RIMOWA Luggage Review 2024 (Is it Worth It?)

Рет қаралды 88,951

Күн бұрын

This is my RIMOWA luggage review. In this video I will go over the pros and cons of a suitcase like this and decide if it's worth the $1,700 price tag. I currently have the RIMOWA Original Cabin Twist Carry On luggage.
RIMOWA has been a staple brand in the luggage world and is definitely one of the more expensive options that you can find. Sure there are competitors like Tumi, or even Away so how does RIMOWA luggage stack up to them?
The RIMOWA Original Cabin is probably the most popular model that they currently sell and the Twist version is only slightly different. Basically the Twist model has colored accents and leather wrapped handles.
Hopefully this RIMOWA review will help you decide if you will purchase it or not.
Shoutout to ‪@AnthonyVenture‬ for telling me to make this video.

Im convinced people who promote it saying ‚ahh no no it adds character and tells a story about all of your journeys✨‘ just feel the pain of buying an overpriced product and want to distract themselves by promoting it like that as if they were a salesman of the company. As if someone ever is going to point at a dent and ask ‚which story is behind this‘ or point at a scratch and ask ‚what cool things happened that lead to this scratch?‘ its not only unrealistic but ridiculous. I appreciate the craftmanship but my 60€ trolley is very smooth too. Like fr i cant imagine it beeing smoother. If i pay for such a expensive ‚casing‘ then said casing should remain as it came.

Rimowa aluminum actually tends to be the lightest in comparison to other aluminum offerings by Away or Tumi. Rimowa tends to be in the 10 pound range whereas the others go past 11. It doesn't sound like much but any weight savings = more you can pack.

Have had complete set for 10 years -- traveled every corner of this earth from Antarctica to Amazon from Paris to Moscow to Bolivia... Biggest issue is that the clams get unaligned and get hard to close on occasion, the inability to expand like you said -- a fabric case can be expanded and I have had to replace the combination clamps. On the bright side; the case is money -- its strong, it bombproof, its dry. I have replaced wheels but I used them hard -- and they work amazing and smooth on any surface. Net of it... This is a normal metal product that can break like any other item -- and it does -- but the reward is that it is a solid friend 99% of the rest of the time.

Been using a rimowa for almost 10 years which lasted me a good 4-5 trips a year. Love the scars and dents. I've only had to replace the wheels once (which was my own cost as they don't have lifetime warranty for legacy rimowas), and they fixed most of the dents for me including leveling the suitcase shell, all for free. They even delivered it back to my hotel for free. Now that my family has grown I definitely will pick up a second one. It may cost a lot more than the regular samsonites or american touristers, but the same people I work with have to replace them every 2-3 years due to damage from rough handling or just rough usage. I'd go for the peace of mind and convenience. This is worth every cent. The only people I wouldn't recommend this for is someone who does heavy shopping when they travel, as there is indeed very little flexibility for space, unless it's all compressible clothing. My wife has a little workaround, which is to pack 1 or 2 empty shoeboxes into the luggage to make up the volume, then flatten them on the return trip - but only if we need them or need to carry fragile items.

For me personally,when the carry on luggage itself weight close to 4kg, it is a no go for me. My main issue with Rimowa carry on is always the weight. Most airlines only offers 7kg carry on limit and if luggage itself already 4kg, then you can only stuff so little things inside. Especially when I am not travelling with check in luggage. Carry on for me must always be lightweight and don’t really care to have a strong body of the luggage since I am the only one who is handling my carry on, so I do not have any concern on body damage.

try president brand and you will never worry about your luggage getting banged up. rimowa to me is just a status symbol. for 1700dollars it needs to be lightweight and sturdy.

don't get me wrong it is expensive, given the fact that you could get one 5 years ago for 700-800 new. But since lvmh and all the marketing it got more expensive, same with Birkenstock

idk about garbage because it is a good quality product. however the price is pretty steep and you can find other good quality suitcases for much less.

Ha. Why do people buy 4 wheel spinner bags? If you are ever at an airport look at what professional pilots use. 2 wheels so you can balance it with another bag. Almost no one travels with just a suitcase. Also the spinner bag is very feminine.

@ChaseYokoyama 4 ай бұрын

Well im not a pilot... Pilots also have guidelines to follow when it comes to their luggage. Although I will admit 2-wheel luggage is apparently more durable.

@blackbird7842 3 ай бұрын

It's because pilots don't have checked in luggage and stay overnight or 2 in that place and off to the next destination. Are you flying like that?
