Title: Clear top totes 3 ball
Post by: Centers on November 21, 2007, 01:47:57 AM
I would strongly advise people NOT to buy these!  These are cheap and wheels break off really easily.  I had one and wheels broke within 2 weeks and my brother ordered one for a lady, came in broke!

I have the 3 ball from Vise, took it to Reno, and the way luggage gets thrown around (trust me, I have a friend that works as a ramp rat for and airline), the bag is going strong, with no problems. You must have got a bad one !

It must be the Hammer/Ebonite bags.  I don't know anybody that has had a problem with a Vise clear top bag.

The wheels on my Ebonite tote broke last night. The bag was purchased in late October. I called Ebonite about a replacement bag and was informed that I need to ship the bag to them for evaluation.

Anyone with the Vise 3 ball roller bag....how well do they protect the balls for airline travel? Does the clear top have enough padding to keep the balls from getting nicked up?

i have both a vise clear top and a storm tournament 3 ball tote cleartop.  i personally like the storm better mostly because of the shoe pouch and the other little pouch which are both button and velcro attachable.

Have the Storm 3 ball for about 3 months and 30 round trips to and from the lanes, so far so good.

KR has one coming too.

My Vise 3-ball tote has been through everything.  Its bulletproof.

I have the Vise and Storm as well.  I like the storm because it has the shoe/accessories pouch, but the material is not as good..  Also the shoe pouch drags on the ground a little bit..  Like them both though

I have the Vise version.  Very well constructed to me.  Well worth the money.  I have flown with them, numerous truck trips.  No breakage at all.  I don't take very good care of my shoes and bags, the Vise triple totes are great!!
