TPRC Sierra Madre Duffel Bag, Black, 21" Rolling

Very nice bag and as described. appears to be of good durability for "part time" use. Not sure it would hold up well for the full time, constantly loading and unloading worker/traveler. As an older couple I found the size larger than I expected, probably, in hind site, would have ordered the next smaller size for the 2 of us on weekend trips. Otherwise, great purchase.

This is the second time I've purchased one of these bags. The first time I got two of them and they have lasted for several trips. My husband and I use the bottom section for our scuba/diving gear and the top for clothes and everything else. Very convenient and you can haul a lot of stuff! Granted, it's not the sturdiest bag if you need it to last for regular/frequent travel but it's great for once or twice a year vacation. The bag I replaced cracked along the undercarriage where the wheels attach. I was able to duct tape it and it is still functional, but I've had it for a few years so I figured I might as well get a new one because it's not that expensive. It's about time to retire my husband's first duffel because of the wheels, too, and I'll definitely get him another one of these!

I put this bag through it's paces last roller derby season. The size is perfect for skates, helmet and derby kit. It's got rolly-wheels so it's easy on my back. The price is right, but you get what you pay for. It's not made for heavy duty abuse, but it can work just fine if you're easy on your equipment. I am generally a klutz and not gentle with my stuff, so once I stepped on the retractable handle, bent it and made that janky. A buddie's pup made a chew toy out of the zipper and now the zipper is busted. I left it on the porch and rain got into the wheels so now they're gummed up. I rolled it on a ramp that had a carpet, and the friction of the fabric rubbing on the carpet melted little "cigarette burns" into the bottom. Is it the bag's fault that I've destroyed it? Hardly. But it's worth mentioning in case durability is on your list of needs.

Nice quality. Easy rolls. Alot of storage. Durable.

• Product: good for few years but doesn’t last long. • Quality: very very poor! • Cost: pricey. • Durability: very poor. • Weight: heavy. • Wheel Quality: very poor and will break easily. I will not recommend! Need refund. It’s garbage.

Solid bag! I prefer these soft sided duffel style bags for some reason. It survived two weeks in Italy with numerous flights and changes of planes, and 5 or 6 train journeys unscathed. Only wear is on end where it dragged a bit when rolling, which could be my fault or overfilling it. I thought it was undersized until I discovered the bottom compartment which held a ton of stuff. My bag weighed in at the airport at 35 pounds. No complaints.

I ended up ordering the "used, like new" option of this because I seldom have need to pack heavily. I was visiting family over Christmas and didn't expect to receive so many gifts, so I wanted something inexpensive, as it is unlikely I would have reason to use it again. I really didn't care if it fell apart on the trip, so I wasn't disappointed. I was actually pretty dazzled and impressed when it arrived. It was not the color I expected, but the same dimensions and design as listed. It had the tags still attached and looked brand new. It's a lot of bag for the money! I really like that it has 2 horizontal compartments that open independently of each other. The downside that I suspected immediately is that it does not stand steadily when upright to use the handle, but if you anticipate that I was highly impressed at how well it pushed or rolled. It was an ease to maneuver! I was actually able to stand behind it and push it like a cart, through a very large international airport. I was ready to give it a raving 5 star review, until... The exterior has 3 zippered outer pockets. Roomy enough. Once I finally arrived home at 2 am I was fumbling with my keys and stepped on and nearly tripped on something rolling on the ground. Once I got in and got the lights on, I noticed it was my Tarte Cheek plumper. I had left a trail of my cosmetics all the way from the trunk of my car! It was in the side pocket closest to the wheels and that pocket had ripped open, and the contents had been working their way out. I would not recommend putting anything of value in that pocket. Additionally, TSA made me remove and discard my pepper spray at the check in counter, and that front pocket was difficult to maneuver with the bag in an upright position. I am thrilled with the bag at the lower price option, but had I received it at full price, I would have likely been sour about the malfunction on first use. Ironically, I had been looking for a linen storage solution - and this will serve beautifully for that purpose! It's certainly big enough, and the design will separate towels from bedding for easy access.

Excellent product. Totally different than others in its price point- nice thick fabric, sturdy zippers, and plenty of storage. This has the quality of a $100 bag or more.
