Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

These little bags saved my life--went on a trip to Europe for two weeks and didn't want to risk the possibility of lost luggage. I--a person who is well-known for overpacking--fit two week's worth of bulky winter clothing and dinner dresses for a luxurious European cruise IN A CARRY-ON!! My mother and husband were AMAZED I was able to travel so lightly, even our Uber driver looked at me like I was some anomaly when I told him our travel plans. Again--I'm the one who goes to a week long trip to Hawaii with massive luggage filled with teeny bikinis. I will admit that there is some strategy and a bit of playing Tetris to make sure these fit well in a carry-on. They work similar to vacuum bags, minus the vacuum part. Be smart with your folding--I rolled many of my thinner sweaters, pjs, and t-shirts and was able to fit more than just folding them squarely. I was also sure to wear my parka on the plane so I didn't have to worry about packing it (we traveled from DC to Europe in November). I didn't bring a hair dryer or curling iron since the cruise doesn't allow U.S. appliances--they did provide both in our rooms though :) --shout-out to Ama Waterways! The bag/cubes themselves are sturdy and stretch enough to handle heavy clothing and are very pliable. With everything I fit in them, I'm impressed the zippers withstood the pressure--good construction! Already bought additional sets as gifts for all my over-packer friends & family. Don't hesitate getting these-- they really make a difference.
