So much to say...I have the carry on, the carry on plus, the duffel, the sling and the weekender. Aside from getting compliments on my luggage in the airport, my original duffel had a piece that fell off of the bag making the clasp not secure my folio. I didn't report it to Monos until a few weeks after the 2 year warranty (which made me fully prepared to be out of luck). To my surprise after I put a claim in with them, they sent a new bag and told me to keep the old one. I was so grateful. The new bag, just so you know, had a redesign where this issue probably would never happen again. They are an excellent company with high quality and stand by their products.

Just got the full Hybrid set (carry-on, Med, and Large), and unpacking it, my wife began to get upset as to how many times I kept saying "WOW", until she came for a closer look and began to say "WOW" herself. The bags are durable with solid handles, and great wheels. It came with tags, covers, and pouches for shoes or whatever. Just looking and touching this, you realize immediately that you've never seen quality luggage like this. I can't find a flaw in product or design. To cap things off, I needed to contact their customer service before receiving it, and can vouch for top-notch customer service. I think it's time I explore their other products, because I think I finally found a company that thinks everything through.

I have the hybrid carry on, hybrid carry on plus, and the Metro backpack. I like them all okay, and they look great, but they are HEAVY!!!! Even the vegan leather backpack. When fully packed even the carry on which is smaller than the normal carry on (not hybrid) is so freaking heavy to lift. Uber drivers constantly comment on how heavy it is for being so small. It really does start to get frustrating as I travel every other week for work. I have even started perusing other luggage to try to find something lighter that has the same great look even though I spent a fortune on all this luggage. I have them in the champagne color and just know they scratch super easily. Even though I've never checked the bag and only handled it myself. It scuffs crazy easily. I think if I could do it again I'd probably buy just the regular carry on and not the hybrid. Although like I said it looks fantastic and I love the clamping locks. It's just too heavy to lift for a frequent traveler. I am a petite woman but I am strong and I can lift a lot. It's been a bit of a disappointment with the luggage and the backpack.

Contact Monos. I had an issue with a bag...now it was a technical issue, but they may let you swap a bag for the nylon. The only reason I'm even suggesting this is because they have been amazing helping me be satisfied with their product. My daughter is petite and a gymnast so she's strong too. I tried to talk her into a lighter set, but she loves Monos like I do so we'll see. The Weekender is the heaviest I'm most concerned about because I haven't traveled with it yet, but it holds so much stuff! 😂

My husband and I own the Classic Carry On Plus. We took a 17-day tour of England & Wales and only needed to find a laundry once. We were able to carry them on the plane for the trip to Heathrow, but decided to check our luggage for the trip home. It did get a little scuffed, but Monos provided a cleaning pad to help get most of the marks out. I would probably go with the Classic Carry On for international travel due to tge smaller size. Overall, it's a great bag!

For a European river cruise last year, we purchased a Classic for my wife and a Classic Pro for me. When we initially packed and weighed our bags, we found that my Pro was overweight for the airline we were using. Solution? Repacked, with my wife’s (lighter weight) clothes in the Pro and mine in the Classic! In hindsight, I didn’t absolutely need the front pocket Pro model. p.s. Airline never checked dimensions or weight…

I own two. First is the "Old Penguin" carry on. I have had this for awhile (before it became Monos). It is still in great shape. It's scuffed. However, that is the only issue (and since I've been around the world with that bag...I'm not concerned). The inside is as if were brand new. The second is the Monos Hybrid Carry On Plus. The larger bag works perfectly. It's light and sturdy (as it has been beat up a bit both carried on and gate checked. I don't review luggage...but this is as good as advertised. Nice review.

I've been wondering if I really should have gone with the Plus, but picked the carry on size because I'll be using it around Europe much more than domestically. When the beginning of the video said they'd gotten away with the Plus all over Europe, I started kicking myself, but in the end, I think the carry on size was the way to go for me. I hope. LOL

Only had to check bag once and that was the last flight home YYZ-YQT. Trip was just under 4 weeks and I managed to pack enough to last that long. Also took an iPad which fit neatly into the front pocket. Case held up great apart from a few scratches and I put that down to having to check the bag on the last flight. Expensive but worth it.

I have the Carry On Pro and used it on a recent 2 week trip in Japan and it was amazing. The front pocket definitely is something I thought I'd use more for my iPad, but it also turned out to be a great pocket to store some extra medication, extra copies of travel documents, and was a secure spot to lock up my cash with a lock. Definitely can do a 2+ week stint on this luggage, and pairing it with a great backpack is the best combo for not having to wait at all through immigration and customs.

My secondary bag/backpack can easily house my in flight things like snacks, ear buds, laptop. My other question is colour and scuffing. When I had the threat of having to check it I was worried about the light beige colour I choose. Now, with the classic, I will be in more control of my bag. I am curious about Allue’s thoughts on the scuffing of the beige colour she took on you long travel journey. Would she choose it again?

My wife and I have identical, brand new Monos carry on bags. Both bags have the same problem of not being able to fully extend the handles when the bags are packed. Unless one is less than 5 feet tall, it will be a very uncomfortable trip through the airport. After a quick Google search, we see that many people have the same problem. I've reached out to Monos; no response. Maybe you should reconsider recommending this bag.

I've encountered that before and, in my case, it was typically when I packed too much. Not saying that's what you've done. When that's the case, you have to 'burp' the bag. You basically apply some pressure to the area between the poles on the back of the bag as if you're giving it CPR and that will do the trick.

Problem I am having is there is no return of emails with questions, no "live chat" on the website and I just spent $1500 on the hybrid trunk and carry on plus. No one was around to answer questions before I placed my order and I have seen horrible reviews on Instagram now. No customer service AT ALL! No help. That does not make me feel good about my purchase and if I return those and the other pieces I bought, they are going to charge me for shipping (and I read it's not a little). :( I read about the handle thing, but just thought it was a few peoples problems and not that common.

Great review...sort of. I wish you would have opened up the Hybrid and displayed it's packing capacity. From the Monos website, it appears that it doesn't have compression straps. What are your thoughts on this?

I have the Bigger Carryon by Monos. I traveled 18 days in Europe and checked twice on bargain airlines. Maybe I could have taken on after looking at others! I wish you had demo the hybrid. The reason is only hybrid I ever had, if you packed really full, i found it hard to line up the catch to close. Gave it away after 2 uses! Has there been an improvement? I use clear ezpack cubes so I can see what is inside and they squish down! I love the customer service of Monos. I am about to try out what looks like a copy of Monos by Quince at a much lower price for a 16 yr old granddaughter. Would love to hear your opinion!

Great video! Those packing cubes look like they are also Monos, but they look different from current Monos offerings. Which cubes are they? They look to fit perfectly in the carry on size.

I have carry on plus monos, 2 luggages as a matter of fact. I wont buy pro, i dont need the outside pocket and i think it reduces the inside space. If anything, but too late now, i would buy hybrids, especially for check-in luggages. But i wont change my 3 monos check-in luggages anytime soon.

What is the best "Expandable" Carry-On (looking for a carry-on that can expand, so if I'm on a euro train, I can add more items. I like the option to expand or not.) Looking for an expandable carry-on that can expand from 22"x14"x9". I love your Great Mono Video, by the way!

I’ve been doing my research on new carry-ons for the last 3 months now for my trip to Australia for two weeks in July. I def want to have something that holds a week worth of clothes since I’ll just be washing them at the hotel for the following week. I def would prefer more room since I’m a bigger guy, so do you think I should go with the classic series over the pro series? Your videos have been super helpful btw!

I ordered a Carry-on in Terracotta. The color was so beautiful, but its size was too small for my needs so I returned it and ordered a Carry-on Plus and Carry-on Pro Plus in Terracotta again. When I opened two boxes, I was stunned because they look so ugly. They were in dull brown color and I did not like it at all. I tried to keep at least one of them since this company charges $40 for us to return any orders, but I just could not stand it. I am not sure you are an ambassador of the Monos. If you are, could you please ask them what happened.

Super-helpful channel! How watertight are these? If I've got a laptop in there, should I be concerned if I'm pulling these through pouring rain? Also, I am traveling internationally for the first time and torn between regular and plus. The plan is long-term if not permanent nomad. Oof! Any thoughts are welcome!

Great comparison. Was the expandable out when you made it? I spend most of my life travelling with dozens of different Airlines. I went for the Pro expandable as the plus would cause too much stress re having to check it in but with the expandable pro I can check the Airline limits I’m traveling with and expand if ok. Perfect flexibility👍. Also I combine with the TUMI leather small flight bag which is exactly the size allowed by all Airlines for additional carry on (40 x 30 x 15cm). After 30 years as a constant traveller I have found this to be the perfect combination for trips up to a week.

Wow, this review solved my dilemma about Pro Plus or Classic size. I think the Classic Pro would be too small inside and not give me enough packing space, but I really want a front pocket in my luggage. The expandable Pro seems to be exactly what I need. Thanks again!

To bad the customer service is all but ignoring or nonexistent. I ordered two carry-on Pro bags a few weeks ago for my wife and I prior to a 3 week trip to Europe , and decided they weren’t the ones for us after they were delivered and inspecting them in person. After a week’s worth of daily attempts to reach customer service, by phone and email, and have had zero response. So much for a return policy or customer focus.
