Amazon shoppers hail ‘game changer’ travel accessories that make packing ‘easy’

Must read

Amazon has reduced the price of a bestselling travel accessories set that will help to make light work of packing your holiday essentials.

The Cipway Compression Packing Cubes Set has sold in hundreds over the past month as holidaymakers prepare for their summer getaways, and with a 15% price drop as part of a limited time deal it’s the perfect time to snap them up to take your organisation skills to the next level ahead of any upcoming trips. Priced at £30.59 for a set of six, the cubes come in a range of sizes for different clothing types and are designed to compress the contents of your bag or suitcase to help you fit more inside.



Made in a lightweight and durable nylon fabric with double zippers and reinforced seams to withstand frequent travel, the cubes are also the perfect solution to keep your travel belongings neat and tidy. You can sort your outfits into separate cubes for stress-free unpacking when you get to your destination, and use one to keep your dirty laundry separate at the end of your holiday.

These packing cubes are available as a three-piece set for £21.24 or a five-piece set for £29.74 for smaller trips, with white or green to choose from as well as grey to match your suitcase. And they have earned rave reviews from Amazon shoppers too, with an average score of 4.3 out of five stars based on more than 6,000 ratings.

One person praised: “In my experience, compression packing cubes have been a game-changer for maximising space in my travel backpack. The compression feature allows you to squeeze out excess air, reducing the volume of your clothes and other items. This not only helps you fit more into your luggage but also keeps everything neatly organised.”

Another said: “I always overpack when I go travelling but these help a lot with organising your clothes and being able to fit more into smaller luggage. Super easy to use and can hold lots of clothes, zippers are strong and durable.”

A third shopper fed back: “I’ve had these for a couple of years now and have used them many times on weekends and longer holidays away. They work so well and have stood up perfectly to the repeated use – as strong and intact now as when I bought them. Very highly recommended.”

And someone else wrote: “I love this product! A few days away with the family and I could pack these little cubes in the run up to out trip and then chucked them in the suitcase. It also made packing coming home easy and I put the worn clothes in a cube as we holidayed! So many veritable uses too as you could use the smaller ones as a little daily bag!”

While 82% of Amazon shoppers awarded the packing cubes either four or the full five stars, some felt that they made “no difference” to the amount they could fit in their bag or suitcase when using them. And while the Cipway set comes in cheaper than high-end brands such as Antler, it’s worth noting that more budget-friendly options are available – Amazon’s bestselling choice is the Jsdoin Packing Cubes Set, which includes nine cubes of different sizes for £12.99, while on the high street Dunelm offers a 7 Piece Travel Storage Bag Set for £10.
