Packing Cubes for Travel 5 Set - Compression Luggage Organizer Bags - Versatile Travel Organizer for Women and Men - Optimized Packing Bags - Travel Essentials (Pure Black)

I love this set! The cubes are sturdy, lightweight, and make packing so much more organized. The zippers glide smoothly, and the mesh tops make it easy to see what’s inside without opening everything. I used them for a recent trip, and it kept my clothes neatly separated—no more digging through my suitcase. The laundry bag is a nice bonus too. Great value for the price and definitely makes traveling less stressful!

Normally I am pretty quick with reviews. I either like the product or I don't. I have now had the Shacke Pak for a little over two weeks and have really started to put them through their paces. A little about me. I travel somewhere around 100,000 miles per year. That's over 100 flights, a ton of car rentals, in and out of hotels. I wear luggage out! A computer bag typically lasts me 6 to 9 months. Even really expensive carry-on suitcases and packing cubes wear out after two years. I have been using another very well respected and recognized name (Eagle Creek) for the past 4 years, but they are now reaching the end of their life. So, I started looking for a replacement. I naturally went right for the Eagle Creek, but, saw some reviews on the Shacke Pak and felt like I wanted to give them a try. Because I have had so much experience with travel items, I can tell within a week how a bag or travel item is going to do. My new Shacke Pak……. I have a solid feeling that it is going to be with me a long time! This past week, I took the three smallest cubes with me on a four day trip to the Midwest. I went carry-on, so they were stuffed to limits. I have to say..... they stuff well! Having use packing folders for the past few years, I was not expecting them to hold as much or condense as much as what I could get into my Eagle Creek packing folder. I also was convinced that I would not like the cube as much as the folding pack. I was wrong. They held just as much and they held everything well. The dimensions of each packing cube are just about perfect. There are four cubes in the pack, small, medium, large and extra-large. My carry-on is on the smaller size, so I skipped using the extra-large. In the large, I put in two dress pants, three dress shirts, and a polo. I saved the medium for my laundry as I used clothes (each night in a new hotel means I had to pack laundry into the same bag and I did not want my dirty clothes touching clean clothes). In the small, I put 4 pairs of socks, a t-shirt, four pair of underwear and pair of shorts and a work-out shirt. All fit nice. I tossed the packing cubes in my bag and still had room for my suit coat to lay across the top and my winter jacket shoved in too. All fit! Best part...... wrinkles were minimal. Zippers and stitching are top quality. The mesh 'window' is nice. I like that the 'window' is small and a majority of the bag is the stronger and heavy-duty material. That helps it hold it's shape better in my bag and also makes packing items in the pak easier. I got the black and blue... really like the look. So what does this all really mean? It means if you want advice from someone who has over a million flight miles, a hundred nights in a hotel a year, and who has seen almost every inch of the globe and knows how to pack..... buy these cubes! I am super picky about the organization of my things when I travel. I go carry on (I can go ten days in a carry-on bag) so getting everything I need into a small bag, in a way that I can get to my clothes easily without having to unpack and repack everyday is important to me. I am the person who will spend two weeks moving items from one pocket in a suitcase to another just to maximize space and convenience. I can tell you, I have gone through dozens of suitcases, half a dozen folders and cubes, more than a few dozen briefcases and computer bags.....the Shacke Pak is one of the best investments I have made in travel products. I will be purchasing a set for each member of my team as I know they will appreciate them as much as I do! I have a new name for packing cubes. Shacke Pak. Better quality, better price, and more effective than the other big named cubes and folders. FYI - - I researched the company and the product for many weeks leading up to the purchase..... If you do your homework, you will find the heavy duty travelers (those who really know and use travel products extensively) all have great things to say about the company and the Shacke Pak.

This is now the 7th shacke pack I’ve bought (myself and multiple family members), and I think this is the most variety thus far. Each set I’ve bought has held up well during multiple trips. The zippers are solid as are the top handles. Packing cubes help stay organized, and my family of 4 each have our own color if we check a larger suitcase and combine our luggage. Each person I’ve gifted these packs, including my Dad, has really liked them. This 8 pack includes toiletry and shoe bags, which were not included in earlier sets. For my personal travel, I prefer the medium and small bags over the larger bags, but my wife seems to make good use of the larger ones. We’ve even used the bags to organize toys for the kids. I hope this review helps another person looking for a quality product with a good price. Happy travels!

Pros: - Quality build - Excellent zipper quality and durability - Strong seams - Lightweight - Open netting design allows for visibility of contents and easy compression - Attractive but simple colors and design - Comfortable zipper pulls - Comes with sack to carry all the packing cubes and can alternatively be used as a travel laundry bag - 4 packing cubes for the price of many competitors offering 3 - Excellent customer service Cons: - Nothing major at the moment, but I am starting to notice after a few months of use that some of the seams appear to be stretching a little too far and am concerned that it may tear after a while - The plastic spring cord lock used on the sack that carries all the packing cubes (I used the sack as a "dirty laundry bag") broke after a month Personal Experience: Ask me a year ago whether I would ever have packing cubes and I would have scoffed at you and declared that it was illogical to try to save packing space by using packing cubes that forced the cube shape. Now...I'm a believer!! Packing cubes have changed the way I packed forever. Not only does it organize everything I pack (underwear, socks, pajamas go in one; shirts and pants go in another, etc), it allows me to pack 2-3 times more than I used to be able to because you are able to squeeze everything into a packing cube and then zip it up. Packing cubes don't add any appreciable weight to your luggage because they are so lightweight anyway. And for longer trips, I simply take out my packing cubes from my duffel bag/suitcase and they serve as drawers for all my travel items. In terms of Shacke Pak specifically, I referenced in my "Pros" why I think Shacke Pak is generally superior to other brands. In particular, I received one packing cube that had an issue with the zipper that resulted in the zipper handle breaking pre-maturely. I contacted Shacke Pak and customer service immediately sent me a replacement packing cube without any hassle. I am very pleased with the customer service and it has given me some measure of confidence that they will continue to take care of their customers in the future. **Update: I also own two sets of eBags packing cubes (you can read my other reviews) and have had the opportunity to compare them directly to Shacke Pak. In all honesty, both brands make exceptional packing cubes and you really wouldn't be disappointed either way. But to be nit picky, I will share a few of my observations: - Shacke Pak uses a material with a matte finish compared to the more shiny honeycomb design of eBags. The Shacke Pak material stretches ever so slightly, whereas the eBags material has very little give. As a result, it appears that the material eBags uses is slightly more durable, but Shacke Pak looks slightly more premium. - Shacke Pak uses hidden stitching beneath the zippers, whereas eBags uses a double stitched design in most places. After owning the Shacke Pak packing cubes for about a year, I am noticing that the hidden stitching under the zipper pulls a little more and actually becomes visible when I pack the cubes tightly. This concerns me slightly and makes me question the long term durability whereas eBags' double stitched design seems to hold strong regardless of how tightly I pack the cubes. - The depth of Shacke Pak packing cubes is .75" to 1" more, so you can pack more. - The zipper pull handle (not the zipper itself) on one of my packing cubes from Shacke Pak fell off after one month. I contacted Shacke Pak and they immediately sent me an entire new packing cube. Shacke Pak demonstrated excellent customer service, but at the same time I am a little concerned that something like that happened so quickly in the first place. Since then, I have had no issues with my two sets of packing cubes from Shacke Pak. I have had no issues with eBags in terms of the zippers or zipper handles in the 6 months that I have owned them. - Shacke Pak packing cubes gives you 4 for the price of approximately 3 from eBags. Also, Shacke Pak includes a pouch with the packing cubes that can be conveniently used as a dirty laundry bag when you're travelling. You seem to get a little more for your money with Shacke Pak. - Zipper quality for both is excellent, as they both use YKK zippers. - Overall: You can't go wrong with either and each brand has slight advantages over the other in a few areas. I personally think eBags is slightly more durable, but that Shacke Pak is slightly more attractive and gives you a little more for your money. Conclusion: If you are looking for a high quality and durable set of packing cubes for travelling, you really can't go wrong with the Shacke Pak set. The price is reasonable and you get 4 packing cubes for the price of what most competitors charge for 3. I have not had any real issues with quality or durability (I travel and use these a lot, but I will update my review in the future), and Shacke Pak has already demonstrated to me that they have excellent customer service. I also think the Shacke Pak packing cube set provides one of the most stylish designs compared to the others out there. **I have included a picture of one my packing cubes when it is packed tightly showing what I mean about the hidden stitching being stretched and visible. This concerns me a bit.

These really help to organize my different items within my suitcase and/or bags. I wish, however, that the largest bag was smaller. It’s about as big as one side of my suitcase, which I feel kind of defeats the purpose of breaking up the clothing into smaller, more manageable parts. It’s also too big for most of my carryon or overnight bags. The other sized bags are great.

I purchased 2 sets of these packing cubes because my family is selling our house and going to travel full time for a little while. My goal is to keep everything organized and I initially thought I was going to be needing 2 of the XL cubes (1 of which comes in a set). However once I opened the packs, and started packing the XL cube, I realized just how much you can actually fit in that thing, and it gets heavy very quickly. I first purchased OlarHike 6 set of packing cubes. When trying to open one of the cubes, the zipper just didn't want to slide. Not a promising start before it's packed with anything. I returned them, in hopes these cubes were slightly better quality for 1 less cube in the pack. And WOW! The zippers on these things are wonderful!! I have REI brand packing cubes from ages ago and the zippers on this set rival that of the REI brand, I'm so impressed. They're beefy and seem like they will hold up over time and use. I already have quite a few of them packed and it's getting me excited to hit the road! I purchased the light blue color and it's so pretty. Maybe not quite as bright as pictured, but I like the color a lot. The construction is great, the seams looks sturdy and everything looks reinforced. Once packed, the zippers glide closed. The sizes are a good variety, and when I tell you the biggest cube of the lot is big, it's HUGE. I fit 15 pair of shorts (maybe more, I wasn't counting) and just as many tshirts, with room to spare. I may not even end up using that particular cube, because like I said it gets heavy quickly. And I'm trying to downsize not being my entire wardrobe with me. The little laundry bag that comes with is of really high quality material, very durable. Too small for my needs, but I'll be using it for my son's travel toy bin. Keep in mind, these are NOT compression packing cubes. You can fit a lot in them, probably pack them full and not bust the seams. But they do not have a second zipper for compression. What else can I say about these cubes, they're great, and you can't beat the quality and variety for the price. 11/10 would recommend!!

First time packing cube user - will never go back! Absolutely love these! The quality is outstanding! Love this light blue color which matches perfectly with my luggage. The variety of sizes really works well because I can mix and match based on the size of luggage and what I'm packing. The cubes really hold a lot and keep everything so organized and in their place while traveling cross country. I love the design with the breathable mesh and handles for easy carrying. The laundry bag is a fabulous bonus that I really appreciated. You will not be disappointed!

Must-have for travel. Quality is excellent - easy to pack - I pack all our clothes n these cubes - at the baggage checkin in case of overweight, I just take one of these out and carry separately. Bought different colors to easily identify ours and kids.
