I am the above avergae size diver and my wife is smaller than average (the 2 do not average out to fit all the gear and weigh in too heavy for airplanes)

I use the bag to transport gear to the resorts, but too big for a boat, it is tough, BUT the first use the plane crew busted part of the zipper (still using it tough).

Poor choice of materials and quality of construction. Pockets are largely useless when used as a checked luggage. VERY tight zippers - closing a packed bag is a challenge in and off itself. Very heavy. No direct customer service in the US to deal with defects.

    Comments about Akona Roller Backpack with Wheels (AKB144):

    The backpack allows us to travel with all of our scuba gear and add in clothes as well.
    Another good use is to transport our backpacking equipment easily. The extra storage spaces allow us access to needed items quickly.

          Traveling down to Belize from GP Ab I never had an issue with any of the big airlines even tho I was on a smaller plane Dash 8 no problem at checking in at all. It fits all my gear plus my clothing and I'm not a small boy at 6ft4in.

          Not Well Made for Regular Use

          from Santa Barbara, California

          About Me Advanced

          Pros

          • Drains Easily

          • Lots Of Pockets

          Cons

          Best Uses

          • SCUBA Gear

          Comments about Akona Roller Backpack with Wheels (AKB144):

          I bought two of these and have had them for 4-6 years. After a couple of years the wheels and telescoping handle rusted out. The materials where the zippers are attached will start to fray and eventually tear. Now, I only use the second one carry my equipment when I travel overseas. I try not to expose it to salt water directly, as I expect more rusting. I would only buy this product to carry dive gear overseas, when it doesn't have to be exposed directly to salt water.

            Comments about Akona Roller Backpack with Wheels (AKB144):

            This bag was large enough to fit my and my husband's dive gear. (Two of everything except the regulator.) We are estimating it at about 55 pounds right now - we'll see for sure when we get to the airport next month. The bag being over the airline weight might be the only problem - but that is an airline issue, not a bag issue.
