To know if a suitcase is 20kg, use a luggage scale, which is affordable and portable. Simply attach the scale to the suitcase handle and lift. The digital display will show the weight. Alternatively, you can use a regular bathroom scale: weigh yourself alone, then weigh yourself holding the suitcase, and subtract the first weight from the second. This will give you an accurate measurement.**
