Everyone has experienced the struggle of trying to close an overstuffed suitcase, hoping that all we need will somehow fit inside. However, there are useful tools available that can make packing a doddle, allowing holidaymakers to squeeze even more into their luggage. At Simplify, customers can now snap up a set of Compression Packing Cubes for just £38, reduced from £68, saving 45%. The set, which includes five packing cubes, is claimed to save up to 60% packing space and help keep items neatly organised.

The set includes a large hoodie/coat cube, which accommodates two to three jumpers or coats; a T-shirt cube, which fits seven or eight shirts; a trouser cube, which holds five or six pairs of trousers; an underwear cube, which fits four to five pairs of underwear, and a socks cube for seven to eight pairs of socks. The robust zippers allow users to expel excess air and compress their clothes down as small as possible, and each cube has a handy picture label so it’s easy to identify what’s in which.

Moreover, when customers purchase the set, they can receive a complimentary Simplify Travel Guide to assist them on their journey. The cubes are available in a variety of colours, including black, blue, grey, pink and red, and there are even larger bundles on offer: The Value Pack, priced at £64.60, reduced from £136 and includes two sets, and the Family Pack, which comprises three sets for £91.20, down from £204.

There are other varieties of packing cubes available as well. For instance, Amazon stocks Packing Cubes for £12.99, which arrive in a classic grey shade and feature nine bags for garments, undergarments, footwear, toiletries, washing and more, reports the Mirror.

Meanwhile, at Dunelm, customers can snap up a Set of 3 Travel Storage Packing Cubes for £4.20 reduced from £6, also available in a grey tone. These particular ones are water-resistant, machine washable, and are available in multiple sizes.

Nevertheless, the Simplify Compression Packing Cubes boast an impressive 4.8 star rating from 818 reviews. One purchaser commented: “Very happy – used our Compression Packing Cubes on an interstate trip which only took up half the suitcase.

“Allocated Cubes made finding and organising clothes easy. Still had room to add a few gifts to bring back, so compact and streamlined!”

Another remarked as part of a lengthier review: “I was going to Sri Lanka and wanted to be able to carry my outfits without having to carry more luggage, so I purchased 2 sets (pink and blue). I am so impressed with these that not only will I be using them again when I head off to Vietnam and Cambodia, on Saturday, but I purchased 8 more sets to give to all my family as Christmas presents.”

Some did highlight certain concerns, including one purchaser who noted: “Good quality. Compression works well, but bags [are] smaller than I would’ve liked.”

However, most customers were delighted with their purchase, with one stating: “Love the colour! Brilliant lighter way to travel. Easy and organised. I highly recommend these.”

The Compression Packing Cubes can be purchased at Simplify.
