Crappy Barracuda Travel Bags I really like this bag in the beginning but he quality of materials is seriously lacking. The handle is tearing away at the top and the zipper around the corners are frayed. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS CRAPPY BAG!!!! I used a Samsonite carry on bag for 18 years (20 trips yearly) with no issues.

21st Century Luggage Super ambitious product germinated from a kickstarter campaign. I see some weakness with it - zipper on main compartment is not smooth, quality of the teeth mediocre - but overall, for a first-launch product (compared to the big boys in the industry that have had years of testing), the Barracuda team has done exceptionally well.. delivering a product with bells and whistles (collapsable, charger, tracker) that are indeed a beautiful and refreshing thing. I'm sure the company will smooth it out over time. I was reassured by the Chief Design Officer, Boban... "We do offer a 5 year warranty and if the zipper, or anything else, ever fail on you please do let us know and we will be happy to get that fixed/replaced."

High Price for Terrible Quality I fell for the reviews of this product on its own website like I'm sure many others did. It looked like the coolest new suitcase to hit the market with all the extra features (the collapsibility was what really sold me because I live in a small house and saving that room was huge). It turns out, they must only post the best reviews they select on their website from sponsors of theirs, because as you can see by the reviews on here and on Amazon, it does not live up to the hype. I don't enjoy when companies are dishonest like this first of all. To add; My zipper has already separated from the fabric in two parts so I don't expect it to last much longer. The zipper also has peeled apart in one spot and will not zip correctly anymore. The balance of the suitcase is terrible and if you load it with a normal weekend pack, it will constantly fall over forward. I found the extra features like the battery pack and the tray table useless because the plastic is so cheap and fitted so tightly that you can barely even get into these compartments unless you use a knife or something to that effect. It also is much smaller than other carryons that I have had. Overall please just save your money and skip the disappointment, I felt enough of it for everyone else!

As promised! I am very happy with my Barracuda! It meets almost all of my expectations. The tracking unit could have been explained better before placing an order. Learning the limitations, I may rely on another product. Otherwise it is beautiful. I do hope it will hold up with extended use.

Horrible customer service Horrible customer service. Will not reply after 4 emails to try and get zipper fixed. 3 weeks and counting. Bags will break, it is my expectations that someone has customer service to facilitate their 5 year warranty.
