Foldable Personal Item Bag, Carry on Travel Duffle Bag

I have lots of duffel bags but I was attracted to this one because it was foldable. I was packing for a 14-day trip to Ireland and needed all the space I could get. Because our luggage would have little space to bring home any treasures, I thought the bag would come in useful if I had to check in a 3rd bag. While this wasn't necessary, the bag was a great addition to our luggage. We took an overnight trip where we couldn't take our car (and thereby our luggage). The bag came in great to carry two people's stuff with plenty of room to spare. (We also used it to store our dirty laundry to make it easy when we took it for washing.) The bag is durable and well-made. One of the best travel purchases I've made!

I really got lucky when I selected the Wandf duffel I bought for a recent trip to Denver. I try to examine every detail when buying an item on line, but there’s always a chance to make a wrong choice. This is an ideal duffel. It’s black and white stripe fabric is stylish, dirt and stain resistant, and durable. The size was a perfect carry-on fitting easily under the seat on the plane, has a front pocket to hold things without digging into the spacious interior of the bag. I was able to fit a large puffy jacket, pair of walking shoes, iPad, camera, several charger cords, and plugs, travel pillow, extra purse, a few snacks, several magazines and more, lots more. It has a nifty feature on the back, a broad horizontal band that fits over the handle on my suitcase, which has a Velcro strip that holds the duffel on the handle. Storage is a bonus. The whole thing folds neatly into a flat envelope! Yep, this is a winner!

So helpful for coming back with a suitcase full of souvenirs. Just stash this and check all of the fragile stuff in the previous carry on while you treasures stay safe and sound.

Extremely portable, lightweight, but durable. I got the green duffel and it is just as bright a green as in the pictures. I was planning to travel to Europe and needed something to carry back fragile souvenirs, but I didn't want to bring a heavy carry-on bag. This was the almost-perfect solution. It weighed little, packed up to about the size of a larger CD case, and was very sturdy. The zips all worked well even when packed to full capacity. I stuffed the bag full of jackets (we went at the end of winter), mugs, chocolate, cookies, and breakable trinkets that I and my friend had accumulated. At the end of the journey, there were no stretched areas or tears and the bag folded easily back into its pouch. Wiping off dirt and grime from the material was pretty easy but I was careful to avoid things that stain like mud, so I cannot say how easily it stains. Some negatives to mention: like previously mentioned, it has no shoulder strap. When heavy, the handle straps dig into your arm/hand and you have to constantly shift the bag to the other side to relieve the pressure. Some people may be bothered that the bottom is not at all stiff so your things will not rest on a flat surface, but it is in favor of the bag being foldable. I took out a board from another carry-on bag and placed it in this bag when I needed it. There is also no special material or pegs on the bottom of the bag to keep the bag off the ground or prevent picking up stains from the ground. Overall, great alternative or additional carry-on bag.

I love this bag! It holds so much stuff. I bought it for an "under-the-seat" personal item for my flights, and it fit perfectly beneath the seat (I flew Alaska Airlines). I like that it has shorter handles and also a longer crossbody strap. It has no interior pockets, but I didn't need any. it does have the one outer pocket which holds several small items. The material is thick & durable. I never worried about it tearing even when I had it stuffed full. There is a sleeve on the back that fits well over the pull-out handle of my suitcase, so I could easily carry this on top of my rolling suitcase & keep a hand free. It was perfect for my travel needs on a 15-day trip, including a 10-day cruise. I am considering purchasing another bag just like it (maybe a different color) because this is such a handy duffel bag. Plus, it folds down into its own little pouch. I was easily able to get it back down to the size it was when it first arrived. It's so compact. It would be great to pack one of these to have for the return trip home to haul all of the souvenirs you buy on your trip! It was not very expensive, and it surpassed my expectations.

I waited to write this review until I returned from a vacation where I planned on using it as a carry-on and beach bag. I took this to Aruba and used it every day. I absolutely love it! First, the small pocket on the front of the bag has an inside zippered pocket, which I used to put my room key and cash. It held my beach towels, sunscreen, and snacks with plenty of room to spare. Light and well made, the material is a very sturdy nylon which held up well to the TSA in Newark, United Airlines and every day use. It folded up quickly so that I could store it in my checked bag on the way home. I ordered the neon green, which made it easy to keep track of on the beach. A few of the people in my group asked where I bought the bag because it was so versatile. It was worth the purchase price and I recommend it highly!

Used this as an extra carry-on returning from a trip to the UK. Was perfect to hold all our dirty laundry while we packed our souvenirs into our hard sided carry-ons. The strap is durable, the zipper is strong, and it fit in the overhead bin. Lots of smaller pockets to keep things separated. Packs very small (fairly easily) and is light to toss empty into your luggage heading out on the trip. Great purchase!

This bag looks compact enough in its pouch, and at first I was excited about it. The trouble for me (and for other reviewers, as it seems), is that you will never be able to get it in the pouch again. At this point, the bag becomes more trouble than it's worth to stuff in a suitcase and travel around with. It is a little bulky when it can't be stuffed back in its pouch and put in a suitcase "just in case", because it takes up too much room. This is a feature I was specifically looking for, so I had to send it back. It also didn't have a carrying strap, so it wouldn't have made it very convenient for me. Perhaps this wouldn't be an issue for people who are using this bag for other things, besides airline travel. That being said, this is made out of substantial material and I would have had no qualms checking this bag as luggage, if I had to. I wouldn't have worried about carrying heavy things in this bag, either, as it seemed sturdy. This bag was also much bigger and bulkier than I realized, and I would have been uncomfortable carrying it with me on a plane, if it was stuffed to the max, with no carrying strap. But it's a well-made bag for this price, and if you need it for a gym bag, or something like a road trip, it will probably work well for you.
