The media could not be loaded.
I had some trepidation as the price was much lower than the other ones I was seriously considering. However, the High Sierra arrived clearly well constructed, strong and the separate container at bottom keeps my cloths tightly packed and unwrinkled. The tie down straps in the bottom section are sweet. If I don't want to pack both compartments separately I just unzip the divider and have one large expanse of space.
The one "gotcha" is that the video with the guy with the red duffel bag claims there are TWO end compartments -- one on each end -- but there is only ONE, and it is on the end with the retractible handle. Maybe the newer models were modified to allow the bag to better stand on end which some complained about, but to me standing on end is not something true duffel bags do well. Regardless, this one does a better job at this than my old one did.
I especially like the strong material constructuon and the sturdy telescoping handle which gladly comes out much farther than the video shows. It wheels itself along very nicely and with good stability.
I couldn't be happier with the High Sierra except maybe for that second external compartment I was expecting, but the one external compartment is much larger than expected and will suit my needs.
Good job High Sierra!
