L.L.Bean Expandable Hardside Spinner, 26"

Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: How much can this 26 inch expandable suitcase hold?

  A: It holds 73.4 L, and expands to 85.8 L when you need extra room. We designed it as a great medium checked-bag size for trips around 4 to 6 days, depending on how you pack.

• Q: How does the expansion feature work?

  A: The case expands by unzipping the expansion zipper for added packing space. Expansion adds 12.4 liters of capacity, and increases the depth from 11 in. to 13.5 in.

• Q: Can I use this as a carry-on?

  A: No, this size is not intended to be used as a carry-on. Its overall dimensions are larger than most airline carry-on limits, so we recommend checking your airline's specific size requirements before you fly.

• Q: What is the hardside shell made of?

  A: The shell is made from heat-molded polycarbonate. It is designed to be durable while keeping the overall weight manageable for travel.

• Q: What kind of organization does it have inside?

  A: It opens clamshell-style, unzipping around the perimeter so you can pack both sides easily. Inside, there are zippered mesh dividers on both sides to help keep items separated and easy to find.

• Q: Is it easy to roll through busy airports and terminals?

  A: Yes, the four-wheel spinner design makes it easy to maneuver in crowded spaces. The wheels are partially inset for added durability, and the telescoping handle adjusts to two heights, 31 in. and 41 in.
