Another fab review, the paint drop collection had to be my fave (so fun!). All the luggage talk is getting me excited for when we can travel again! ✈️💃🏻
I'm going to ask my supervisor to receive approval if I can use this RIMOWA roller bag for crew use..Currently, crews use Travel Pro. They don't last and break fairly quickly, but the features I do like are the exterior pockets. Travel Pro caters to airline personnel so they know what features are essential. The exterior pockets help to hold water bottles, passports, iPad, Laptops and even a grab and go lunch at the airport as you go from one gate to the next. I wish RIMOWA had that one extra feature. Thanks for the review.
omg thanks for your continued support x! Rimowa does offer one with an external pocket, if I remember correctly, it's the "Essential Sleeve!" They're around 1k CAD if I remember right, but they basically would function the same as what you have now!
I finally caved and bought this case. I had a cheap £35 case but due to me being cabin crew it didn’t last five mins lol, this video helped me choose so thank you so much!
I've had this suitcase for 2 years and I've had to send it in for warranty twice. the first because the entire internal part came apart after very little use the second literally made a hole in the plastic support that holds the handle. bag with very little use. I sent several emails and never got a response.
Any issues with this fitting in the overhead? How about the regular Essential Cabin? Trying to decide between the two, and neither fit within the standard measurement requirements for carry-on, so I'm wondering if I'd run into a gate-check issue. Thoughts?
Hey! I've never had any issues with mine, the Essential Cabin S, and my partner hasn't had any issues with the regular Cabin size, but I guess it depends how often you travel and whether or not it's mostly domestic or international. I find they fit similar amounts too, I have an updated video on my channel if you want to see a comparison! If you're worried about the space, for peace of mind, I'd probably go with the S size 😄
one advantage of the polycarbonate luggages over aluminum ones is that they would never "electrocute" us with static electricity through the handle LOL
I didn’t realize Rimowa did so many collabs beside dior! Boujee and fab! I’ve been traveling with Tumi luggage and it’s nice for sure but has scratched a bit already.
Hey Thor! So Im actually going to London next month (SO excited!!) I ended up getting the away luggage because I wasnt sure if I could justify so much on on Rimowa. I also heard the quality has decreased since LVMH bought the brand. Have you been able to travel with it/ how has it held up? Might stick with the away for this trip because the 100 day trial + larger capacity is nice but looking to invest in Rimowa :)
Omg so exciting!! To be able to travel again 🥹💕 I’ve heard great things about Away, so if you have one I probably wouldn’t go for a Rimowa. I’ve also heard quality has gone down since LMVH acquired them, in classic LVMH fashion. I’ve travelled with mine quite a bit and no issues for me personally, at the end of the day it’s just a carry on and any will do the trick! Id say only to invest in rimowa if you want the look and the functionality of the wheels! I’ve never tried Away so I’m not sure how they hold up, but the wheels on the rimowa are amazing 🤩
@@anthorpology Ive heard rimowa wheels are the BEST! But I do appreciate the extra almost 10 liters of volume Away bags have. Hopefully it does well on the journey!! Thank you!! ❤️❤️🥺
@@anushkasunshine omg yeah nothing compares to extra space! Have an amazing time, I’ve never been to London so I can only imagine what you have planned 😍💷🇬🇧
I think so if you get the Cabin-S size! Depends how long you’re flying, we’ve used the regular Cabin size to travel from Vancouver to Toronto no problem!
@@anthorpology Oh okay, so do you think a classic cabin that’s 55x40x23 cm will be fine? I’ve been saving up for this and I don’t want to accidentally buy it to later find out it doesn’t fit for carry-on jn economy haha 😅
I think so! My mum got the regular cabin size and it worked for her travelling domestically! I think the airlines post their carry-on maximums so you can always double check their before purchasing to be sure! There's not that much difference between the two sizes only like an inch or so th-cam.com/video/rVUzzkqdjRM/w-d-xo.html I have this video here if you want to see them side by side
Nice review! The only thing I dun really like on this case is the zipper. Actually the weight difference vs the Classic series is not that huge. 4.2 vs 3.1 kg Classic Cabin S, Aluminium Measurement 55 x 40 x 20 CM Weight 4,2 Kg Volume 33 L Essential Cabin S, Polycarbonate Measurement 55 x 39 x 20 CM Weight 3,1 Kg Volume 34 L
@@chesttubay5352 I have the Cabin S, but my partner has the regular Cabin. most of the dimensions are the same, but the Cabin is just a bit deeper than the S. But it should still fit on all airlines
it’s funny because the last video i watched the lady had the glossy black and said the exact opposite 😂😂😂. She said get the glossy black if you don’t want scratches and dents to show up as much as the matte black shows scuff marks more easily than the glossy. so which is right, since you both said the exact opposite!
Currently shopping for Rimowa Essential Cabin, and both the Paris and Belgian stores say the black glossy is less obvious with scratches than the black matte.
That's a fair question for sure! I went with it because I basically stood on the luggage and found that through the weight of my body it didn't break, crack or even dent. I like the wheels as well being 360 and decided against the aluminum as I found it too heavy for what I wanted. In the end I could've gone for a cheaper plastic one and it would be just fine. Thank you for watching and commenting!
hey! thanks for watching 🤩 I have a portion in either this video or the video where I compare the matte caption glossy on how to unlock these ones! Rimowa has a few different locks depending on which model you get
Thank you for this lovely and thorough review. Most reviews are about the aluminum version and all you said about it makes total sense. Great job!
Just ordered my Rimowa Essential Cabin, great informative video!
You're going to love it 💛
I just ordered this case and thought I’d better check some videos and phew! Thank you for this informative video! 😘🧡
Omg I'm glad you liked it 💛 which version did you order? their colours are so nice lately 😍
Another fab review, the paint drop collection had to be my fave (so fun!). All the luggage talk is getting me excited for when we can travel again! ✈️💃🏻
Omg right! I can’t wait to travel again 😭😍
Thank you very much, very informative video. I wanted green with glossy finish, but now I will think about it, I don’t want scratches on my suitcase.
Scratches will come 1000% but don't let that stop you, if anything it shows character and that you've been travelling!

I love your review 😍😍😍 definitely gonna buy this soon!!!

Omg thats terrible!
Best review! I'm considering the Rimowa clutch in black aluminium. Love that bag ❤️
Omg thank you 💛 I love the clutch, it’s not the bad compared to other designer brands as well! I love the polycarbonate ones 🤩
I’m looking at either this Rimowa or the Tumi International Carry-On. I can’t decide.
Both are good options! I find rimowa is more fun lately more colourful whereas tumi is more practical
How is it with air canada measurements? Also,the measurement of the luggage include the wheels?
Yes I tried to include wheels, no issues travelling with air Canada!
I’m getting the hybrid white gloss. I wished that the matte black has the same silver accent like the blue and just not all black.
omg love that combo! yeah I agree, maybe in a few collections they'll start making ones like that
@@anthorpology I would have gone with the matted black but it was just too dull with all black.

omg would hate to get off a place and get electrocuted by my luggage haha
thank for the awesome review :)
Thank you!!
I didn’t realize Rimowa did so many collabs beside dior! Boujee and fab! I’ve been traveling with Tumi luggage and it’s nice for sure but has scratched a bit already.
Omg yeah so many fun colours if luggage is your thing! Tumi are great luggage as well!
LVMH owns all those companies they do the collabs including Rimowa
@@mrsmith8224 supreme is not under lvmh
Great detailed video
Thank you 💛
Great review! What are your thoughts on the compact essential sleeve suitcase?
Thank you! I like it! I think if you are like a business person and looking for a nice work-travel suitcase it would be great!
your channel is good. also the video that you share is interesting I am very happy to watch it and useful tutorials👍👍❤💚
Thank you 💛💛💛
Does your telescopic handle ever go up unevenly? Mine does this lol
Sometimes yes ahaha but its pretty easy to correct!

Thanks for watching!
Does Polycarbonate suitcase get scratch?
Mine hasn't a lot, but like any luggage it will show wear!
THANK YOU for the awesome review my awesome friend. Looove your new Lux Luggage. happy to be a new subbie. Lets get connected always. ❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕
Thank you xxx
Nice review!
The only thing I dun really like on this case is the zipper.
Actually the weight difference vs the Classic series is not that huge. 4.2 vs 3.1 kg
Classic Cabin S, Aluminium
Measurement 55 x 40 x 20 CM
Weight 4,2 Kg
Volume 33 L
Essential Cabin S, Polycarbonate
Measurement 55 x 39 x 20 CM
Weight 3,1 Kg
Volume 34 L
Yeah the zipper is an issue for some. To be honest, on paper its not that much but in person, once it is filled, the metal is quite a bit heavier
I'm about to buy this today.. so this fits in the cabin i assume..I travel a lot do u think the plane will allow me to put it in the cabin?
yes I only bring carry on so it'll fit in there no problem!
@@anthorpology thank you..i just purchased it. your review is helpful. :)
@@chesttubay5352 omg thank you! I hope you like it, let me know how it goes :D
@@anthorpology Im confused between the cabin S and the Cabin.
@@chesttubay5352 I have the Cabin S, but my partner has the regular Cabin. most of the dimensions are the same, but the Cabin is just a bit deeper than the S. But it should still fit on all airlines
Buying a plastic Rimowa is like buying a Ferrari minivan.
I feel like a Ferrari minivan would be sick tho. functional and beautiful
@@anthorpology best reply lolol
So sweat sharing my friend
Thank you so much 🙂

She said get the glossy black if you don’t want scratches and dents to show up as much as the matte black shows scuff marks more easily than the glossy. so which is right, since you both said the exact opposite!
scratches and skid marks are more evident on any glossy surfaces on other hand, it is less noticeable on matt
Currently shopping for Rimowa Essential Cabin, and both the Paris and Belgian stores say the black glossy is less obvious with scratches than the black matte.
If your going to buy a plastic one why not just go for a no name brand ? Rimowa is only famous for their aluminum luggage.
That's a fair question for sure! I went with it because I basically stood on the luggage and found that through the weight of my body it didn't break, crack or even dent.

I got the white one, super cute, love it so much
omg I love the white colour! I wish I waited a little and got a colourful or lighter one! x thanks for watching and commenting!
@@anthorpology u can get a trunk in white and many cute colors now im eyeing the dusty pink one haha
Omg good idea! Yeah I really am drawn to the yellow colour! So bright and fun 🤩
Aluminum vs polycarbonate: Aluminum dents, but the dents can be hammered out.
Polycarbonate cracks, and can't be repaired.
True! me it was all the extra weight
@@anthorpology Then, excellent choice!!
👌🏻😍😍

What's up with the voice and gestures?
wtf kind of question is that?!
