufactured from durable polycarbonate and they’ve got all the features you would expect in high-end luggage. The Carry-On Pro suitcase is my favorite option out of the bunch, but you should know that there are five other luggage sizes to choose from.

The Carry-On Pro is special because it’s got an external front compartment with padded sleeves for electronics and other items. The basic Carry-On is the exact same size but it doesn’t have this compartment, while the Carry-On Pro Plus features the exterior zippered pocket but it’s bigger.

In addition to the durable construction of the shell, this luggage also boasts smooth and silent double-spinner wheels, a height-adjustable wheel handle, and a TSA-approved lock.

The interior of the cases features an anti-microbial lining, as well as a removable compression pad with built-in pockets. The organizational features of this luggage are excellent, and if you like having a dedicated spot for every item, you’ll really like this bag.

Another thing to note is that the Monos luggage is available in a classic white color, but also a limited Terrazzo print. The print version features a white background with colorful accents, and it looks absolutely gorgeous.

Samsonite Freeform

The Freeform is one of Samsonite’s best-selling suitcases, mostly because of its attractive price point. It’s not an expensive suitcase, and if you want to stick with a trusted luggage manufacturer but don’t really want to spend too much money on a suitcase, the Freeform is certainly an option worth considering.

It’s manufactured from polypropylene, a lightweight type of plastic that is commonly used in the production of hardside luggage. Polypropylene is not quite as durable as polycarbonate but it is significantly lighter, which makes it the better option for travelers who prioritize weight over durability.

This Samsonite suitcase also featured double spinner wheels, a height-adjustable double barrel wheel handle, and a TSA-friendly lock. It’s got zippered closure and it features expandable capacity, which means you can get an extra inch of packing space in a pinch.

The interior of the Freeform is quite basic. It’s got two fully lined packing compartments with a zippered divider in the top one and elastic cross straps in the bottom one. There’s a convenient zippered pocket on the top divider, but I’m afraid it’s the only pocket you get on this suitcase.

This luggage is available in the carry-on size, as well as two larger checked bag options. One thing I must point out is that the carry-on version measures 23” tall, which might be a little too big for international flights. It’s fine for some airlines in the US, but most worldwide airlines don’t allow luggage taller than 22” inside the cabin.

Samsonite C-Lite

The C-Lite is Samsonite’s premium suitcase, which is obvious from the price point. It’s one of the brand’s most expensive pieces of luggage, so it’s a good option only if you’re looking to buy the absolute best suitcase you can, regardless of its cost.

One of the main reasons for the high price point of this luggage is the material it’s made from – Curv Material Recyclex. This is Samsonite’s proprietary material, developed from woven polypropylene fibers. The suitcase manages to be incredibly lightweight (4.5 lbs for a carry-on with wheels is incredible in my book) but still offers premium durability and impact resistance that can compete with that of polycarbonate.

Additionally, the C-Lite luggage is equipped with all the other features you would expect from a premium piece of luggage, including smooth double-spinner wheels, a TSA-friendly lock, and a height-adjustable wheel handle. There’s also a USB port on the TSA lock, for charging on the go.

Perhaps the only downside of this suitcase is the lack of expandable capacity. Also, there’s no lining inside this suitcase, but that’s Samsonite trying to make the C-Lite as light as possible. There is a zippered divider in the top compartment, as well as a small pocket for a power bank. There’s another zippered pocket in the bottom compartment, plus a pair of elastic cross straps.

DELSEY Paris Chatelet Hard+ Luggage

Delsey Paris Chatelet is one of my favorite suitcases, at least in terms of design and features. It’s a beautiful suitcase and it’s available in a beautiful white color with fashionable (faux) leather accents. The luggage is made from pure polycarbonate, so it’s very durable and impact resistant.

The Chatelet suitcase features smooth double-spinner wheels with a built-in brake. You can activate the brake with the push of a button, and it’s a convenient feature that I often wish I had on some of my other luggage. In addition to the silent spinner wheels, this luggage is also equipped with a TSA-approved lock and a height-adjustable wheel handle.

There’s no expandable capacity on the Chatelet carry-on, but that just makes it a lot harder to overpack and pay overweight baggage fees. Also, the interior of this luggage is absolutely my favorite feature, and it’s not even because of the beautiful and striking red lining.

Each compartment has a zippered divider and elastic cross straps inside. There are also multiple zippered pockets on the dividers, allowing you to keep everything as neatly organized as you want. On top of that, Delsey includes removable bags for shoes and laundry with each of these suitcases, as well as a removable travel hanger.

The suitcase is a little pricey, but it’s worth noting that it’s an older model so it’s discounted fairly often.

American Tourister Moonlight

American Tourister Moonlight is one of the better options for travelers on tighter budgets. The brand is owned by Samsonite so the luggage is still really good quality, but it’s generally much more affordable. That’s partly because American Tourister manufactures luggage with cheaper materials, and the Moonlight suitcase is made from a mixture of ABS plastic and polycarbonate.

It’s wont be extremely durable, but in all honesty that doesn’t matter too much if we’re talking about carry-on luggage. It’s the checked bags that get thrown around a lot that should be made with the strongest materials, but you’re generally fine with cheaper options for carry-on.

The suitcase is available in a beautiful iridescent white color, as well as a couple of marble white color options. If you want a printed white suitcase, it’s easily one of the best options.

The features of the Moonlight suitcase include double spinner wheels, a telescopic wheel handle, and an expandable capacity. There’s no lock on this suitcase, but you could always use a TSA-friendly padlock if you wanted to keep your luggage extra secure.

The interior is fully lined with a mesh divider in the top pocket and elastic cross straps in the bottom. There’s only one zippered pocket inside the luggage.

Coolife Luggage Suitcase Set

The Coolife luggage set is a really good option for travelers on a tighter budget. It’s a very affordable set, and it includes two beautiful white suitcases. You get a 20” carry-on with an external compartment and a 28” large checked bag. Both pieces of luggage are made from a mixture of ABS and polycarbonate, which combines the best features of each material.

The smaller suitcase is good for trips of up to a week, while the bigger one can easily get you through trips that are more than two weeks long. Combine these two suitcases and you can comfortably pack for a month in this luggage set.

The carry-on is special because it has an external zippered compartment with a padded sleeve for tablets, laptops, and other small items. The suitcase also has a TSA-friendly lock, and it’s possible to lock both the main and the front compartment, which I absolutely love. The bigger suitcase also has a TSA lock, but it lacks the front compartment.

Both suitcases feature double-spinner wheels, telescopic wheel handles, and low-profile grab handles. They’ve also got two fully lined packing compartments with a zippered divider in the top one and elastic cross straps in the bottom one. The bigger suitcase also features expandable capacity, a feature that is lacking in the carry-on.

Hanke Hardside Luggage

The white Hanke suitcase is another piece of luggage I include primarily because it has an external compartment. It just makes your life much easier, especially when you’re stuck at the airport for hours and you need to grab something from your luggage every now and then.

What’s special about this suitcase is that the front compartment also doubles as an access point to the main compartment. Instead of a zipper or latch locks at the center of the polycarbonate shell, this suitcase features an aluminum frame that significantly improves its durability and impact resistance.

The unusual opening type also makes the luggage more secure and less likely to burst open when it’s overpacked.

Of course, this opening style also means that you don’t get expandable capacity on the suitcase, so keep that in mind. When you first open the main compartment, you get access to the organizer panel that doubles as a compression pad. It’s got multiple sleeves and pockets, and it can easily fit all the items you might want to have handy at the airport.

Also, there are elastic cross straps underneath the divider pad, to keep the clothes in place.

Other features of the Hanke suitcase include double spinner wheels, a telescopic wheel handle, and a TSA-friendly lock to secure the YKK zippers. There are grab handles on the top and side of the suitcase, plus it’s worth noting that you can get this luggage in a smaller 18” version, as well as a larger 24” option.

Artrips Hardside Luggage

I felt like I had to include the Artrips suitcase in this review because of its unique design of the shell. It’s one of the prettiest white suitcases you can get your hands on, and if you like owning beautiful things, I think you’ll like this suitcase. At the moment of writing this, only the 24” checked bag is available in the white option.

The luggage features a unique design of the shell with rounded corners, which will absolutely stand out at the airport. The shell is polycarbonate, so the suitcase promises excellent durability and impact resistance.

Other features of this unique luggage include a TSA-friendly lock, top and side carry handles, a height-adjustable wheel handle, and smooth double-spinner wheels. Also, everything except for the buttons on the lock is the same shade of white, which just makes the suitcase stand out even more.

The interior of this luggage is fully lined and features two packing compartments. There’s a zippered divider in one compartment and elastic cross straps in the other, plus it’s worth noting that there are a couple of pockets on the zippered divider. Also, the 24” version of this luggage weighs less than 8 lbs, which is very impressive considering that some carry-ons are heavier than that.
