So far, the Best Option for Business Travelers
I have scoured Amazon, and even broadened my search to the entire internet in search of an underseat SPINNER case that not only fits clothes for travel, but a compartment big enough to secure a work-sized laptop (for me, 15.6). Even the most expensive underseat carryons allow only up to 14” maximum. The two I finally found were this one and one called Light Flight. These are my thoughts on the Lekebobor Rolling Laptop Bag:The quality of the case is above average. There is some misaligned placement of the outer material, for example. The outer main zipped compartment has a split design of two panels that protrude somewhat but when pressing down on the cover to see how flat I could make the front, it felt like cardboard was used to create the pop-out design. This is unnecessary since there is no other purpose for the protrusion (no additional space is gained).About that compartment in the front of this case…there are two zippers to the single compartment, opening right or left. The two to allow for a luggage lock on the conjoined zippers. The problem with the zippers is that it stops short of being able to zip both sides all the way to the bottom of the front cover. This creates a tighter opening in which you cannot fully open for full access to the front. I have small hands and it was still very noticeable only having a 30 degree opening.Once I got past the limited opening, I found this compartment is very roomy compared to my standard soft-sided carryon’s front compartment (I expected this to be the half-sized alternative to the bigger carryon). There are two pockets here. One fits any 4” item, but no closure to keep it in place. The other pocket has a flap with velcro to secure any items placed there. But in between these two pockets, there are credit card slots, useless, unless you plant to keep your credit cards in this case. If not, then you cannot take advantage of this section, since they only fit credit cards. Add to that, three pen/pencil holders also included but of no use to me.Onto the main compartment - you can fully unzip and open like a book to access the main big compartment. On the front wall (that consists of the backside of the front compartment), there is a horizontal full length zip pocket approximately 5-6” deep. Not sure what to put in there. Beneath that is another full length pocket for “wet storage” also of similar depth, and consists of a clear vinyl covering so you can see its contents. The issue with this pocket is that we are limited to one quart-sized bag of liquids. Since this pocket is elongated, you’ll never get your liquids in this bag without taking them out of the quart-sized bag required. I would have rather had one full sized pocket on this part of the luggage, so I could decide myself what would be stored here.Then comes the included laptop sleeve, which is a full padded pocket (with a secure velcro strap to lock it in) for my 15.6” laptop. It also has a full length pocket outside of the laptop compartment. It’s fully open, with no option to velcro down anything inserted there. Even a zip compartment would have been better than the fully open extra pocket. Once the laptop is placed in the sleeve, and you’re ready to attach the sleeve to the chassis of the luggage, there is an awkward bending of the plastic clips on each side. They want to stick out, but that interferes with closing up the main compartment. You have to wiggle them down so that they get underneath the padded pocket, which also results in the laptop being sunk into the main compartment a bit. So, now that main compartment just got a little smaller.The main compartment is just like my regular carry-on, in that you can feel the rolling handle through the material on the bottom, creating bumps. That wasn’t an issue for me. The compartment seems to be able to hold enough for 2-3 days worth of clothing, toiletries, the laptop charger and cords (which should have gone in the laptop compartment area, but no place to put them there). There is also one zippered interior pocket that could store a wallet or other item you want tucked away. I packed the main compartment with as many clothes as I thought possible for several days of travel, and I don’t see an issue there. However, there is a caveat here and that is how full you pack this thing in order to not interfere with placing it underneath the seat in front of you. If you pack it too full, it is getting maxed out on the under seat height on most planes, so you need that room in the main compartment to absorb anything big you have placed in the outer compartment, and it's two compartments on the backside. If you can keep your height at 8”, there’s a good chance you won’t need to place it in the upper bins, or God forbid, check your luggage!To keep the width of this suitcase narrow enough to fit under seat measurements, there’s a good chance you’ll need to remove the wheels. By width, I am referring to the case laid down on its back so that the top and bottom measurements become the width calculations for underseat purposes. You can shave off about 3” of width by removing the wheels, taking it down to about 12” total. This should then fit the width of some of the smaller under seats. So, after packing this thing and rolling it around my house for a while, I then started taking off the wheels. I imagined I was at the airport, right before my group was called to board…Picture that. To take off the wheels, you must lay the luggage first on its back. Push in the button and pull the wheel out. Easy enough, but gross. The wheels pick up everything on the ground, so remember that as you are grabbing the wheels to remove them. After taking off two, flip the case over on its’ front and take off the opposite two wheels. OK. Now what? I have filled the suitcase very judiciously to fit under the seat. Where am I going to put the wheels? I am still working through that one. Perhaps a jacket with four pockets, since a jacket isn’t a personal item. Neither is a pillow, so maybe I can find one and shove all four wheels in it? And remember how funky these wheels are now at this point. Still, it is an excellent idea, and was very smart of the vendor to make them removable. I am simply at a loss right now of where to store them so that I can board the plane and plant this case under the seat in front of me. Once I deboard, I want to snap them back in. They do snap in just okay. You have to really push them in to the point you hear them click in (this might get better with regular use). Just remember to slather yourself with plenty of hand sanitizer and run for the bathroom when you board and when you land to really get your hands disease-free! Oh, and how does it roll? Quite smoothly, and I did not notice any different pulling action than my regular carryon. I tend to push my luggage beside or in front of me with the face facing me anyway, so it worked fine for me.I am attempting to cover all the downsides of this case, as I myself rely on reviews to extract the bad or deficient areas of a product. This doesn’t cover longevity yet, as my trip is in another few weeks, but I don’t see any fatal flaws with durability…yet. This case met the dimensions needed because I wanted to grab my bag and leave the plane faster, but did not want to suffer again with a backpack (with a 15.6” laptop and all components) at the airport for 2 hours layover time. My other carryon was more roomier than I needed for short trips, and this appears to be exactly what I was looking for.Once real-world use occurs, I will post any additional afterthoughts and findings with this luggage. For now, I am content and excited to give it a go.

It moves easily, it is very quiet
The media could not be loaded. The only thing I personally do not particularly like is that it wants to wobble when on all 4 wheelsThe handle feels flimsy

A convenient sturdy bag
This is a pretty sturdy bag. It's a good mix between being a decent size but not too large to be inconvenient. It's great for weekend trips or bringing the gear you need to work for the day to and from. The wheel design is really clever as well they clip on with a little button making them easy to take on and off when needed

great design, but needs a separate zipped compartment for laptop
I really liked the design. Unlike most all the other rolling laptop bags I looked at, the carrying handle is actually centered at the top, making it easier to balance the load. And the wheels being removable is a big plus. But, I ended up sending it back because there was no separate zipped compartment for laptop and gear (cords, mice, etc.) There's a removable padded pouch which fits my laptop perfectly, but no place to put the accessories except in the main compartment. Had there been a separate zipped space, I would have kept it. (I really can't rate durability or it's use for traveling as I never used it, but they seemed like they'd be good. And I had to give them a rating.)

Wanted To Love It: More Cons Than Pros
The media could not be loaded. Pros: Bag size, organizational compartments, ease of use of bag. Included bag lock.Cons: no packing cubes (it was advertised), the handle isn’t very sturdy, it gives and slight twist as you walk. Wheels-they are smooth but the direction of the wheels have a preference one-way. This is odd because they’re 360 degree spinning wheels. In order to not have the unit move away from you or turn in front of you as you’re walking, you can only roll it effectively one way. The backside of the bag must be towards the way you’re going and the front of the bag must face behind you. This is really hard to describe. Ultimately, using this and it working will require you to have space. You cannot walk with it longways alongside you; it will trip you or move away and toward your side if you do (see video).I hope I can make it work, it’s so finicky.
