Some comments say the quality is pretty bad but worth the risk for $10. Thanks!

As a frequent traveler, I can provide some feedback. First, packing cubes are great to organize your suitcase. You can quickly unpack, repack. And you can go from hotel to hotel without hassle.

If you travel a few times a year, it is worth having packing cubes.

When buying packing cubes, you want sturdy canvas fabric. Because cheap canvas will quickly fray. Double stitching and a binding (piece of fabric that covers the join to preview fraying) is important for durability.

Nets are the best way to allow the contents to air out/breathe. It also lets you view the contents. More net is better. When you see clear/frosted plastic to let you view, then check its thickness. Personally, I think of frosted and clear plastic as cheap and not durable. It will crack or tends to be very thin.

You should always have double stitching along all joints. The strength of these joints are what holds it together and lets you stuff the cubes. The stitching should not be loose. If you can pick at a stitch and it lifts up, that is not a good stitching. Compare that to your clothing... if you had a loose stitching then you know your clothes are going to fall apart.

If you travel once a year, then cheap packing cubes may last you 2-4 years. If you travel a few times a year then cheap packing cubes won't last more than a year before it starts falling apart.

I have eBags packing cubes that I have used on and off for 10 years. They are expensive. And I think you can probably find good quality for about half the price of eBags' list. But if you just want to get it over with and want something that will last, go with a brand like eBags.

I have never tried Veken. But I have recently bought some cheap packing bags from Amazon. One set is very lightweight and I expect will fray (though their name had Gorilla in it so I thought they would be heavier duty). Another is heavier and much better canvas but with loose stitching.

Packing cubes are very useful for travel. Good luck!

Packing cubes + travel vacuum bags to reduce bulk for more space if needed.

Yeah.. My problem with luggage and packing cubes made by Alphabet spam companies that appear on Amazon and nowhere else is the quality.

I've gone through Name brand packing cubes. Hell even Ebags Name Brand stuff was 1000X better then crap i got once off of Ebay.

Where the Average stuff and absolute crap differentiate themselves are the Zippers and seams. The Good stuff the zippers and seams will never burst as you reasonably stuff the cubes.

The bad stuff and especially the stuff with bad mesh will tear at seams or the zipper itself will just bust open.

Even at $10 i will assume this is garbage. The 1 - Star Amazon reviews show pictures of everything that goes wrong with cheap packing cubes.

I actually carried a similar product. We sold for 20-22.00 a set. But we used the YKK good zippers and our seams didnt fall apart. Some of the overseas companies get tons of reviews (wink wink) and people want the absolute cheapest price regardless. At this price the seller is just trying to push to the top since Amazon charges comissions and shipping+sotrage fees+pull and pack. You getting this item overnight is not free. This here is a loss leader to get sales at higher prices.

I find that normal packing cubes take up more space than rolling & sectioning off your own suitcase. Compression packing cubes do help make more space, but they do cost more.

These are cheap though, so if you just want to be more organized for your suitcase, no harm in trying them out.

But I'd go with the compression cubes or ones you can roll out to take out the air.

The rollup vacuum travel bags are absolutely amazing. We use them for our dirty laundry to compress everything down while also keeping everything else in the suitcase clean. I made fun of my spouse until she showed me how much they compressed everything down. Totally worth having in your travel arsenal!
