BAGSMART Compression Packing Cubes 8-Piece Set
An 8-piece compression set for carry-on or checked bags
An 8-piece set of compression cubes in several sizes plus drawstring bags, with an exterior compression zipper, mesh panels and labels. The ripstop fabric is water and wear resistant.
Our take
Most cube sets are either too small or too big. Four pieces runs out on a long trip. Ten pieces is a family kit you'll half use.
This one sits in the middle. You get compression cubes in several sizes plus drawstring bags for shoes or laundry. The exterior compression zipper flattens clothes, the mesh panels and labels help you find things fast, and the ripstop fabric resists water and wear. It suits someone who flies carry-on one trip and checks a bag the next. Know two things before you buy. It has fewer reviews than the big names so far, and like any compression cube it saves room, not weight, so a full bag gets heavy.
If you switch between bag sizes, this is a good set to own. Weekend trips only? A couple of cubes is enough. Check the price before you book.
Who it’s for
Travelers who switch between carry-on and checked bags and want a mix of cube sizes plus spare bags.
Skip it if
Skip it if you take short trips with a small bag. Two or three plain cubes do the job with less fuss.
BAGSMART Compression Packing Cubes 8-Piece Set: questions people ask
What are drawstring bags for in a packing set?
Shoes, chargers or dirty laundry. They keep that stuff away from your clean clothes.
Do packing cube labels help?
Yes, when every cube looks the same. Labels or clear mesh save time, especially when a few people share one suitcase.
Do compression cubes damage clothes?
Not usually, though tight compression can crease delicate fabrics. Fold those loosely in the biggest cube.
