Here is a very neat example from Google...

Looks like I’m the only one who doesn’t use them and I thought I was super organised! I feel like they just take more room in the case though?

I had them on our last trip and I found them particularly useful just because I could lift them out of the suitcase and drop straight into a drawer, kept it a bit tidier and quicker.

I find I fit more into the suitcases since I started using them. They’re soft so easy to compact.

I love them and have used them for a few years now.
One of my suitcases has the elastic restraints on main section and lid section so if you don’t use a cube everything falls out of the lid when you close the case.

Oh we love a packing cube. Can organised packing easily, other less wrinkled and no issue if your case isn't packed full of everything sliding to the bottom of your case as you pull it along.

Wouldn’t travel without them now, even just for a short break in the UK we use them.

Each person has one for underwear which is ideal when you’re staying somewhere without much storage as everything is tidy and together. I’m not a huge fan of transferring undies into drawers that have been used by lots of other people so I’m happier just slipping the cubes into the drawers, and again it stays tidy.

For clothes, we usually do one cube each of shorts and one of t-shirts and then each night choose an outfit for the following day and hang it up. Sometimes my teens will put outfits (top and shorts) together in cubes so they just get out the next outfit.

I also do one or two cubes with all the swim stuff as we don’t use that every day so easy to find bikinis and things quickly when we do need them.

Only problem is you can get so much more in that it's easier to go over weight.

Anyone suggest a decent make, or does it not matter? There are plenty of options on amazon, so could just pick a well reviewed one.
