7-Pcs Travel Cubes

I fought the whole packing cube idea for a long time, thinking they couldn’t possibly make THAT much difference...but I’m now an official convert 😉 Granted, I haven’t done any hands-on comparison between brands, so this review is about the YAMIU 7-piece set only. They seem to be made well (strong seams, quality materials, good zippers, etc)...and compared to other brands I considered, reasonably priced. I like these well enough that I will be ordering another set for my hubby before we leave for an extended holiday next fall. That said, the WOW-factor comes with what can actually be packed in them. I am an experienced traveler and can absolutely “do” minimalist, carry-on packing...but cubes take it to a new level. I use a typical, small, wheeled suitcase that can be taken aboard flights for the overhead bin (small enough for international travel). My work-wardrobe consists mostly of microfiber garments, so wrinkling is not a problem. Most often, I pack for a one week stay: 3 pants, 6 tops, a lightweight cardigan and the other necessities (undergarments, socks, bathing suit, coverup). To be sure, I am not a size 4, so these are real clothes worn by a slightly chunky, middle-aged woman 😆 It takes a little practice to roll clothing well, but when fully packed, the largest cube takes up just over half the suitcase space. I can now pack my entire work-wardrobe in that cube (which previously filled the suitcase). This allows me to pack extra shoes or even a pair of boots...with quite a bit more room to spare! In packing the smallest cubes, I’ll simply share what I packed for a non-work-related long-weekend trip: 2 pair denim leggings, 1 lightweight merino wool long sweater, 1 microfiber tunic, 1 heavy(ish) button-down shirt, bathing suit, coverup and a 3 day supply of undergarments, socks and such. I used the other small cube to compress my memory foam travel pillow and blanket...and could get more into that cube, if I needed more room. The two cubes took up about 2/3rds of my standard shoulder-carry bag, so lots of room for my hanging toiletry bag and a pair of flats...plus my full length raincoat neatly packed under everything in the zippered (shoe?) bag that comes with this YAMIU set. This brings up another benefit of using cubes: ORGANIZATION!! Just for the few trips I’ve taken since purchasing these cubes, I’ve seen how well things can be organized. Something as simple as not having to dig through my shoulder bag to get my pillow and blanket while sitting in the ever-shrinking airline seating space 😖 It was so much easier to simply grab that cube! Plus, it was just as easy to repack those items to put them away. In addition, for extended trips, each cube can be packed with specific items (like all tops in one and all bottoms in another). This would be awesome for backpacking or the proverbial living out of your suitcase. All-in-all, I would recommend these packing cubes for their quality, price, and usability.

These packing cubes are great! I love to travel, but I hate to pack! These cubes make packing so much easier. Everything is organized, and I love the different sizes. They range from smaller cubes, for personal items, to larger ones that can fit multiple pants, and tops. There's even a bag for shoes, and two different size clear bags for toiletries. They definitely cut down on clothes getting wrinkled, which I love! They help make a more organized suitcase! I bought more, and then bought some as gifts. Please keep making these, because they're great! I highly recommend!

ORIGINAL review - ... but as has happened many times before with previous Amazon orders, I am being asked for a review before having had a chance to use the item. I can attest to them being lightweight. But that's all I can report on at this time hence my 3 star average, middle-of-the-road review for the present. I have a trip coming up, i.e. the trip for which I ordered the cubes. After I return I will update my review of the product. 1st Update: I knew my TravelPro Crew 22" rollaboard would not be large enough for this trip, so I ordered and received the TravelPro Crew™ VersaPack™ 26" Expandable Rollaboard® Suiter. I decided to pull out the clothing for my 10-day trip ahead of time and see what I could fit into the cubes. I was able to pack the 7 days of clothing (I'll be able to do laundry at our destination) into the large, medium and 1 small cube without any problem. I previously viewed a few YouTube videos on packing clothing in the cubes, and decided to use a method in which each article of clothing is rolled into what resembles a cylinder, then inserted into a cube. Using this method promotes saving space, allowing each article of clothing to be neatly packed in rows of cylinders in each cube. After packing the clothing, I inserted each of the 3 cubes in my suitcase and discovered that it used about half of the available space in the suitcase. I am amazed at the amount of space remaining. In terms of usability, the packing cubes allowed me to pack as I intended, neatly and in an organized fashion. Final Update: The trip was a 1&1/2 months ago. I liked the packing cubes so much that I will probably use them for all of my trips from now on, even those which don't use air travel. I can see the benefit of packing all of my clothing in less space.

These cubes worked out great for me and saved a lot of frustration throughout a weeklong trip to multiple destinations. I especially liked the one with the zipper down the middle as it fit my hair dryer and 3 other hair implements. I still used a pillowcase to collect my dirty laundry during the trip because it's just easier but the cubes were nice because as there were fewer clean clothes they collapsed inside my suitcase. Everything stayed organized and I was able to see the rolled up clean clothing through the mesh. The clear plastic bags don't collapse very well so I supplemented with other bags and it was all good. The only issue I had was when I cut the tip of my finger on the inside of one of the clear plastic bags as I was shoving stuff in there. Not sure how that happened but I don't really blame the product or the manufacturer. That could happen with anything made from plastic. Also THANKS Amazon for same-day delivery! It was amazing that I received these within hours of ordering, just in time to start packing.

Great buy, fits everything perfectly.

Practical I liked the sizes but I didn’t like the cloth material

El producto esta genial y de buena calidad , llegó antes de lo que esperaba..

Sturdy, good sizes and I really like the edges
