New Luggage

[candeeapril]

We are in need of some new luggage. I did some research and I think I narrowed it down, but since most of my travel is to WDW I figured I would ask my fellow disser's.

We are a family of five and usually only take 2 family vacations a year. I don't need super expensive luggage. However, I did by a new piece at a clearance store and it fell apart after our 2nd trip. What do you recommend that is durable, roomy and doesn't cost more than $100?

I bet you could find something decent, at a reasonable price at Kohls....think there are 15% off coupons floating around for there as well. After having a couple name brand pieces not last as long as they should, and seeing how luggage is handled, I am happy to get a few trips out of a bag if I got a good deal. If it lasts longer that is the bonus!!

We bought a 3pc luggage set from Costco, Kirkland brand. We've used them on a few trips now and they seem to be holding up very well. They have everything we need - inline skate wheels, nice telescoping handle, "bullistic" (i think that's what it's called) fabric which is durable. IIRC it comes w/a 10yr warranty. I don't know what Costco is selling now but their luggage seems to be good quality and I know we got this set for under $150. The pieces are sized small-lg and they all nest which is great for storage, and a plus in small hotel rooms.
