An ergonomically designed piece of wheeled luggage for being transported by a user across a floor surface is disclosed. The wheeled luggage includes a luggage body having at least a bottom surface, a back surface, and a top surface, the back surface intersecting both of the bottom and the top surfaces, respectively, at least two spaced and parallel wheels rotatably supported on the bottom surface of the body with a longitudinal axis extending through the wheels, the axis being parallel to the intersection of the back surface and the bottom surface of the body. The wheeled luggage also has a handle assembly mounted on the body, the handle assembly including an elongate handle grip for being grasped by the user when the wheeled luggage is rolled across the floor surface. The handle assembly has a first retracted position in which the handle grip is flush with the luggage body and a second extended position in which the handle grip extends for a selectively adjustable distance above the body and within which the handle grip, when grasped by the user, is positioned perpendicularly with respect to the axis of the wheels and substantially parallel to the floor surface. So constructed, the user may adopt a more natural position to pull such wheeled luggage, thereby increasing user comfort and reducing user fatigue. |
