Mobile Pls recommend me your packing cubes!

Sorry about the boring post!

But we're planning on a month in Florida next August. I'm thinking we will have a holdall each, with packing cubes for shorts; tee shirts; underwear etc. Boys will be 12 and 14 so maybe it might help keep them organised *clutches at straws*

We're actually off to Corfu next week so thought I'd give them a try. Ebay seem to be £5/6ish for 6, with Amazon at about £20. Admittedly, the Amazon ones look bigger, but what works best for you?

TIA x

Try the cheapo ones first I remember well how hard teenage boys are with things with zips clothes hangers if they work invest in a better set
But our cheap ones lasted years because I put bits of ribbon through the eye in the zipper so they didn’t yank it as hard
We still have 2 sets of really cheap ones DILs use for the Gdks

I got mine from amazon, I think they were about £10 a set and they’re on their 6th trip and no signs of wear.

I also bought some in Ikea, those I wouldn’t recommend as the sizes are not good.

Amazon basics. Have had eBay and eagle creek previously but these have the strongest mesh / zips I have found.

Thanks everyone! I have ordered some cheapy ones from eBay and got 4 for the price of 3 (love a bargain!). If we get on with them, I will splash out on something more expensive/ sturdy

I have a set of the cheap eBay ones (still fine after two trips)
A set of the ikea ones. Yes they are fairly small but use some of the very small ones for little bits, cables etc.

Then the best ones I have are gonex compression ones. Move expensive but much better quality and these are the ones I use the most, weekends away etc

We got these. I don’t know that I recommend them per se as I have nothing to compare to and imagine they are much of a muchness.
