BR is lifetime repairs for free.

Wow...well that actually sounds worth it alone.

Anyone use an Ogio Layover? I have been using one and I'm curious about long term wear. So far it's been great.

Well it's $100 cheaper than the widely recommended BR bag so that's why I was interested. I'm looking at replacing my LW 22" but it seems like their quality has gone downhill in recent years. Sending it in to get repaired will probably cost $200 with shipping. BR is lifetime repairs for free.

you wont be disappointed with the domestic carry on. I will never go back. The only thing it's missing is the back and side pockets, i miss the back sometimes but the expanding part of the bag makes it worth it to me.

How much more can you fit in vs the LuggageWorks?

I can make my LW work for 8ish days but any more gets really tight. Was thinking about buying a 26", Part 135 and really airline so not too worried about being carry on legal.

without the side pockets a good amount. I use packing cubes and expand it to close, then push it back down to normal size.

Just looks like a business professional bag with some high quality features that are way overpriced. My.02

The lifetime free repairs, assuming they still do that, totally make it a fair price. No complaints about mine, used it today.

Guess what I got for my birthday today? Very excited to try out my new B&R Domestic starting a few months from now. First thing I notice is how light it is compared to my well worn Luggage Works roller board. Time to sell that one now that this fell in my lap.

I'm glad it was a present, I will say that. ($$$) Of course I'm on my second LW bag in 11 years, and most of that time I was not flying for the airlines. Free repairs for life should come in handy now.

Thanks. I think I'll be making a purchase soon.
