My compression packing cubes are broken and I need some more, or at least one more. It needs a sturdier zip. Here’s what I found …<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The medium bag I am replacing is 35cm x 25cm or 13.7″ by 9.8″<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I watched two videos,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Compression Cubes Review \u2013 Which One is Best for Travel …<\/a> with Amber from Gateway Travel<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The Best Compression Packing Cubes<\/a>, from Away Together and Aly, in this case Nic.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    And shortlisted the following<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. By Tripped Travel Gear<\/a> , expensive and maybe large, but they have a much cheaper two piece. $18.95 USD, but not sure of the sizes, the six piece set which Amber liked is $50 i.e. \u00a336.95 but I must know the size. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. By Bagail<\/a>, advertised as 4 piece set, the page is quite unclear on what one gets. Price is in USD. The four piece set has three usable, one is probably too big. $24.99 for a four piece set. + delivery.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Cipway<\/a>, offers a pack of three, The medium is fine, and the small is also usable. They boast about the zip. \u00a324.99 for three pieces. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Gonex<\/a>, set of 4, with code, the medium is a bit small. \u00a329.99 RRP with a code<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Thule<\/a>, Medium, 35.6L x 25.9W x 3.2H centimetres \u00a315.99 – one piece and sadly one colour. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Albatross<\/a>, 4 piece, two mediums, 10″ x 8″ and one large 14×10″ – \u00a325<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      I bought the Thule. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      One lesson from my first purchases, is that you pay for quality. I don’t want to be cheap this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
