Review on 🧳 Compression Carry-on Travel Accessories: Packing Travel Organizer by David Richardson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

These compression cubes were great for multiple uses

These compression cubes were great for multiple uses. My wife and I got a set. We also ordered the Eagle Creek Specter version. Eagle Creek is more expensive so I wanted to compare them. However, I have not subjected them to any extreme tests. I just used them at the same time as I went on a trip. I then used it to carry my change of clothes in my gym bag. The pockets were never overstuffed as there was usually only a shirt and a pair of shorts in them. Unfortunately, after a few uses, the zip detached from the smaller packing cube in the non-compressing part of the bag. You can see it in the photo with the green part without the zipper. My wife's larger packing cube also had a zipper issue on the compression part. This can be seen in the photo where the dark zipper is severed. I hate spending more money on an Eagle Creek kit but after a few months they are still going strong. I waited a few months after the TRIPPED bags failed to see if Eagle Creek had the same issues. I can confirm that it is not. I love having an option that's half the price of the Eagle Creek Specter, but it doesn't do me any good if I have to replace TRIPPED bags every few months. If I were to purchase another set of these bags to replace the faulty ones I would spend the same amount I spent on the original Eagle Creek purchase. Then I'll probably have to buy a new set in a few months. Therefore, TRIPPED bags end up costing more than Eagle Creek bags, which are much higher quality. Save yourself the hassle and spend more on the frontend.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
