Eagle Creek Pack-It Specter Folder 18  (Limited Time Offer)

"At first it looks a little flimsy as it is so light. But it totally does the job. Love the diagram on the bottom on how to fold things - and the folding board is very handy. I recommend at least the 18" size."

"This packing folder is large so I don't use it as often for short-term travel. However, when packing for a two-week trip to Europe it is perfect for keeping shirts and slacks wrinkle-free. Who wants to iron clothes when on vacation!"

"Best investment in packing for travel that I have ever made to protect, to maintain and to reduce volume of clothing. You have to try it to believe it."

"I have several of the old Pack-It Folders. I bought the new Pack-It Specter Folder 18 because of the light weight and it is great."

"Review for, Eagle Creek, Pack-It Specter Folder 18: Overall, this item is well constructed, and I believe that that it will be durable. The fabric is very light, as advertised, however, the plastic back and folding sheet are heavier than I anticipated (I suppose that the listed 8 oz weight did not fully register). I purchased this product hoping to save a little space/weight. It works reasonably well, but did not provide a significant reduction in space/weight for me. Please note that I have traveled weekly for more than 5 years and my packing style is already quite efficient. I (engineer) fit significantly more clothing into a smaller space than most people I have traveled with. One benefit of using the folder is protecting clothing from spills, abrasions, etc. The folding sheet does have a fabric edging, so it will not cut into clothes. As for reducing wrinkles, the folder did not provide any benefit for me, but as I stated previously, I have become quite adept at packing efficiently and keeping my clothes (primarily slacks and long sleeve button-ups) wrinkle free. If I could suggest any change, I would reduce the thickness/stiffness of the plastic parts and/or increase the number of holes in the folding sheet, simply to reduce the total weight, but this may not be possible while providing a lifetime warranty (as Eagle Creek does with this product). Overall, this is a good product, well built and thought out. For the average traveler, I imagine that it would provide a significant benefit."

"This is a great product. It works as designed. it's lightweight and semi-transparent. The only downside is the cost. Even though I bought two, they are too expensive. They should be half the price."

"This really does help with packing. It's the folding that makes it work and the envelope keeps it together. It helped me pack for a 2 week international trip with only a carry-on. I would recommend to anyone trying to travel light."

"Useful and light. Prevents wrinkling to a large extent."

"Nice and light"

"Very lightweight compared to the original!"
