Storage
The tote bag gives you the ability to carry a fair number of items on board with you while allowing you to use it in everyday life. It comes with one exterior pocket, where you will be able to store any travel documents or items you need quick access to. Along with the main storage compartment, although this does not have a compartmental design like the under-seat suitcase in the Steve Madden Luggage 3 Piece Softside Spinner Suitcase Set, it does allow you to store more items, just not as organized. The carry-on has a storage capacity of 35 L, which is a lot of space for a small case. All three of the upright suitcases have two exterior pockets, one small pocket towards the top of the suitcase lid, and one large pocket towards the bottom of the case. You will be able to easily store your travel documents, books, pens, and work that you need easy access to when traveling. Once inside you will find the main luggage compartment where you will be able to store your clothes. The two straps will help keep your clothing in place throughout the journey, ensuring your suitcase is neat and tidy. On the inside of the lid, you will find a large mesh zip lined pocket, giving you the ability to safely store any loose items while you are on the go. You will also find inside a clear plastic detachable pocket which can handle your makeup or wet items without the risk of them spilling and spoiling the rest of your contents. All three of the upright suitcase have the option to be expanded to give you an extra two inches of storage capacity, making sure you are able to bring those holiday purchases back home with you.
Features
The Caribbean Joe Luggage Castaway 4-Piece Spinner Suitcase Set has most of the features that you would come to expect from luggage nowadays. The standout feature is most definitely the 8 spinner wheels. Most of the luggage that you will find on the market will have four spinner wheels, like the Tommy Bahama Mojito Four Piece Luggage Set. With 8 wheels, you will have more stability and control over your suitcase, making sure it goes in the direction and speed that you want to go. It makes for a smoother, more enjoyable trip, which is important if you are not able to bend down and pick up a suitcase that has tipped over due to the weight instability. The telescopic handle has been reinforced for additional stability, allowing you to push or pull the suitcases with little effort. The interior and exterior pockets give you the ability to organize your travel luggage efficiently while giving you easy access to all the contents inside. The top and side carry handles on the upright suitcases allow you to easily pick up and store the suitcases in a car trunk, overhead locker, or just getting them up and down the stairs. There is also a detachable shoulder carry strap on the tote bag so that you are able to carry it with ease.
Weight
The tote bag weighs in at 3 lbs which is around a pound heavier in weight as the tote bag in the Lily Bloom Furry Friends 4-Piece Collection. If you are conscious of the weight, you will be able to find alternatives on the market. The carry-on weighs in at 7.8 lbs, which seems to be the average weight for a fashionable carry-on nowadays. The medium suitcase weighs in at 8.9 lbs, and the large at 10.8 lbs. All of these are relatively lightweight for their size, giving you the ability to travel with more of what matters most to you.
Durability
The Caribbean Joe Luggage Castaway 4-Piece Spinner Suitcase Set has been designed to be durable and stand the test of time. No luggage manufacturer today can get away with putting to market a suitcase set that is not up to scratch, there is that much competition, sub-par manufacturing processes will ruin your business. That being said the Caribbean Joe Luggage Castaway Set is strong, durable, and works perfectly. The only issue that has been brought up is the fact that the zipper can sometimes stick, which does render a case useless, so be gentle with the zippers and do not put too much stress if unnecessary.
Style
The suitcase set by Caribbean Joe is suitable for its namesake, it will fit in perfectly, castaway, on an island in the middle of the Caribbean. Available in only two colors, chocolate, and orange, they are unique and will be easily visible on the luggage carousel. The set features a section of unique cross weave pattern, which adds a bit of sophistication and style to an otherwise subtle suitcase.
Size
The tote bag measures in at 16 x 13 x 8 inches, which is small, yet allows a lot of storage inside. The carry-on measures in at 21.5 x 14 x 9 inches, although at the limit of what is allowed on most major airlines. If you do pack it heavily and expand it, it may not fit the size requirements, so it is best to check before you arrive at the airport. The medium bag measures in at 25.5 x 16.2 x 11.7 inches, and the large at 29.5 x 18.2 x 12.8 inches. All are large and spacious bags, so you can bring everything you need on your travels with you.
