Originally $50, now $38

The cubes, which have a limited lifetime warranty, are made from a Techlite poly fabric and each have a partial mesh top and a handle. The largest cube measures 17.5″ x 12.75″ x 3.25″. With a pack of six, you can easily store big-ticket items like tops and bottoms as well as undergarments.

One happy customer writes, “I was so impressed with how much the cubes simplified packing, unpacking, and living out of a suitcase, whether staying in a given place for only one night or a more extended period, that I got online in the middle of my trip and ordered more in different colors: ‘his,’ ‘hers,’ and ‘dirty’.”

Eagle Creek has been making travel products forever, and these packing cubes have earned more than 1,000 5-star ratings at Amazon. They’re available in the pictured bright blue as well as red and black, and the mesh top shows you what’s inside each one. The three sizes are a nice assortment for underwear, socks, and clothes, with the largest measuring 14” x 10” x 3”. Bonus: The company’s products have a lifetime warranty.

One traveler writes, “We’re buying more before our next trip and probably giving them as stocking stuffers this holiday season. These are awesome.”

This is the rare packing cubes set that has an assortment of colors in a single set—perfect for color-coding (for two people’s clothing, for example), and a little more fun, too. They are all the same size (17.5” x 12.75” x 3.25”), are water-resistant, and have mesh tops. Sets in other sizes are also available at slightly different price points.

One of the 1,800 5-star reviews—from a packing-cubes convert—reads, “The zippers and handles are strong, and the mesh is a great detail. The material is durable and easy to maintain. This was a new way for me to pack, and I will continue to do it this way. It was easy, and so practical!”

Besides standard packing cubes, this set includes a water-resistant shoe bag and two clear waterproof bags, one of which is a TSA-approved size for carry-on toiletries/liquids. (The larger of the two could work well for a bathing suit that hasn’t had time to dry before your trip home.) The largest of the six cubes is 17.5” x 12.5” x 4”. The six color options include black, pink, and red, and the set comes with a lifetime warranty and “100% satisfaction guarantee.”

One happy customer writes a review to say, “Sometimes my husband and I end up packing in the same bag if we’re only going away for a short time. Our clothes get tossed about trying to find what we’re looking for and half the time I think I forgot something because I can’t find it in the mess. I used these packing bags for the first time last week on a camping trip and I LOVED how neat and organized I was able to keep my clothes.”

Amazon Basics’ packing cubes come in several colors, from black to sky blue, which gives you the option of color-coding by combining two sets (for pajamas vs. daytime clothes, for example). A few nice features are the double zipper pulls, mesh tops to reveal what’s inside, and little handles on top. The largest size is 17.5” x 12.75” x 3.25”.

One review shared this praise: “Packing is so easy now; pants and sweaters go into the large cube, shirts go in the medium cube, and everything else goes in the small cube. My clothes never wrinkle in these.”

Marketed as a product to organize a diaper bag, this set of packing cubes would work just as well in a suitcase, especially if you want smaller bags (for underwear, socks, and so on). Plus, they’re cute! They’re available in black, a floral print, and two herringbone options, and the gold-tone and rose gold-tone zippers are a nice detail. Note that the cubes are machine washable, which is a rare and welcome feature.

One reviewer notes, “These packing cubes are great for organizing any bag! The materials all feel super luxurious, and the zippers are high quality and slide super smoothly! Love the grab handles.”

You can instantly see everything that’s inside. The set has earned a 4.9 rating out of 5 at Amazon, and the choices for the bags’ trim are black and a gray camo.

Note that the smallest bag meets TSA guidelines for a carry-on toiletry/liquids bag.

I began using the larger cubes for my clothes etc. and it was awesome how much less space everything took up. On top of that, it’s all organized!
