## Our verdict

### Reasons to buy

-   Can be used as a camera cube and as a backpack. The backpack is collapsible to the camera cube.
-   The camera cube is truly functional as the divider which is customizable and protected.
-   Truly lightweight yet durable and has water resistance properties.

### Things to consider

-   The comfort of wearing this bag is mediocre but is pretty decent for a collapsible bag.
-   Has no water bottle pocket.

## What reviewers said

-   "This bag is exactly what I wanted in a bag, and not just a camera bag, this works as any kind of bag. When not taking my camera with me, I can use the camera compartment for snacks or all sorts of things. I have been using it since the first hour received it and have loved it since."
-   "Love it! Went to San Juan islands with my Sony camera 2 lenses, charger. Had camera protected for hiking and room for rain gear binoculars and some essentials! Great job designing. And the weight distribution was excellent."
-   "Great companion to the McKinnon Camera Backpack. Mr. McKinnon knows exactly what we need and it’s evident in the design of this bag. The Cube Pack is very multifunctional."
