Pop Up Soft Trunk

Pros: We LOVE this trunk. It has so many pockets, compartments you can truly LIVE out of this fabulous piece! It folds down FLAT for easy storage between uses. Fabric is very sturdy...built for abuse the 8 yr old boy camper can provide!

Cons: NONE!

Comments: IF I was looking for an addition to this already "over the top" trunk, I would add a strip of hard plasti/rubber to the bottom sides...for the camp stickers. I know...it's petty but they do LOVE their camp stickers.

EveryThingSummerCamp.com Response: We appreciate your review and your suggestion. We had originally intended to add plastic to the bottom of our Pop Up Soft Trunk however it would cause the price to be too high.

Serves it's purpose

Pros: This is the biggest most functional suitcase we have ever owned. My kids go to summer camp 2-3 weeks out of the summer. This suitcase holds everything they need, including bedding, pillow, shoes, you name it. It also keeps it organized so that they can find everything.

Cons: After one use, some stiching came loose by the pull out handle. I would have given it a 5 otherwise.

EveryThingSummerCamp.com Response: We contacted this customer regarding the stitching on the trunk. We were able to resolve the issue with the customer.

We encourage our customers to contact us at 1-800-535-2057 if they ever run into a problem where a product is not satisfactory.

answer to prayer

Pros: the light for seeing in the trunk at night was a plus.we also love the wet storage compartment.It also has so much room that our camper could take home all the stuff she made at camp as well.

Cons: we wish that the trunk had wheels on both ends and the handle came up like a wagon. this way on rough terrain it would still be easy to roll.I don't think this trunk could have any cons.

Comments: our family was trying to get our camper organized for camp. this is our 3rd year sending our daughter to camp hochelaga in vt.we were desparate to find a way that all things that left home would come back and this was the answer to our prayers.We even didn't get nasty wet clothes mixed in with the dry ones this year thanks to the compartment for wet stuff.

The Best!

Pros: So much room! and we sent our little one to camp for 3 weeks. All the pockets were wonderful to hold the extras. Also loved how easy it is to move....there are handles on the side or U can use the easy popout handle and wheels to roll along in any direction.
This made going to camp a breeze.
My daughter will be home soon and then it will be easy to store 2!!!

Cons: We found that when we got to camp we could not put this where it would be stepped on like the hard trunks....like if they have it where they get up and down from the top bunk.
The solution was easy though.....we had her trunk in a place against the wall where it would not be stepped on and discussed it with my daughter's couselors...they were fine with it.

Comments: I just love the trunk.....you know when you've made a good purchase that exceeds its expectations!~)

Great trunk for camp

Pros: Very large trunk held all of my daughter's supplies for camp. Like the fact that it will fold flat for storage and love all the pockets on the sides. My daughter enjoyed the area for pictures and the fact that it came with a light. I liked the pocket for wet things to keep them seperate from the rest of the supplies.

Cons: When I received the trunk it was difficult to get the trunk to stay in the open position. Once the wire frame was popped into place it seemed to work fine.

Comments: Camp trunk will come home from camp in two days. I will see how well it worked.

Pop up Footlocker

Pros: I loved this item when I bought it for my son to go to the National Boy Scout Jamboree. So much so that bought myself one for our vacation. It's the perfect size requirement for the airline we chose.

Cons: The pockets on the outside are wonderful and roomy, BUT there is no security feature so they were useless on the cruise and airplane flight.

Comments: I highly recommend this item. It is well made and roomy.
