There is a particular child for whom pink is not a preference - it is a requirement. Trixie is Trunki's answer for that child. Hot magenta body, lime green trim, purple horns curving up from the back, lilac wheels: Trixie does not do subtlety, and neither do the children who choose her. For parents, the value of a suitcase this distinctive is that it is never hard to spot on a baggage carousel or in a hotel lobby.
Everything the Trunki Glide does, in a colour that announces itself
The Trunki Glide Trixie is carry-on luggage first. The 18 litre clamshell at 46 x 20.5 x 31cm fits within most airline overhead and underseat limits, and the smooth glide castor wheels handle airports, hotel lobbies and campsite paths without the straight-line friction of older ride-on designs. Inside: elastic X-straps to secure clothes on the lid, a mesh pocket with a safety strap for a favourite toy, dual side dial locks, and a tow and carry strap for the moments when little legs have done enough.
The maximum ride-on weight is 50kg. The suitcase itself weighs 1.7kg unloaded, light enough for a three-year-old to wheel. The sticker pack included with every Trunki Glide gives kids additional tools to personalise - though Trixie's magenta and lime colour combination leaves most children little reason to customise further.

About Trunki
Trunki was founded in 2006 by British designer Rob Law - famously turned down by Dragon's Den investors, and subsequently bought by millions of parents worldwide. The brand's idea was straightforward: a suitcase a child would take ownership of is more useful than one a parent has to manage. The five-year guarantee on every Trunki Glide backs that with a real commitment. Explore the full kids luggage range at Peekaboo Baby.

Trixie is the right call for kids who want bold magenta without the unicorn detailing.
The Trunki Glide is suitable from 3 years. The maximum ride-on weight is 50kg, which means most kids will use it well into primary school. The 18 litre capacity handles a week of toddler clothes or a solid supply of holiday snacks and colouring books.

Yes - Trixie is the go-to option for the child who wants strong pink character presence without the unicorn/pony theme. The magenta and lime green palette is bold and distinctive. If the unicorn detail matters, Una is the right pick. If it is the pink that matters, Trixie delivers that.
Wipe the hard plastic exterior with soap and water or antibacterial wipes. The interior fabric can be wiped with a damp cloth - do not submerge or machine wash. The vibrant magenta colour holds well against surface marks.
