Monos Carry-On
Monos
The Monos Carry-On features a telescopic handle, plus lots of zippered pockets and compartments and an easy-to-use lock. It offers an ultra-strong polycarbonate hard shell exterior and a TSA-approved locking system. Monos boasts a 100-day trial period and lifetime warranty.
This carry-on is more compact than the other carry-on I own. It measures 22 inches by 14 inches by 9 inches. I tend to go on a lot of short weekend trips, and this size was great for me for my recent four-day vacation. I like that it’s smaller and lightweight, as that makes it easier to roll and lift into an overhead bin or the car.
Why we like the Monos carry-on:
- Monos Carry-Ons are made with aerospace-grade, water-resistant polycarbonate hard shells for enhanced durability.
- The carry-on fits in the overhead bin on most airlines and is easy to store in my car trunk for road trips.
- The 360-degree spinner wheels provide a smooth glide.
- It’s available in 13 colors.
Monos Carry-On Plus
Monos
The Monos Carry-On Plus offers all of the benefits of the standard carry-on but in a larger size. It measures 23 inches by 15 inches by 9.5 inches, giving you extra space to pack for longer trips. Even at its larger size, this suitcase still fits in the overhead bin on most major airlines. Though Monos does advise that it may need to be checked on smaller planes.
“I bought the larger carry on in black and it’s a sleek, stylish, good-looking suitcase. It rolls smoothly and spins easily, the handle is solid and you can pack quite a lot in there if you use it well,” a reviewer on the Monos website shares.
Choose from 13 carry-on color and print options.
Why we like the Monos Carry-On Plus:
- The Carry-On Plus fits more than the standard carry-on, making it better for longer trips.
- It’s made with a dent-resistant, impact-friendly polycarbonate shell.
- It can fit inside of Monos’ checked bags for easy storage.
Monos Carry-On Pro
Monos
Business travelers may prefer the Pro model of the Monos Carry-On, as it offers a padded pocket to protect computers and other gadgets. The pocket fits laptops up to 16 inches, and protects the laptop with the same aerospace-grade polycarbonate that is used for the rest of the suitcase.
The Monos Carry-On Pro measures 22 inches by 14 inches by 9 inches and weighs 7.8 pounds. It can hold enough for a two to five-day trip.
“I really liked the overall feel and design of my Carry-On Pro,” says a reviewer. “Smooth and glided around with ease. I love the outer pocket for convenience.”
Why we like the Monos Carry-On Pro:
- It keeps laptops safe with a dedicated pocket and strong materials.
- Like all Monos Carry-Ons, it includes a TSA-approved lock for extra security.
- It can be purchased in a bundle set with other Monos products for extra savings.
Monos Check-In Large
Monos
The Monos Check-In Large is the checked version of the Monos carry-on piece above. It comes in 10 colors and prints. Price varies by color. Monos’ smaller suitcases can nest inside it when you’re not traveling.
“The bag has the largest size in its category. Despite that, it feels light and looks classy. I am also impressed with its durability and the way it rolls,” a reviewer on Monos’ website shares.

Like the rest of the Monos Metro collection, it’s made with Monos’ vegan leather. I’m a big fan of Monos’ vegan leather products because they look beautiful and are super easy to clean. Plus, they offer the appearance and texture of leather while providing a cruelty-free alternative.

Tupperware and some of its subsidiaries filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, the once-iconic food container maker said in a statement late Tuesday.
The company has suffered from dwindling sales following a surprise surge during the COVID-19 pandemic, when legions of people stuck at home tried their hands at cooking, which increased demand for Tupperware’s colorful plastic containers with flexible airtight seals.
A post-pandemic rise in costs of raw materials and shipping, along with higher wages, also hurt Tupperware’s bottom line.
Last year, it warned of “substantial doubt” about its ability to keep operating in light of its poor financial position.
“Over the last several years, the Company’s financial position has been severely impacted by the challenging macroeconomic environment,” president and CEO Laurie Ann Goldman said in a statement announcing the bankruptcy filing.
“As a result, we explored numerous strategic options and determined this is the best path forward,” Goldman said.
The company said it would seek court approval for a sale process for the business to protect its brand and “further advance Tupperware’s transformation into a digital-first, technology-led company.”
The Orlando, Florida-based firm said it would also seek approval to continue operating during the bankruptcy proceedings and would continue to pay its employees and suppliers.
“We plan to continue serving our valued customers with the high-quality products they love and trust throughout this process,” Goldman said.
The firm’s shares were trading at $0.5099 Monday, well down from $2.55 in December last year.
Tupperware said it had implemented a strategic plan to modernize its operations and drive efficiencies to ignite growth following the appointment of a new management team last year.
“The Company has made significant progress and intends to continue this important transformation work.”
In its filing with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Tupperware listed assets of between $500 million and $1 billion and liabilities of between $1 billion and $10 billion.
The filing also said it had between 50,000 and 100,000 creditors.
Tupperware lost popularity with consumers in recent years and an initiative to gain distribution through big-box chain Target failed to reverse its fortunes.
The company’s roots date to 1946, when chemist Earl Tupper “had a spark of inspiration while creating molds at a plastics factory shortly after the Great Depression,” according to Tupperware’s website.
“If he could design an airtight seal for plastic storage containers, like those on a paint can, he could help war-weary families save money on costly food waste.”
Over time, Tupper’s containers became popular that many people referred to any plastic food container as Tupperware. And people even threw “Tupperware parties” in their homes to sell the containers to friends and neighbors.
