Eagle Creek Pack-It Half Tube Cube

I bought three each of this and the full size cube for two recent lengthy Europe trips and am a packing cube convert. Suitcase remains neat, and this very well made item was sturdy but superlight and holds a lot. When packed, the rounded edges and small size made squeezing lots of stuff into a small space a snap. I used this smaller size alternately in my carryon (for small side trips) and also filled one with heavier items in my big suitcase, ready to transfer on the spot to my carryon if I was overweight. The flexibility and organization make packing cubes a travel must for me. I have two suggestions: a clear plastic slot on the outside so one can place a list of what's inside. And a recommendation that new buyers consider a color rather than black, as it's easier to find in a black large suitcase. A terrific item.

Never realized how much packing cubes make travel so pleasant, especially when confronting Airline fees, delays, etc. These fit into an unused space in the Carry-on and make not only the arranging of items easier, but they also reduce the risk of losing or forgetting clothing.
