Well made but bulky compression cube
island traveler
2 years ago
As a fan of packing cubes for many years, I purchased the medium/small set. They are very well made with color coded robust zippers and fabric. I filled the medium with my usual cargo of two rolled long pants and two rolled shorts. Since I already have a medium compression cube from a longtime manufacturer, I decide to compare the two. To my surprise, the overall height after compressed was only roughly 1 inch lower in the middle then when not compressed. Perhaps I should not have been surprised since I was stuffing a lot into the cube. The welting around the edges is to say the least, very robust and bulky. After weighing my new and old compression cubes, the Thule was almost twice as heavy. This might not seem like a significant concern, but I typically travel with (3) medium, (2) small, (2) xs, and (2) long cubes, so for me, the weight does add up. Another concern with the bulky welting is my packing cubes into spaces that are often smaller than the cube size, not as easy of a task as with my other cubes. The bottom line, I did return the cubes due to the extra weight and bulky welting.

Great Quality & Size!

2 years ago

I have a mess of packing cubes and these are my favorites so far. This is my first trip using them but they are sturdy, have great compression, and I really appreciate the clamshell opening design - it makes them easier to pack and easier to find things, especially if you roll your garments and/or keep them in the cubes during your stay. Because the material is sturdy, they aren’t as floppy as other cubes which makes packing easier and again, convenient for keeping items in if you don’t unpack them fully during your stay. I also really appreciate the size of the “medium”, which is larger than the larges I’ve bought in other brands. Great for packing hiking clothes, jeans, and other larger and/or stiffer items.

Great quality packing cube

2 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Thule Compression Packing Cube - Medium is great. Perfectly designed to hold various items such as clothes, shoes, books, almost anything you can imagine you would need to pack up and store or even travel with. I would highly recommend giving these a try whether you travel or for around the house.

Great for work travel

This medium compression cube is my first packing cube. I like the fact that I can fit 2 pair of jeans, 3 undies, 3 pairs of socks, 3 shirts and 2 undershirts. I was unable to fit a towel but the space it saves is worth it.

Nice Quality, However, the material stains quickly

8 months ago

I'm a fan of Thule and its quality. Zippers are great at compressing clothing. I'm giving it a 2 star, not because of its quality, but because the material stains so easily. I had packaged items next to wet clothing, and I didn't see the stain until I went to travel again. It's a huge, big stain that won't come out. I'm disappointed after spending $30 something on the bag.

Great for weekend trips

I previously had the mesh REI compression packing cube but the zippers got stuck and is no longer of any use. So, I figured I'd try this out since there is no mesh. So far it is working perfectly! It packs in so much. I am able to fit at least 3 days worth of pants and shirts in one bag. If you're a minimalist, this is perfect!

Great packing cubes

7 months ago

For years, I didn't understand the benefits of packing cubes. Eventually, I started reading a lot of articles about one-bag packing and decided to give them a try. First game-changer. I found that I really liked the organization of packing cubes. Then I discovered compression packing cubes. Second game-changer - organized, plus keeping things tight so less chance for wrinkles, and saving a little space. These Thule compression cubes are the best I have come across - the zippers are so sturdy! And they are just the right size for my Cotopaxi Allpa. Now I can't imagine traveling without them.

Worth it

1 year ago

These are my first packing cubes. I was on the fence about the concept but decided to try it for a recent trip where I was just using a carry on bag. Loved them. They really helped me to magically get more clothes in my bag and in my hotel room, I uncompressed them and pus them in the closet to organize my stuff. Will buy more.

Love these suckers

1 year ago

These are nice. Real game changer for carryon-only travel particularly with stuff you don't mind getting a bit wrinkled - with that said though rolling clothes does help with that issue, with these cubes! Very durable and lightweight and nice design. Good size for tshirts and shorts, you can fit a few days worth in just one of these. They slot nicely into my Osprey Farpoint, I can get 2-3 in there fully packed, and 1-2 in my Osprey Fairview.

Great size and great for beach use

While not traveling, this cube is great to hold swim gear. It’s held up to daily use for months now and is awesome to wash and air dry. Haven’t been happier with quality and function. Thank you Thule!
