I recently went on a trip and this was the first time I was using packing cubes. After reviewing several other brands of packing cubes I decided to go with the Bagail brand and ordered the set of 8 cubes.I was able to use all 8 packing cubes, using the largest cube to pack a pair of jeans, capri pants, a light spring jacket and even a large towel. Second largest I packed all my tops, and then the other cubes one I packed my socks, underwear, camisoles and bras, another one with my bathing suit, flip flops and other pool items, another cube to pack my hair items (flat iron, hair dryer and rollers. Was able to pack two pairs of size 9 shoes in the shoe bag.What was helpful when I got to my hotel it was very quick and easy to unpack because I just took out the cubes and placed them in the drawers provided by the hotel.The packing cubes also came in handy when I took one of them to pack a towel, my flip flops and other pool items and put the cube in my backpack and head out to the beach or pool.I do recommend these packing cubes to help keep your clothes contained and organized and for relatively easy unpacking and re-packing when it's time to go home.
