Luggage Quality Tests
Because your vacation matters, ensuring we not only improve but approve your luggage's survivability is paramount for us.
Yes! Our Luggage Are Tested, Inspected & Approved.
From the wheels to the handle, and every nifty feature in between, all our suitcases go through rigorous testing before you get them. Get a behind-the-scenes sneak peek here below at some of the many tests Bentley carries out to ensure your travels remain affordable and always hassle-free.
The Drop Test
Luggage could take a real toll when you're travelling the world, that's why it's important to ensure that their shells are super resilient and resistant against impacts. To do so, all models are repeatedly dropped 4 feet off the ground, for long hours. We then inspect them for any abnormal scratches, scuffs, or breakage.
The Trolley Lift Test
Twisting and swerving around luggage with the telescopic handle should be a smooth and responsive experience. To validate this standard, we pull up the luggage from the handle and release it back down approximately 5000 times. This test helps us to assess if the handle was installed correctly and determine if it is, in fact, apt to optimize maneuverability.
The Wheel Endurance Test
Even if you're carrying a larger load, the eight 360-degree spinner wheels always need to be whisper-quiet and butter-smooth – there's no exception. For that reason, we are required to place them on a bumpy conveyor belt so as to evaluate their pivotal and rotational movements as well as their endurance. If and only if they perform to our liking, we could then move on to the next test.
The Dynamic Loading Test
We tend to respect the airline's maximum luggage weight capacity when we pack, but what if we wish to store more for, say, a road trip, where weight isn't an issue? There's a test for that, too! Enter the Dynamic Loading Test. Here, we put different sets of extremely heavy weights inside each luggage, which we then inspect to see if they operate as intended and won't break, crack, or rip under denser conditions.
