Shoppers rush to buy travel essential that scans at the checkout for 20% off

SUMMER’S here and the weather is hot, hot, hot, even in the UK.

However, for those of us heading off on our holidays in the next month, we’ve found a brilliant deal on Amazon – a stylish carry-on suitcase currently has 20% off.

Savvy Amazon shoppers have been snapping it up and it’s no wonder; made from tough ABS polycarbonate, this hard-shell cabin case will save you from having to hang around at the carousel for hold luggage, so you can hit the beach that much quicker.

• Kono Lightweight Hard Shell Carry-On Suitcase, £49.99 £39.99 from Amazon – buy here

Amazon’s amazing offer is bound to attract Brits heading off on holiday – after all, money saved here can be added to the kitty once you’re away. But don’t delay, this 20% reduction won’t hang around for long.

The Kono carry-on comes in 12 fabulous colours and three of those are included in the offer: black, navy and nude.

It weighs just 2.5kg and features 360° spinner wheels, which means this suitcase is a dream to move, gliding in all directions easily – even sideways – as you saunter through the departure lounge.

The telescopic handle has three positions so you can adjust it to suit your height for the most comfortable handling. There’s also a static handle on the top and another on one side, which makes for easy grabbing from the overhead locker when you land.

The tough ABS shell is scratch-resistant and should stand up to any rough handling during the journey, keeping the contents protected.

And don’t worry about security – the integrated TSA lock takes care of that.

Inside, the layout is a compulsive organiser’s dream. The interior is fully lined and both the top and bottom sections of the case are ideal for packing.

Compression straps in the bottom keep your clothes securely in place, while a full-size zipped divider at the top keeps the contents there separate, making it an obvious storage zone for shoes, sandals and toiletries.

It has a total capacity of 41L, which with a bit of canny rolling and folding, should easily see you through up to a week away.

All in all, this is a cute but supremely practical carry-on, but you don’t just have to take our word for it as hundreds of happy Amazon customers agree with us.

One five-star reviewer said: “Travelling is much easier with this suitcase. It’s light, sturdy and it glides through the airport.”

Another fan enthused: “Great for not having to check in luggage at the airport. You can get a surprising amount of clothes in this little thing, ideal for a short break or business trip. It also looks very smart and not cheap and tacky like many others on the market.”

Another, meanwhile, described it as “sturdy and gorgeous”.

With airlines charging so much for transporting your bags, it’s essential you’re prepared from the start; you don’t want to be slapped with excess luggage charges when you get to the airport.

At 20” (51cm) this Kono carry-on will suit the size restrictions of many airlines in the UK (though Ryanair will charge for anything over 40cm and Easyjet for anything over 45cm).
