Works as an emergency carry-on!

I have previously owned a medium sized packing cube, but I recently purchased the larger version for an upcoming trip. I'm glad I did. My original suitcase was damaged during the flight, and I ended up purchasing a smaller one as a temporary replacement. Thankfully, I was able to use this packing cube as my carry-on item ( I was able to pack all of my clothes inside). The zippers are strong, and the stitching on the cube seems like it would hold up long term. I only wish the zippers didn't come together up top, since this can cause the packing cube to gradually open up over time. The dirty laundry compartment is also useful.
I have the medium and I absolutely STUFFED this bad boy to the point where it felt like if you looked at it wrong it would explode and what happened? It held it all and the zippers didn’t give an inch. Did it take two people to zip it up? Yeah it did and it’s impressive every time
I appreciate the quality of the packing cubes I received but am unhappy with the inconsistency of the colors! I purchased a small and medium packing cube in each of two colors: gray and sage. The two gray cubes are the same (although very different from the color seen online!) but the two sage cubes are different colors from each other. I will keep the gray cubes but return the sage cubes. I'm feeling frustrated that I need to return them; I will try to find a place to buy them again where I can see them in person to know that they match.
Amazing for travel. I currently have the shoes, small, and medium. I would recommend to buy in bunch to get discount. I recommend buying a set for each piece of luggage. The compression zip helps reduce volume. The dirty laundry goes on the back.
Picked up two mediums and a small in Eclipse, and honestly, these things blew me away. The quality is immediately obvious the second you hold one. The zippers are buttery smooth, and the pull tabs make opening it super easy. The little color accents are a nice touch; it shows they care about all the details. On my first trip out, I packed a whole weekend's clothes into one medium cube. The secondary compartment was super useful for dirty clothes as the trip went on. The price held me back for a while. But after actually using them, it feels obvious that you're paying for something that's genuinely well made. If you're on the fence, just get them.
