Samsonite Pivot Spinner
About The Pivot Collection
The Pivot collection from Samsonite is one of their latest masterpieces that is both super-light and also on the lower end of the price scale.
It comes with more than enough features to suit most people, but won’t break the bank. And that’s great news if you want a quality suitcase, like Samsonite is renowned for.
But, does it have enough features to allow you to pack what you want, carry it with comfort and also last you for years to come?
Let’s jump into the details and find out what the Samsonite Pivot is made of…
Strong, lightweight 100% polycarbonate material takes on travel without breaking a sweat.
- Kick scratches to the curb with a stylish twill texture that protects against scuffs.
- Slide, glider, push, and pull with spinner wheels that travel at the speed of you.
- Roomy shell design gives you ample packing space without the need to smoosh or stuff.
- TSA-approved locks let the good guys in while keeping the bad guys out.
- 1.5″ expansion.

One of the reasons Samsonite luggage is always pricier than other brands is because they always use the best materials.
The Pivot is no exception – its shell is made of pure polycarbonate, one of the best materials for hardside luggage.
It is very durable and strong, but also incredibly lightweight at the same time, and those are the two most important features of any suitcase.
You want it to be strong so that you can use it for years, and you need it to be really light so that you can pack more inside it.
There is one thing you should now about polycarbonate – it scuffs easily.
So, if your suitcase get scratched on the first trip, don’t panic – it’s completely normal. It’s not really aesthetically pleasing, but it doesn’t impact the durability of the shell in any way.
And let’s face it, after the first few scratches, you won’t even notice anymore anyway :>
There are a few things that manufacturers can do, in terms of the design of the shell, to make the scuffs less visible.
If you take a look at the photo on the right, you can see that the shell of the Pivot is not a solid color, nor is it completely smooth.
And, because of this textured pattern, your Pivot will look as good as new for a longer time to come. In fact, I have a Delsey that is very similar to this and even though it has been through the wringer over and over (ie. baggage handlers) it still looks great.
