Traveling is already a hassle, but adding a potentially overweight suitcase to the mix only makes things worse. If you’ve ever been in this situation, you already know that what follows is pretty embarrassing — having to take things out of your suitcase in front of everyone else in the check-in line or, worse yet, paying an overweight luggage fee.
Most people who either know they’re chronic overpackers or prefer staying cautious invest in a portable luggage scale. However, female-founded luggage brand Béis recently found a way to eliminate the need for one by building a weight-limited indicator into its 26-inch check-in suitcase — and it’s, hands-down, the best suitcase for overpackers.
Here’s the thing — travelers rarely know that their luggage is overweight until weighing it at the check-in counter. To tackle this problem in advance, Béis found a way to identify your suitcase’s weight as soon as you lift it at home.
The Béis 26-Inch Check-In Roller holds everything you need without exceeding the baggage weight limit thanks to its indicator.
Here’s how it works. When you lift your suitcase, the clear strip on the side of the handle will either remain clear or turn red. If it turns red, that indicates that your bag is overweight, and you need to take a few things out to lighten the load a bit and save yourself the airport embarrassment.
In addition to this useful and practical feature, the Béis 26-Inch Check-In Roller also has 2 inches of optional expansion, compression flaps and straps, tons of pockets and a TSA-approved combination lock.
For those long trips, it also comes with a built-in laundry bag to keep clean clothes separated from those you’ve already worn. Plus, it has an expandable hidden tag at the front that pulls out to attach to your carry-on, allowing you to pull both suitcases at once without strain.
Proving that this is the best suitcase for overpackers, TikTok user @theabbybible reviewed the best-selling Béis Check-In Roller and gave it a rave review.
“It’s worth it because I am not only a chronic overpacker that needs an efficient suitcase, [but] my old one that I was using that was the same size could not fit nearly as much stuff,” she said before adding that the brand thought “of everything” when creating this luggage piece.
