For those contemplating a getaway to escape the dreariness, this time of year is perfect for picking up some new luggage. One backpack from Dunelm is causing a stir amongst shoppers, accumulating numerous five-star reviews from travellers looking for a compact carry-on option.
The Rock Luggage Cabin Backpack has been carefully crafted to fit neatly beneath the seat, making it a superb option for frequent flyers and those who like to travel light. With dimensions of 40 x 25 x 20cm, travellers have been using the backpack on flights with budget carriers including Ryanair and easyJet.
Currently available for £24, savvy shoppers can reduce the cost by combining offers through the money-saving website TopCashback. The platform is currently providing new members with a £15 welcome bonus when spending £15 or more at selected retailers, including Dunelm.
New TopCashback members who are also new to Dunelm can obtain the item for £8.58 after cashback, whilst those new to TopCashback but with an existing Dunelm account can buy it for £8.79 after cashback. Customers can register with TopCashback via the website.
The backpack is constructed from robust high-density polyester, and the lightweight design makes it a practical option when travelling. Given its modern styling, it could prove equally useful for the daily commute, school, college or visits to the gym, reports the Mirror.
Snap up the highly rated backpack that’s “perfect for Ryanair”
Available in a choice of colours, the bag has been praised by travellers on budget airlines.
The bag also features two internal zip pockets for bits and bobs, plus a slip-in pocket and an external zippered section. Compression straps help keep everything compact and stop your belongings from moving about during your journey.
The backpack comes in black, green, navy or purple, giving travellers a good choice of colours. It can be clipped onto other luggage for convenience, and its wide-shell opening makes packing a doddle.
If the Rock Luggage Cabin Backpack doesn’t quite fit the bill, another cabin bag from Amazon has proved a winner with travellers. The Hayayu Cabin Bag is currently on offer at £13.99 and boasts over 5,000 glowing reviews. The backpack looks similar but is slightly bigger in size, which might cause issues for Ryanair flyers.
Over at Next, the Cabin Max Metz Underseat Bag is also proving popular amongst passengers keen to pack light. Coming in various colours, this option includes padded shoulder straps, a handy carry handle and additional pockets.
For those after something with a bit more room, the Rock Backpack is also available in a medium size, measuring 45 x 36 x 20cm. Priced at £26 at full cost, the larger capacity carry-on would be ideal for airlines with more generous baggage allowances.
Customers who’ve already picked up the Rock Backpack from Dunelm have awarded it an outstanding 4.9 out of five-star rating. One purchaser commented: “Purchased 2 of these as dimensions fit in with easyJet’s underseat bags, which are free to take on board. Excellent bags, with 2 inner zip and 1 slide-in pockets and an outer zipped pocket too. I fitted more stuff in than I expected and it has 2 carry handles plus the ruckkie straps so it’s very adaptable. Highly recommend.”
A second reviewer remarked: “Bought this cabin bag to conform to Ryanair spec. It’s a lovely bag, very well made, loads of room inside, with separate compartments.”
Another said: “This bag is a perfect size for carry-on luggage, fits perfectly under the seat in front of you. It’s compact, but with its individual compartments, it’s amazing what you can get in it. Definitely the best hand luggage bag I’ve bought, especially if your flying with Ryanair.”
However, one purchaser did raise some issues, observing: “Used on two flights and strap has already come away from fabric, it’s not even a carrying strap.”
Another five-star assessment highlighted the backpack’s adaptability, stating: “A roomy backpack that carries everything you need for a few days or a week away. Amazing space and very comfortable on the shoulders. Makes travelling with carry-on luggage only feel like a breeze.”
