Amazon Shoppers Say These Packing Cubes Are 'the Only Way to Pack'

If your closet and dresser are carefully organized, why not bring that same sense of order to your suitcase? After all, one of the quickest ways to feel stressed about an upcoming trip is to stare at the outfits you want to bring only to realize you're not quite sure how they're all going to fit inside your suitcase. To solve this dilemma and to make it easier to find your things on the go, travelers turn to packing cubes—and this under-$30 set has more than 12,300 five-star ratings on Amazon.

The Veken packing cube set is the best-selling travel organizer on Amazon. Not every article of clothing requires the same amount of space, so each set includes six pieces, including an extra-large cube, a shoe bag, and a laundry bag. All of the bags in the set are made from 100 percent nylon, and they're waterproof to keep everything inside safe and dry while you travel. Plus, each bag features clothing labels to help you to know what's inside in a pinch. The bags also have mesh and two-way zippers to make opening and closing them quick and easy.

To buy: $26; amazon.com.

"These packing cubes are the only way to pack," wrote one reviewer. The travel packing cubes arrive with instructions from the brand about the best space-saving ways to fold clothes inside each cube, which this reviewer appreciated. "It was so easy to move from hotel to hotel because my bag was always neat and orderly," said another shopper who was increasingly frustrated by their "messy suitcase."

Amazon shoppers find the packing cubes are so helpful, they're continuing to use them to stay organized once they're back at home.

"The sizes are great for what we've used them for—actually bigger than I was expecting," noted a happy shopper who used their packing cubes for their honeymoon and has continued to use them to organize their closet at home. "They have held up great so far."

These packing cubes help keep all of your essentials organized inside your suitcase and beyond, so you can spend more time exploring a familiar or new destination. Shop for one of the $26 sets for travel (and home) in 10 colors.
