Away wins strong reviews for durable, sleek luggage that packs efficiently and rolls smoothly, with many users praising years-long performance, thoughtful compression and laundry-bag interiors, and responsive lifetime warranty support. Reviews also flag drawbacks: shells scuff and scratch easily (especially light colors), handles can wobble, wheels or zippers occasionally fail, aluminum dents and feels heavy, and the removable battery is cumbersome under airline rules.

Sleek, light and reliable. Great customer service: a wheel locked and they immediately sent me a replacement with instructions on how to fix it myself.

Overall, I don’t think this suitcase is worth the high price tag. I have an Amazon Basics suitcase that is just as functional but much less money and I wouldn’t care if that just damaged. The Away suitcase design isn’t ideal. The mesh divider is hard to use.
Feedback
The suitcase is very easily scratched, especially for light colors. The mesh divider is very annoying to use.

Away has nice looking products, but their customer service is the worst! They randomly cancel orders and then won’t honor the discount they promoted at that time. The zipper on my bigger carry on broke within the first 9 months with minimal use.
Feedback
Improve your customer service and learn to actually stand behind your products and honor sales when you have them.

The giving movement Despite stating that Delievery takes 1 to 2 days… it’s been a month and nothing is delivered. I’m not surprised that commenting on IG posts are limited to old photos. Trying to hide that they will take your money and not send any products. Been a month already since I did the purchase and I had followed up with several emails yet didn’t get a refund or the products. Time to report to the authorities however I’m writing this here for people to know that the giving moment took the money and never sent anything.

I love my Away luggage (the expandable carry-on). I know that it will fit in the overhead bin, and the quality and all the details are great (including the laundry bag). I just wish it was a little less stiff and good expand further, but it's great to know that it has a lifetime warranty

My wheeler from here didn't last very long at all and the wheels were very difficult to use.

Overall, it is a quality product but the price is juuuust high enough to give pause and ask "is it really worth it"? My answer is 50/50. The away suitcases are sleek, they are functional and you would have to spend time shopping around to find an equivalent that isn't super cheap quality - so it is probably worth it at the end of the day.
Feedback
Mostly pricing to be honest. If these were 20% cheaper I would buy one in every size.

My husband and I purchased several pieces of luggage from the Away store in San Francisco, CA. The store associates were friendly and helpful. Our first purchase was The Medium in black and our second was the The Large Aluminum in silver.
Feedback
The Medium rolls extremely well on most services and is very lightweight. The aluminum case is prone to easy damage and with the added weight of the material we find once packed it becomes over the approved airline weight limit quickly. I love how it looks but wish it didn’t damage so easily.

Really love my pieces from Away. I have the bigger carry-on, and the everywhere bag. I love both but the everywhere bag is a must-have. I use it flights and car trips. I’ve had both for about 3 years and I travel a lot and both have held up really well and clean very easy. Only bummer is the battery which I pretty much removed and leave home since you have to take it out for each flight.
Feedback
More pet travel pieces and maybe tech travel accessories.

I had a great shopping experience with Away. Their travel options are well thought out, and well priced, in my opinion. The carry-on handles travel well, and can take a beating.
Feedback
I think the handle and wheels can be improved for durability and ease.

Durable and great products

Really like my carry on, but the compression part broke pretty early on, and the handle is now jammed. Customer support seems great and the lifetime warranty I think would cover both, but such an inconvenience to deal with it that I probably just never will honestly.
Feedback
Product durability could improve, at least on my model, but it’s a few years old now so things may have changed.

still wondering about the company culture (after the stories in the press)

These bags are so durable and the four wheels are really helpful for walking around the airport. Recently, my insert on my large carry-on bag broke, and their customer service was extremely quick to send me a new bag because they were out of the insert kits! All I had to do was return the old bag in the same box the new one came in. They were very easy to work with and responsive to DMs!

Love my Away carry on, makes a packing for a weekend that much easier.

Wish there was a front/back slip pocket to put items in when you're running around the airport.
