The. Best. Zippers.

I have several packing cubes (small, large, and shoe pouches) and can’t recommend these highly enough! Roomy, well thought out design, tough exterior, and the best zippers going. Easy pull open tabs (possible because of the zipper design) that makes getting into them easy and quick. I use them no matter how long a trip I am going on, and usually live out of them once I arrive. As usual, an excellent, thoughtfully designed product.
These cubes are much bigger than I expected. The "medium" should really be called a large, it fits a lot of clothing in it. The materials are really soft and feel good, but they have no rigidity so they can be a little 'floppy'. Definitely not water proof or even resistant, but I wasn't buying them for that anyway.
The main thing is the overall capacity here is extremely large, and there is a separate compartment on the back for you to store dirty clothes in.
Really improved packing for travel. Build is high quality. Fabric is really lightweight but seems really strong. The easy open tabs are almost addictive in their satisfaction
I love this thing (especially the dirty laundry pocket) - currently have the medium size packing cube. The only downside is that the zippers will start to open up if you’re trying to really stuff some clothing in there (had this happen in my last trip when I took the cube out and the zippers started opening up and a bunch of my clothes started falling out). I would have loved to see a better securing mechanism for this.
I got this for an upcoming trip, and while the compression is nice and helps, it can be hard to squish it down enough, so having compression straps might work better. But overall, its well made, and the compression does help.
