User Review: Gobi Gear Hoboroll

Rating: rated 4.5 of 5 stars
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $28

Summary

Product facilitates the stowage of similar items into different sleeves, thus providing easy and faster access to desired items. The compression of the roll reduces bulk and allows more content to be placed in the larger luggage container.

Pros

  • separation of items into sleeves for easy retrieval compression of roll to reduce bulk in luggage alternate usess such as short term carrying unit for sports wear

Cons

  • needs more substantial snap buckles
  • could be larger

While I was at first uncertain as to how I would use the product as I am not a back packer or "hobo," I found on several recent trips that it was extremely helpful in allowing me to pack similar items together in the different sleeves and to be able to compress it and thus get more room in my suitcase.

It is easy to use and appears to be very well made with the exception of the buckle snaps which could be stronger. I don' know of any other similar products on the market and thus feel it has great potential for a myriad of users.
