I bought small and medium packing cubes a couple of months ago. I like its texture, and I find these packing cubes durable. I can even use these as my pillows whenever I go camping. It helps a lot in organizing my stuff for travel. Great product!
These are the best packing cubes on the market. They are also some of the most expensive. But at least in this case you’re getting something very good for your money. I would like to see them include a mesh strip or something like that to allow viewing of items without opening the bags. But otherwise these are exactly what you want in a packing cube.
Good design, works very well. I like the sizes, fits into multiple bags and small carry on bags. zippers work well, I like the dirty clothes extra pocket.
My packing cubes make everything so easy to find and pack. Helps to shrink items. So much so my husband kept on using my cubes had to get some for him.
I bought this packing cubes 3 month ago, I considered them to be a little bit expensive but the features and quality seemed good so I gave them a chance. Pffffffff, what a fool I was, the value is incredible. I travel for work a lot, and since I have them my packing experience has been a lot easier. I love the dirty clothes compartment, the easy open tabs are so satisfying and the compressión zippers are a life saver, i havent had a chance to try the self healing capabilities but the material seems really premium and durable. This is now my go to gift for friend and family that like to travel, they all love them. I only wish they were available in other countries like México, without the need to pay an expensive shippment.
I bought 2 Medium, 2 small and 1 shoe pouch and they are great, in carry on luggage with 4 wheels, I can only put 1 Medium and 1 small because I still need to put my shoes and toiletries. These are truly great concepts but I wish the extra zipper for dirty cloth can open wider so we can put the dirty one nicely ( otherwise it will take so much space, also unfortunately it’s a bit pricey compare to many other packing cubes.
I purchased these a year ago and liked them so much that I purchased additional cubes for my wife and daughter. These are super light weight and have features most other packing cubes do not, such as a separate compartment on the reverse side for dirty clothes. In my opinion, if you normally use packing cubes, these are the best ones your money can buy. They are not cheap but worth every dollar you spend. Highly recommend......*****!
Quality materials with a slippery fabric designed for ease of slipping in and out of tight spaces but a little harder to grip as a result. They do look very nice, for what that's worth. I did have one minor seam tear when trying to squeeze some things in almost immediately (which hasn't impacted functionality yet), but I will take that up with Peak Design and they seem like they would do the right thing.
The second pocket for dirty items is great. My only complaint is the material, while seemingly durable is very light/unstructured making them a bit harder to initially organize that my more robust Eagle Creek (non-compression) set, and they do get a bit rounded when completely stuffed to capacity so they tend to be taller in the middle than the edges. If I have space to spare and I'm packing top down in a suitcase, I might use those. But this is kind of unavoidable without using a more structured design that would add weight and decrease compressibility. Overall, 9/10 for the intended use case of really squeezing every ounce out of available space. I traveled for 11 days in far north Scandinavia out of a carry-on using these, snow boots and layers and all.
