Thanks!

We kept our TravelPro spinners in the attic. When I got them down last spring, on two of them the hard rubber extension handle and the outside buckles that keep the suitcase from falling open had gotten sticky from the heat. Just two out of the four, but that was enough for me to find somewhere else to store them.
I assume this was because they were up in the attic over two summers prior to last spring due to Covid lockdown/ageing dog, and we were unable to spend those two summers elsewhere.
