From Boing Boing: Zuca: rollaboard luggage with drawers doubles as a chair



Speaking of bags and luggage, Ben Hammersley swears by the Zuca Pro, an overhead-legal rollaboard bag that you can sit on, and that organizes its contents into drawers. It's been years since I've bothered with rollaboards (I hate gate-checking luggage), but this is pretty danged cool, and Ben is one of the few people I know who logs as much mileage as I do.


I imagine those drawers are seriously useful, especially if you pre-packed a bunch of them like travel cartridges ("beach," "business meeting," "in-room coffee stuff") and stacked them as the trip required.



• 41" Telescoping handle


• Aluminum alloy frame is light, super strong and rated to safely support 300 pounds


• The removable, hand washable, insert bag is made from premium water resistant 1680D ballistic nylon and coated with water resistant polyurethane


• 4" lightweight polyurethane wheels absorb shock and make for a seriously silent ride. And, because the wheels are recessed, the luggage meets FAA specifications for carry-on baggage


• A gear platform to carry additional loads


• Feet, made of nylon 6, go easy on scratchable surfaces


• Chrome plated, rust resistant screws



Zuca Pro (Thanks, Bill!)
