TPRC Sierra Madre II Upright Rolling Duffel Bag, Black/Gray, 36-Inch

I never feel compelled to write reviews, this is actually my first. This duffel is incredible! We call it the clown car because the amount of STUFF you can fit in all the compartments is astonishing. My 9 year old was able to roll it unassisted - packed to its gills. Made extremely well, don’t bother looking at other options. This is a winner!!

Purchased for my son's 5 week trip to Israel. It was the perfect design and a friend of his also got one for same trip (his also is coming apart) We liked that it has wheels, many great compartments, including a zip on the bottom for shoes, etc. However on the first flight out the wheel was not working and when he landed my son said it was already falling apart. This is after only being on underneath the plane.After taking it around Israel from hotel to hotel and then back to Colorado there's a huge hole in the bottom and the wheels are totally broken and one of the plastic areas on the side is broken off. Sadly I can't even return it now so will be throwing it out. I should have gone with a name brand like REI or North Face. Many kids on the trip had no issues as they had better bags. I am not sure if this bag is good for a there and back trip and not taking it around somewhere- however the fact is broke on the way there says to me maybe not- but for what he used it for, not good at all.

I love the size of this duffel! I deploy for Emergency Management and this is absolutely perfect moving into hurricane season.

The duffel bag is nice but I couldn’t use one of the side pockets because the zipper handle was broken and I had to use it because I was leaving for the airport the next day.

Perfect for the kids. Plenty of room, has a shoe pocket, they use these weekly.

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.

We purchased this TPRC Sierra Madre II last year to use as our primary duffle on a missions trip to DC. We had to bring toiletries, clothing, bedding, and towels. Lots of compartments to separate your stuff. Easy to carry, easier to roll. Our teens then used them for a week of camp, same deal, toiletries, clothing, bedding, and towels. It just really is a workhorse that holds a lot and has great value. Definitely recommend.

Jus got it now packing and see this bag has a hole
