After using Trunki for some time, I have to say that trunki is the preferred choice for parents who want to choose travel luggage for their kids. Why is that so? Obviously this is because Trunki Luggage is fun and functional! Unlike other conventional kids luggage which looks rather dull and exactly identical to the ones that we adults will be lugging along, Tunki luggage is a joy to look at. In fact the sight of it excites my kids so much. Both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl are swooning over how beautiful and adorable the Trunkis are. In the end I got each of them one-Flosi Flamingo (for Jasmine) and Race Car (for Jordan). Of course they were on cloud nine when they received their very own Trunki. :p

Of course I didn't get them the Trunki Suitcases just because they are eye-candies right? There is more to them than meets the eye. Truth is I am really impressed with how functional these Trunki suitcases for kids are. First and foremost, I would like to commend on the materials used to build the suitcase. I find that the suitcases are really sturdy and durable, making it the ideal luggage for our little ones. In fact when I pressed against it and compared it with my (adult) luggage, I can't help but feel that my kids' Trunki is way more robust than mine. So it is safe to say the it can withstand quite a few knocks when being handled by my two little kids.

14 Reasons Why Trunki Suitcase Is The Best For Your Kids

1. Cabin Luggage Approved
If you are thinking about using Trunki as a cabin luggage, you will be happy to know that it is approved to be your hand luggage for your flights. You will have no problem to board with them.

2. Huge 18 Litre Capacity
Despite being hand luggage approved for flights, that does not mean that it is small at all. In fact, you will be surprised that these cute suitcases could offer so much in term of storage capacity and can really provide ample space for your kids' clothes, games and even teddy bears.

3. Lock It Up
With the provided key, you can actually lock your Trunki up with the catches. So you don't have to worry about the possessions of your little ones go missing.

4. Tough But Light
Though it is engineered with durable materials, the suitcase is actually very light. This allows our kids to handle their own luggage (with minimal supervision) effortlessly when we go travelling.

5. Fun With Wheels
One of main reasons why we opted for Trunki is because it comes with wheels. We are not talking about any ordinary wheels but the ones that are tough enough to withstand up to 50kg of sit-on weight. Hence our kids can ride on it all day long without worrying about damaging the wheels whatsoever.

6. Comfy Saddle
What amazes me is how this suitcase is built with the needs of our kids in mind. Each Trunki comes with comfortable saddle to let our little ones to sit on it and rest. If we are waiting at the airport and there is no more seats, fret not as they can sit on their Trunki. In fact they could also sit on their own luggage while waiting to check in at hotels. Talking about ergonomic design huh. :)

7. Perfect Grip With The Horns
By now I am sure you are aware that all Trunkis have their very own horns. Well they don't stick out of the suitcase for decorative purposes. They are there for our little ones to grip on them while enjoying their fun ride, being pulled around. Ha :D

8. Tow Strap With Key
To make it easier for our little ones to enjoy their Trunki ride, each of these suitcases comes with their very own tow strap. Hence parents can easily pull their kids around. By the way the tow strap is where your key is attached, making it even easier for you to lock your suitcases.

You can easily carry yours around

9. Carry Your Luggage
Besides towing, riding and pulling the luggage, Trunki has also been designed to be carried. With the carry handles, you can easily carry it and move around. Besides the carry handles, you can also secure both ends of the tow strap for you to sling your luggage over your shoulder. Great design if you ask me.

10. Safety Soft Rubber Trim
Another reason why I am so in love with the suitcase is because of its safety feature. The edges of the opening for the suitcase is lined with protective soft rubber trim so that our kids' fingers will not be injured in any way. So no more fingers being snapped. Speaking about child-proofing any potential hazards huh.

11. Secret Pocket
Yes there is a secret pocket for your little ones to keep their stash way from parents with prying eyes. Joking. Joking. It is another nifty compartment for our little ones to put their little treasures inside. My children actually love this internal pocket as they get to put their cure, adorable stuff in it.

You can put so much into your Trunki

12. Teddy Bear Seatbelts
"Buckle up teddy!" That's what my daughter told her soft teddy bear when she put him in. With the strap, rest assured that your beloved plushies will be safe and secure. They will be tucked in nicely and be happy when you reopen the suitcase to greet them. Ha :D

13. Customize With Stickers
Here is another fabulous reason to own a Trunki. Your kids can personalize the suitcase with the high-quality stickers. They can design their own luggage according to their own preferences and imagination. We even use the stickers to name the Trunkis. This is really a great way to let children have a sense of ownership over their luggae. Brilliant idea indeed!

14. 5 Years Guarantee
If you need total peace of mind, you will be encouraged to know that Trunki comes with 5 years of warranty. Yupe~we are not talking about 1 or 2 years limited warranty but a whopping 5 years. This goes to show how durable and high-quality Trunki is.
