I've had the bag for 6 trips and it is as advertised! It rolls well through the airport, on and off of escalators, and has no problem in the overhead (just put wheels out). Combined with the 2 folders, 1 cube, 1 1/2 cube, and a doc kit I am good for a week easy. The best part is how much quicker I am able to pack with confidence that I am not forgetting anything ... because there is a place for everything! So happy with the decision ;)

As a seasoned \'back-packer\' I remember, not so fondly, the early days of realizing that the item you want / need is ALWAYS at the very bottom of your bulging, badly packed rucksack! So many, many times did I have to tip the entire contents out (usually in the most impractical circumstances...at bus stops, or in airports), looking for that one illusive item; only to then have to re-pack it, badly, again, until the next time... A few years ago I discovered, through the most ingenious, practical Christmas present my Mum could have got me, the \'pack-it cubes\'! My backpack is now neat, organized, very quick and easy to pack (or un-pack...and re-pack!!) and the whole process is a delight! I have lost count of the number of fellow-travelers who have commented on my cubes and the number of times I've recommended this brilliant little product. I don\'t leave home without mine!

I spent 6 weeks in Europe with this suitcase. it was a dream!! I also used the recommended packing cubes and folders. I have and will continue to recommend this suitcase, and all Eagle Creek products to my friends, acquaintances, and family.
Even though the airlines tossed my luggage around, everything stayed intact, and there are only a few scratches on the plastic portions. Truly a great invention!!!

I love all my eagle creek products. Especially the double cubes (half & quarter) The folder is excellent also... though, I have cracked the plastic folding tool. I dont have the wheel luggage, but would really like to get one... as they are lighter and distinct from my Patagonia Freight liner.

I am a actress and model. As par my career, I sometimes have to take clothing to set. In order to keep my clothes organized, I use the packing cubes. The wardrobe people love it when I pull out the clothes packed cubes. It also makes it so much easier when I have to put the clothes back in my bag. Also when I go to overnight motorcycle rallies, my clothes are all nice and neat.
Those packing cubes are the best thing since sliced bread when it comes to making sure your clothes are neat and organized.

I have traveled for work and pleasure all over the US, Europe, Asia and Australia. I have been using your packing cubes for years. They are especially useful for packing if you are going to/from the US in case your bags are opened by the TSA. I had always used black packing cubes for my clothes, and when my daughter was born in December 2007, I bought a set of cubes in fuschia for her. Although it sounds like overkill, color-coding our cubes makes it very easy to travel with her. The cubes can be used for everything, including her toys, books, empty baby bottles and sippy cups. This way, there are no loose items in the baggage and things don't get lost. I really recommend using the cubes in general but they are a real sanity saver while traveling with kids. I can attest that the shirt cubes keep shirts and dresses wearable! Happy travels!

After attending a "pack it" presentation at a local travel agency where an Eagle Creek rep. demonstrated 'how to pack', I purchased a couple of the folders, a few of the cubes (in different sizes), and my absolute favorite wallaby. I love the wallaby so much because I can pack all my daily toiletries in it and as soon as I get to my destination I just hang it up on whatever is available in the bathroom and everything I need is at my fingertips. This is so handy because many of the places I have stayed at and even on cruise ships there is not always a place where you can keep your toiletries handy without them taking up space on small counters and having to be moved by housekeeping. Then with the folders and cubes, I love having everything folded and rolled so neatly and then being easy to organize in my luggage. Our lady demonstrator had also mentioned that it would be quite likely that customs agents may not inspect so thoroughly when they check your luggage. My first trip using my 'pack-its' was to Mexico and I was pleasantly surprised when they opened up my luggage, slightly moved around the cubes and folders, and then closed up the suitcases with ease. I also like that when you get to your destination, you don't have to completely unpack everything, but merely place the cubes in a drawer until you need something. I am enjoying all my pack-it items and have recommended it to anyone I know who travels and I delighted when I can be the demonstrator and pass along my knowledge. I still enjoy going to the presentations and always pick up new ideas for my vacation packing. Buying the pack-it items has been one of my best travel investments.

I love Eagle Creek. I'm an actor that travels with a touring acting company. If I have a show at night, I can generally pack my whole costume in a packing envelope and slide it in my messenger bag and carry it to work with me and have it with me all day long.
If we are traveling overnight. I use the Double Cube as a suitcase. I back my clothes in a sleeve, shoes in the shoe bag, tolieteries and other pieces in the sacs along with a day's change of clothes and I'm all set. Throw it in the double cube and I have the smallset suitcase of everyone traveling. Then it can also double up as a pillow on the really long drives.

The eagle creek folders are most definitely the best invention ever! Clothes do not crease, my husband can find things in the suitcase without turning the entire suitcase into a dishevelled mess. I keep on recomending Eagle creek to my fellow travelers and singing their praises, but unfortunately because there is no supplier in South Africa these recomendations can't be heeded. Hey I had to go all the way to Svalbard (Arctic) to get me some more eagle creek!

These are time savers as well as organizers.......all the gear arrives in one piece, immediately accessible, makes packing simple, keeps essential separate when traveling with a partner and makes International travel just so much easier when you have planes, trains and taxis to catch and no time to spare! I discovered your products on a trip to Oregon 5 yrs ago and they are now an "essential" for all travel from a weekend break to an extended International trip.I am now looking for a bag as I am sure it will measure up to the same standard of practicality and durability.

I spent hours and hours online and at stores looking for the perfect bag that could do it all: rolling and backpack capable (for both rugged travel or just city & country hopping) and gave me the most amount of cubic inches for the least amount of weight. I really didn't care what it cost, I just wanted the best out there and I got a fantastic product for a great price. The removable daypack is genius and lets me squeeze by carry-on limits by carrying the daypack as my "personal item" (i.e. purse) and the main bag as my carry-on luggage. Even though the main bag is technically too big at 25" to pass as carry-on, when I batton it down with the compression straps, no one seems to notice and I never have to check it. I won't shut up about this bag and have posted my review on eBags and REI and tell anyone who will listen how great it is.
I also swear by your Pack-It system and rave about it to whoever will listen. My friends & family used to make fun of me with all my folders and cubes, calling me The OCD Traveler but now they are eating crow. I buy the Pack-It gift sets as birthday, Christmas and even wedding presents and I have made converts out of all those who told me I was over-the-top. If I didn't love my job so much (I'm a NICU nurse) I would pack it all in (no pun intended!) and work for Eagle Creek. Thanks for your fantastic products!

The Pack It folders make it easy to pack and unpack frequenetly without having to actually pack and unpack frequently! I.e, Each color-coded folder folder stays perfectly intact no matter how much rummaging may occur.
The cubes are perfect for color coding all the smaller items and allow me to retrieve only the particular set of items I need, right now!
It is "Right Now" packing! Love it!
