Frequently Asked Questions

What are the Baseline Essential 22-inch Spinner's dimensions?

The exterior measures 22 x 14 x 9 inches when compressed and 22 x 14 x 11.5 inches when expanded, including the wheels and handles. The case itself measures 20 x 14 x 7.875 inches.

How does the CX expansion system work on this carry-on?

The CX Smart Packing Technology expands the case to provide up to 30% more space, then compresses back toward its carry-on footprint. The supplied product specifications list capacity as 37 to 48 liters, or 2,240 to 2,940 cubic inches.

Does the exterior handle leave a flat packing surface?

Yes. The Outsider handle is mounted on the outside of the case, so the interior packing surface remains flat. Briggs & Riley presents this as a way to pack garments flat and reduce wrinkling.

What garment-packing feature is included?

The spinner includes a built-in tri-fold garment folder with a foam roll bar. The manufacturer says it is designed to hold one or two suits and help reduce wrinkling during travel.

What does the lifetime guarantee cover?

Briggs & Riley says its guarantee covers repairs to all functional aspects of the bag for life. It does not cover cosmetic wear, cleaning for odors or stains, or lost or stolen bags and contents. Airline damage can be repaired if you choose repair rather than pursuing a carrier claim.
