I'm skeptical that the adoption of smart suitcases is accelerating as the article asserts. After initial introduction, they met with strong reception but when the US FAA imposed restrictions on lithium-ion batteries on flights, it seems to have dramatically slowed adoption of these devices. We need a source to back up the statement that the adoption rate of these cases continues to increase. Toddst1 (talk) 14:28, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
Her book Mother of Invention and this related article claim that wheeled suitcases existed in the marketplace before 1972. Mapsax (talk) 02:29, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
There certainly were suitcases a long time before the 1930s. No one mentions soft-sided suitcases, that were popular for non-airline travel, too, a metal frame in a canvas body. What are the types of suitcases? Not just materials, but sizes, like the pullman or weekender as a dimensional type. 141.239.177.153 (talk) 22:19, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
From https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2021/jun/24/mystery-of-wheelie-suitcase-how-gender-stereotypes-held-back-history-of-invention, based on the author's Att uppfinna världen: hur historiens största feltänk satte käppar i hjule, published in English as Mother of invention: how good ideas get ignored in an economy built for men, it appears the idea goes back at least to 1952.
