What do you think about this beautiful piece of luggage? Let's talk about it below!
Check out the Carl Friedrik Pro Luggage here: friedrik.co/nds
For the $600, you get quality wheels, hand crafted secured grab handles, security features: no zippers = no pen opening your bag!
It's not a luxury if it's functional, well used, and brings you joy!
I ❤️ that you addressed being prepared if your bag gets checked! I use admin panels for tech, and having a packable bag will come in handy for a quick shift.
I prefer to travel lighter. Almost 5 lbs/4.3 Kg is the true cost.
I’m obsessed with that luggage!! 😍😍 Gray and cognac are my favorite color combo for luggage.
It’s so sexy haha
@@ItsTheKellys yes ma’am! It really is! 😂
Thanks for showing us the fancy stuff 😊. Out of my price range but a girl can dream 😊. Thank for another great review.
Love the review… I see that they even offer “returned” items at a great price… I will have to keep my eyes out… their products are stunning.
Thanks again for such a great detailed review!!!
Oooh good to know! I missed that!
That’s a beautiful bag!😍
Thank you for another great review! That suitcase is very beautiful and eye catching!! Now obsessed with all things trunk luggage! I have one full aluminum from Away Luggage and one hybrid truck piece from Level Eight luggage! I believe I will start saving now to get myself one of these Carl Friedrik pieces!! I had never heard of this brand until I saw it sitting on your shelf and you told me the name! What a find!
It’s so gorgeous! I know you will love it
My husband has this bag, and he absolutely loves it. It's even more beautiful in person!
I want to know about the pistachio colored Level8 behind you!! That bag looks gorgeous!
I will be reviewing that Level 8 bag very soon!
What a satisfying video!! You are a PRO much like this Carry on!
Thank you!
Great review!
Thanks Frank! I have some other Carl Friedrik reviews on the horizon as well.
Not in the market for a luxury piece of luggage, but loved to see the features (and the packing of it) anyway!
Are there any videos on how to setup the combination lock on the Carl Friedrick Trunk?
Outstanding review as always. I’ve always been really interested in this luggage brand and I’m REALLY impressed with the quality. It certainly looks great, but I’m not sure I’d want this to be my EDC luggage for my very standard travel. If I flew private or traveled where I knew I’d personally have full control of my luggage I’d might go for this. Granted, I throw around my Tumi luggage everywhere and don’t give a shi*…so YMMV as with all things. I always appreciate the shoe test.
Good points and thank you for the kind words.
I think this amazing for the people who can afford luxury bags but I don’t know if I (a person with a regular income) could justify spending that much more money when there are cheaper bags with lifetime warranties. That being said I love you exposing us to fancy stuff 😂
I so agree!! The most expensive bag I own is A Travel Pro!
I hear where you are coming from, fully. I used to be a TravelPro person for many years. Great quality and the warranty wasn’t bad but wasn’t great. That being said, I use “luxury luggage” for my everyday travel. My carry on is well over $700, my check back is well over $1200. I share that information for the price point compared to the luggage shown in the review. The quality is better, the function is better, and the biggest different…the warranty. It’s so easy to take my luggage to any store in the world and they will fix it or I’ll walk out with a brand new piece. Even areas without a store (which is frequently) I can send it to a location overnight and the same process happens. So the longest I’m without my luggage is three days. They pay for shipping. No questions asked, no forms…They look at it, repair it or send me on my way with a new “comprable” piece. That’s what my money pays for and that level of service and connivence is worth it to me.
For reference I’m on a plane a few times a week. Would I recommend this kind of luggage for the once a year traveler, most likely not. YMMV as always.
It is a beautiful travel suitcase for sure. Having said that, regardless of the price (I cannot afford anyway) I do not want anything that supposedly would last me a lifetime! I get tired of things eventually and like to switch off luggage since new ones are always coming out on the market with various upgrades. Thank you for your review.
Wow! It’s beautiful! Packing cubes too! Question….is that a new ttg make up case? If so, do you have the link? Thanks🌸
Yes it is! Review coming soon :) amzn.to/49bTuNQ
Great video!
Thanks!
I love the double compression and actually surprised the price tag isn’t higher.
Me too! It’s honestly not a whole lot more than the Monos trunk style pro.
It is definitely a beautiful bag, although I would probably never spend that much. I appreciate you showing us though!
Thanks for watching and giving your feedback Peggy!
I really love it
Me too!
I love your reviews, they are so thorough. Have your reviewed the Heys Carry-on luggage? I scrolled through your videos but didn't see one. I would be interested to hear your thoughts.
I reviewed the heys airlite here. I, also, reviewed their earth tone collection as well
.be/DdnmiJo_ycA
I think it’s really good luggage at a good prices
@ItsTheKellys Thank you for responding so quickly. I was looking at the Heys Luxe 21 inch carry-on. It has a metallic finish and wondered how it would hold up.
@ItsTheKellys The link to your review of the Heys carry-on didn't work for me. What did you think of the size? Were their dimensions accurate?
I have reviewed 2 different heys bags and have 2 more reviews coming. I haven’t reviewed the luxe though. They are wonderful bags and great sizes and I’ve even traveled with them a lot. I have several videos about them. You can just Google it’s the Kellys Heys and it will all come up!
Amazing review, thank you!
What I miss in the review:
- How wheels and handle is (roll it on the street?) and how would you compare/rank it, perhaps have a table vs other bags (similar price?).
- To the same table I would add empty weight and packing space.
No doubt it's a great bag (at that price), but so is Tumi, BR, Rimowa, etc I guess?
I have never had the opportunity to review Tumi, BR, Or Rimowa, as those bigger companies don’t respond to me, unfortunately.
I always do a ranking every year, with tables like you mentioned, but again, this is the most expensive bag I own. I will throw it into a pro bag showdown or a trunk showdown eventually.
Found a retailer in London that’s willing to give me a discount on it but really cannot justify paying 3X over a Level8 and Aerotrunk that I have for comparison.
If I have to show up at clients’ from airport probably but if just flying for leisure, even in premium seats, the Level8 won’t be embarrassing
Question for you. Do you think the extra compression pad would work in your blush heys suitcase?
hmmmmmm I might have to do some experimenting.
You are excellent with your presentation. My question is do to recommend to purchase this carry on pro directly from the manufacturer? I did find the same bag from MATCHES and HUCKLEBERRY online. Do you recommend either one of these companies? Thank you for your help.
I am not familiar with MATCHES or HUCKLEBERRY online. I usually get my items direct but as long as it doesn't interfere with warranties, I don't see why not.
Ok. I received confirmation from the company that the lifetime warranty will be granted purchasing from the online retailer. I’m good to go
I have been a huge fan of your channel for a long time, I’m a big monos fan because of your channel that’s what I own but I’d love to purchase a really nice carryon pro and I do believe this one fits the bill but I wish it was a tiny bit cheaper!! We need discount code!!???? Lol 😂 I loved this review it was excellent as always
Cheers and love from Canada 🇨🇦
Unfortunately most luxury brands don’t do discounts :(
But thank you! 🥰
@@ItsTheKellys lol I didn’t think they offered code but it doesn’t hurt to ask!! I do think I’ll get the regular carryon and those packing cubes!! As I Alison live the monos cubes in my mono, you are right you want it to fit good buy from the same company! I know my husband will love this carry in its very sharp looking!
@pinknbling9532 oh yes always ask 🥰 update me when you get it!
@@ItsTheKellys will do! I’m sure my husband will love it! But I’ll let you know lol he is kinda fussy! He just likes what he likes!
Love you so much
I love my Monos. I wish they had compression on both sides. I like to pack my clothes upright/ Marie Kondo style, so the Monos packing cubes are almost perfect- they have the structure I like, but are just a bit too tall for the luggage if I don't compress them down. I will have to check out the dimensions on these packing cubes.
Perfect cubes are about 4” deep, in my opinion!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I'm pretty much convinced, travelling almost every month for work on 3-4 day-trips, this one seems to full-full every needs, from functionality all the way to the looks of it.
I was just curious if anyone know the dimensions of the handle? As my current briefcase has a tight slip-through back panel. Would be nice if someone can share it.
Thanks!!!
It is 6.5 inches at the widest :)
Thank you so much! :-) @@ItsTheKellys
It's a nice bag, great warranty but I'm not understanding why the price is so high. You have reviewed other carryons where the front pocket opens with a button latch which I feel is much better than ziopers so I would think that this much higher priced piece would also have that. Great indepth review, thanks very much Lauren 👍🏻
The same reason that designer purses are so much more than non designer purses of equal quality cost so much more. It’s all about branding.
For "luxury" brands I like Briggs and Riley. They are really pricey. I got lucky and got my two on sale which is not something they do often. I also have a rolling garment bag I got back in the late 90's it was a gift and 50% off and its still in great shape. While it might last a lifetime technology and features evolve and I would never use it because it's heavy, only has two wheels and clips closed. For the time cutting edge 25 years later not so much. I totally get the buy it once have it forever mindset but with luggage evolving you might not want it forever. I am actually anxiously awaiting the arrival a Heys carryon I bought after watching your video, it's supposed to be coming today.
Can’t wait to see how you like it! And I’m desperate to try Briggs and Riley
@@ItsTheKellys I have a luggage problem and I was at Nordstrom Rack and they had a Tumi for over half off. I bought it in a shopping frenzy got it home and tried it and I didn't like it. Briggs and Riley also has a lifetime warranty I have yet to come across a brand with a warranty to match it. My Heys came yeah! On sight I really like it, better than the Tumi. I'll practice pack it this weekend and will use it for a trip in March.
What's the name of the bag that is next to her head on the right side of the screen? It's the one that is all black, zipper less with the gold trim. That looks so pretty. I hope there was a review for it. :)
If it’s the one right next to my head, it’s actually brown and it’s the July trunk. I have reviewed it!
th-cam.com/video/Pzd9Dn446qk/w-d-xo.html
What is that green carry on bag over your right shoulder? Don’t remember seeing that one.
It’s coming soon! It’s from Level 8
Can’t wait!
I love a good carry-on trunk but personally I don’t know if I would pay $600. It’s a beautiful and chic luggage.
This might be too big for Air canada Carry on …. I just bought a Monos Pro , based on your very well done reviews I can’t wait to get it
Yes most pro bags with pockets that stick out don’t do well with Air Canada. Enjoy the Monos Pro! Keep me posted!
Wish I could afford one
Maybe we can find you a more affordable hybrid soon! I have a few more coming!
I can see this luggage lasting a long long time. And in full black looks amazing. The only thing I cannot seemed to understand is, why not the TSA lock for the front compartment?! Is Level 8 the only company doing that? Also, not necessary, but it would be cool if it had a charger. Now, maybe that would make it look too modern, and they seem to not be trying to go that way, more than stylish and premium way. A good investment if you travel very often, probably for business if you want to keep a professional appearance even at the airport, and want your luggage to last you a while.
I know, there needs to be a lock! But when it comes to chargers in bags, they suuuuuuck. It’s never a good one
It's so beautiful! But I don't travel enough to justify that cost.
Exquisite carryon pro but way too heavy. It would be a check in bag in Asia for sure! Would you tell us what brand/style your makeup bag is and where you got it please? By the way vacchetta is pronouned “vaketta”.
It’s brand new from tripped travel gear! I just got it the day I filmed this! amzn.to/49bTuNQ
Unfortunately I don’t get to travel enough to justify spending that much money on a suitcase that I don’t find good looking. I’ll stick with my Level8.
I am not one to watch video's for products...much prefer to experience for myself. Some hard lessons over the decades. However, your video's have become a bit addictive. Literally at times laughing as you attempt to destroy the bags. Especially useful are your measurements. This is of high importance. Wondering, in regard to this specific piece; have you tested it with any carry on bins to see if it will fit with various Airlines?
Thank you so much, this comment made my day. I have not taken the to the carry on bins, simply because my airport only has the major US domestic airlines, and their bins are honestly pretty big and everything fits in them :-/ I would take this one domestically, but not internationally.
@@ItsTheKellys Thank you for taking time to reply. Did not want to get this piece if it would not work as intended. I'll purchase if they ever have a sale! Really appreciate your time and reassurance this will work domestically.
anyone carried one of these on a united trip?
Really, luxurious looking and functional. Is it scratch resistant?
I’ll update when we travel with it!
It's pretty but way too heavy. And, I always think that pro bags aren't really carry on size. They get a little large. Would have been interesting to see your "torture" test across the stones and throwing it and having your son to jump on it. Just wonder if the more expensive ones hold up better. PS Really thought that purple scarf from the last trip was a great color!!
Thank you! I don’t really do the torture tests unless a luggage claims to be indestructible.
I own this bag. The aesthetics are amazing. Capacity is great also. The wheels are ok but nothing special but decent, even though the brand and influencers say they are great. Where it falls short is the retractable handle and grab handle. It's less than low quality. You will find a better retractable handle and grab handle on a bag for $40 at a mass retailer. It's terrible quality.
Thanks for sharing!
$600?? I know my hubby would have a fit if i spent that on a carry on suitcase.
It was nice to window shop this bag. It is gorgeous, but too pricey for my budget. I also don't travel with my laptop so any bag that has that front "office" is not going to be on my list.
What is your typical budget for future reviews? 🥰
I Wish They Had Sent You,
the piece You Had Requested!
I’m Interested in This Luggage,
but DON’T like the “pro” additions.
I hear ya. They did apologize, but said it is their best seller.
Gurl u have a lot of luggage 😂😂
It’s all you guy’s fault 😂😂
Thanks for the review!! It’s so stunning 🥹 Can’t wait to see an update to see how it holds up after travel.
Have you heard of Floyd One Luggage? Would be cool if you were able to review that luggage as well.
I have heard of them! I have to reach out to:)
Love the bag and seeing u videoing it. Out of my price range @ this point🥲
Did buy the Level8 Freeloop carryon and packing cubes🥰. Will use for my Alaska trip in May. This is the second carryon I’ve bought based on your reviews 🥰. The collapsible carryon is a little smaller than I thought it would be🤔so I haven’t tried it yet. I do like the fact it collapsible 🥰. U do such a good job on reviewing new products 🥰🥰
