The new Nobl carry-on which arrived promptly has very sturdy hinges, etc.; the swivel rollers work well. However, the paint marred too easily; it has only been used for this one international trip to Italy. I also think the door to the laptop is rather flimsy. I checked it for the return flight, and the drink holder had popped open, unhinged, & bent. I thought that it was completely broken at first. I'm certain that this is something that other clients have experienced. It needs a clasp.
