 Packing Cubes are Surprisingly Helpful - and this set is the best price November 3, 2007
19 out of 20 found this review helpful
Regardless of which type of luggage I'm taking (rolling duffle or structured rolling bags) these packing cubes are extremely helpful with organization inside. They allow me to compartmentalize similar items like underwear in one cube, socks in another etc. I've also been happy with them for electronic stuff - I use one for powercords and cables (for laptop, Zen player, camera, mobile phone) and other small attachments like my memory card reader for the digital camera etc.
Very useful - and I've had some of these cubes for many years so they do hold up well. I like the Eagle Creek ones a little better but the Rick Steves set is by far the best price. And, Rick Steves is a travel guru by the way - if you don't own some of his books you're truly missing out. They are the best travel books on the market. Check out the Graffiti board on his website for additional info and a taste for his tips and recommendations.
 Combine with space bags for best results September 5, 2007
14 out of 14 found this review helpful
This is a great value for packing cubes, but when I first utilized them while backpacking, I found that they encouraged inefficent packing of my shirts and undergarments, and they served mostly as springy constructs to keep my luggage from closing at all. My solution: combine these with travel-sized vacuum "space bags" (whatever maker is fine-- I have Eagle Creeks) to squeeze these down a notch. The mesh construction helps the air to circulate out of the package, but the cubes themsleves help keep everyhing organized while they're all squeezed in there and keep the bags clean.
Surprising capacity! August 3, 2007

These bags hold a lot more than I first thought when I received them. They worked great for keeping things organized, both in my suitcase and later in my (Rick Steves!) backpack. As an extra perk, the small one fits perfectly in all hotel/ship safes, so I was able to keep my valuables together. I'll be buying more of these!
Perfect for Rick's Convertible Bag (or your bag!) September 11, 2007

We own two of last year's version of Rick's Convertible Carry-on Bag. Lived out of them for 2-1/2 weeks in Europe each of the last two summers. We also bought TWO sets each of these Rick Steves' packing cubes, which exactly fit inside his Convertible Carry-on Bag (2 large and 4 small Rick packing cubes perfectly fit inside his bag - or eliminate one small cube to allow space for your dopp or toiletry kit in the bag.) If you are familiar with Rick's travel philosophy (travel light and carry-on) these cubes are a perfect compliment to his bag - or any bag you pack. They are see-through for ease of finding what you are looking for, and add virtually no weight to your bag. They keep everything organized, which keeps you from unpacking the entire bag each time you need one item. For more on Rick's travel philosophy and travel suggestions get his book Europe Through the Back Door. Invaluable.
An absolute essential for packing now! September 28, 2007

I bought these for a trip to Europe when I wanted to lighten our suitcases. I couldn't believe how much I loved them. They are so much lighter than any organizer bag or lingerie bag. I'm going to buy more--I'm never traveling without them again. They are feather-light and collapse when empty. I wished I had more to pack my souvenirs in for the trip home. Such a simple, easy, convenient way to pack underwear, gloves, umbrellas, etc. and be able to find them in your suitcase.
