FAQs

What material is the American Tourister Large Trolley made of?

The trolley is made of durable Polypropylene, a type of hardshell plastic.

How do I reset the TSA lock combination?

Locate the reset button (usually a pinhole). With the dials at '0-0-0', press and hold the reset button, set your desired combination, then release the button.

Is this trolley expandable?

Yes, the trolley features an expandable depth, allowing for increased capacity when needed.

What is the weight of the trolley?

The trolley weighs approximately 3.90 kg.

Can this trolley be used as carry-on luggage?

No, this is a large trolley designed for checked baggage. Its dimensions (78x49x31/34 cm) and capacity (98/111 L) exceed standard carry-on size limits.

How should I clean the trolley?

Wipe the exterior clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What are the dimensions and capacity of the trolley?

The dimensions are 78x49x31/34 cm, with a capacity of 98/111 Liters.

Troubleshooting

TSA lock is difficult to open or set.

Ensure the dials are fully aligned with the notch for each digit. If setting a new combination, ensure you are pressing the reset button firmly and release it completely after setting the new code. Try resetting to '0-0-0' and re-setting your desired code.

Spinner wheels are not rolling smoothly.

Check the wheels for any obstructions like threads, debris, or dirt. Clean the wheels and wheel housings with a dry cloth or a soft brush. Ensure the trolley is not overloaded, which can put excessive strain on the wheels.

Trolley exterior has scuff marks.

Minor scuffs can often be removed with a soft, damp cloth or a magic eraser. For deeper scratches, accept them as part of the journey; the hardshell's primary function is protection, not pristine aesthetics.

Zipper is difficult to close or open.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away. You can lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil or a wax-based lubricant. Ensure the expansion zipper is not overstrained.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight for its size, aiding in managing airline weight limits.
  • Durable hardshell construction protects contents.
  • TSA-approved lock offers security and convenience for travel to the US.
  • Four spinner wheels provide excellent maneuverability.
  • Expandable feature adds packing flexibility.

Cons

  • Large capacity may exceed carry-on requirements and international checked baggage limits.
  • Hardshell can be prone to scratching, despite its durability.
  • Fixed TSA lock means the combination is set and cannot be easily changed by the user after purchase (requires resetting procedure).
  • Polypropylene material, while durable, may not be as impact-resistant as some other hardshell materials in extreme conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Initial Setup (TSA Lock):

The fixed 3-digit TSA combination lock typically comes set to '0-0-0'. To set your personal combination:

  1. Locate the reset button (usually a small pinhole near the dials). You may need a pen or paperclip to press it.
  2. Ensure the dials are set to '0-0-0'.
  3. Press and hold the reset button, then turn the dials to your desired 3-digit combination.
  4. Release the reset button. Your new combination is now set. Remember to test it before packing.

Compatibility:

This large trolley is designed as checked baggage and is compatible with most airline checked baggage policies. However, due to its dimensions (78x49x31/34 cm) and large capacity (98/111 L), always verify specific airline weight and size restrictions before travel, as it may exceed limits for some carriers or fare types.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: To clean the exterior, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the polypropylene material.
  • Storage: Store the trolley in a cool, dry place. If storing for an extended period, consider placing a light cloth or paper inside to maintain its shape and absorb any residual moisture. Protect it from direct sunlight, which can fade the color over time.
