Basically, they’re cube shaped soft cases, that zip up around the top and allow you to roll, fold, and separate your packing into different sections. You can then arrange the cases (they come in varying sizes) in your main suitcase, and unpack in an ordered fashion when your reach your destination! It can also be handy to keep some things in their cases (travel adapters/electrics, and first aid supplies), to keep things organized in drawers and on shelves.

However, ordering something inexpensive initially, then spending a bit more on a hardwearing set further down the line if you get on well with them, can be a good plan. If you’re a convert then you might want to invest in a more sturdy set like below. Incidentally, even if the first set didn’t last more than a few trips, you could cut the top bit off and keep the base for a pretty storage container, maybe in an underwear drawer or linen cupboard.
