We’ve all been there: You’re packing your suitcase with clothes, pajamas and shoes only to realize you’ve run out of room before you can throw in your favorite hat and camera.

Why is this a good deal? ??

Saving space in your suitcase can be the difference between traveling with just a carry-on and having to check your luggage — which can cost $50 or more at most airlines, not to mention the frustration of having to lug around a bigger bag once you get to your destination. The Bagail Packing Cubes Set just might be your remedy, and at $16 with Prime (down from $20), it's both a space-saver and a cost-saver.

Why do I need this? ??

Whether you have big travel plans, you’re going away on a weeklong cruise or just taking a short business trip, the brilliance of packing cubes is in their organization. Ever pack meticulously, only to have to tear your suitcase apart to find that one tank top? How about, have you ever arrived at your location only to find that dresser and closet space is almost non-existant? Enter packing cubes! They keep your luggage organized and, because these cute cubes have structured sides, you can take them from your bags to dresser drawers — so your shirts, underwear and socks stay separate.

The set includes four lightweight cubes — an extra-large, large, medium, and small organizer — each featuring double zipper pulls, mesh paneling and a top handle for convenience. It also comes with a free laundry bag to separate out dirty clothes at the end of your trip.

What reviewers say ??

The Bagail Packing Cubes Set has over 26,500 perfect reviews, with shoppers crediting them with keeping things tidy while traveling.

Pros ??

One happy reviewer saved money thanks to these cubes: "Everyone should own one of these! I plan on buying them for my parents. I kid you not, I was able to pack 8 dresses, 10 tops, 5 pants, swimsuits, 1 bag, 2 heels, my straightener and makeup all in a carry-on. And these keep everything so organized! A must have for traveling, will save you a lot of time and money not needing to check luggage."

"Game-changer for organizing your suitcase!" raved another fan. "I have now bought two sets of these cubes and use them every time I travel. They’re sturdy, well-made and they hold more than enough clothing for trips of any length. We’ve used them for weekend trips and month-long adventures and have always been impressed with how much they’re able to hold. ... All around a great way to maximize space in your suitcase."

One thrilled user used them to separate family members' items: "Once you start using packing cubes you'll never go back," they wrote. "I used these cubes to help organize our family of six for a 2-week international trip ... This is a lifesaver and eliminated so much time and stress from my travel routine. Definitely worth the investment."

Cons ??

"My only complaint is in sizing," noted one shopper. "I wish these sets came with four mid-size cubes and only one larger cube. Unless you're taking a month-long holiday, I can’t see getting much use for two of the larger cubes. If you travel primarily with a carry-on, the mid and small sizes will be your go-to."

A final traveler agreed: "Found the larges were too large for travel. I would have preferred three to four medium and three to four small cubes instead."
