ZOMAKE Lightweight Packable Backpack 30L, Foldable Hiking Backpacks Water Resistant Compact Folding Daypack for Travel(Yellow)

Wish I had this sooner. You can fit so much in this and LOVE that it easily folds into itself when not in use. No problem using as personal item flying Frontier Air. Great quality. Lots of compartments.

Listen, this is the bag you are looking for. This little fella is a powerhouse. Sturdy and lightweight, the ONLY item I have ever been able to successfully refold into its original shape. The amount of storage is incomprehensible and the zippers are sturdy and smooth. It’s waterproof, spill proof, and I’m willing to bet could probably be used as a parachute. It’s not bulky or heavy and yet somehow this gem is solid. Functional and dare I say has a great design. Did I mention this is my new favorite bag and my whole family wanted to carry it- that has never happened before. This has exceeded every expectation I had (and to be very transparent I had my reservations) This is the most lightweight, durable, functional and reliable not to mention comfortable (think 70% humidity and a 104 degree Fahrenheit heat index for 3 out of 6 days) This bag didn’t trap heat or give anyone swamp back! I don’t know if they have access to unicorn hair brushes and weave the material from that or what kind of magical material is so sturdy and yet breathable and waterproof- I’m just here to say this bag is THE BEST and ONLY one we will be using henceforth for hiking, camping, kayaking, theme park visits, and anything else we may need to haul any kind of jazz with us. Airport security remarked on four separate occasions the bag was awesome. What kind of bag is this? It was a nice exchange in a typically ugh kind of situation. I was asked to write the bag name down on a post it note and in a notebook for two out of four of the employees.

Nice compact backpack for a good price.

This is a great backpack. I expected cheap, thin materials and that's not what I got. It's well made and the stitching is excellent. This is a great pack to carry with you on vacation or to keep in the car. I wanted to get a pack I could leave in the car for impromptu hiking and other events, like farmer's market, etc. and this pack fills that need well.It's a good size, has a lot of storage, and it seems waterproof enough for most uses. I don't know how well it would stand up to rigorous daily use, but as a bag to keep in a car or take with you on vacation, it's great. This is a daypack that should meet those needs.

Awesome backpack. Good size. Light weight. Holds a good amount of stuff. Makes traveling easy.

5 stars because it did what I needed it to do -- take up little space in my suitcase, and not add much extra weight, but work as a piece of checked luggage at the end of my travels. Used it to pack laundry and other non-breakable things. I wouldn't have gotten my suitcase closed otherwise.I worried that it might be too small to check, but the counter agent said it was fine, just asked me to try to tie the ends of the straps so they wouldn't get caught on anything. It came off the baggage carousel looking fine, and once it was empty, I was happy to find that I was able to re-fold it to a reasonable facsimile of how it was when I got it. No idea how it would stand up to heavy use, but for my purposes, it was perfect.

Price is good, somewhat water resistance, bright color, big enough space to put stuff for day hike, can fold up into a pouch. So fsr I love it

After testing the ZOMAKE Lightweight Packable Backpack for several trips, I can offer a balanced perspective on this budget-friendly travel accessory.## Practicality & DesignThe backpack delivers on its primary promise of being extremely lightweight and packable. It folds down impressively small, making it convenient to tuck into luggage as a backup bag for souvenirs or day trips. The multiple compartments provide decent organization options, and the capacity is sufficient for carrying essentials during sightseeing or short hikes.## Material & Build Quality ConcernsWhere this backpack falls short is in the material quality. The fabric has a noticeably cheap appearance and feel that doesn't inspire confidence in its long-term durability. There's a significant discrepancy between the vibrant, premium-looking colors shown in product images and the actual muted tones of the physical product. This misrepresentation is disappointing and something potential buyers should be aware of.## Functionality Trade-offsThe lightweight design comes with expected compromises. The thin straps lack proper padding, which becomes uncomfortable during extended wear, especially with heavier loads. The zippers function adequately but don't glide smoothly and give the impression they might fail with regular use.## Value AssessmentFor its price point, the ZOMAKE backpack serves its purpose as an occasional use, supplementary bag. It's perfectly adequate for light duty and traveling scenarios where you need a temporary extra bag. However, if you're seeking a reliable everyday backpack or something that looks more polished, you may want to invest in a higher-quality option.## VerdictThis is a serviceable budget option that prioritizes convenience and packability over aesthetics and durability. If your expectations align with the price point and you need a simple backup bag for occasional use, it will serve you adequately despite its shortcomings.
