I bought a travel pillowcase and stuffed it with a couple of sweaters, gloves, and a hat for our trip to Italy and Amsterdam in November 2021. Cool weather clothing is bulkier than summer clothing, so this helped to supplement my carryon packing space. I usually use a travel pillow, anyhow, so that was a great option.

Great idea! I'm petite; so I could use it as a back pillow! I've already started to use a small stadium seat at movies. Plus I've recently taken a folding aluminum one-step stool to get into beds at accommodations on road trips. It could fit in a suitcase if necessary. They seem to be making bath tubs easier to get into, with handbars ,etc.

Phred,

The link you’ve provided goes to temu.com but not to the specific product.

Has anyone ordered anything from temu.com?

I’ve heard that the quality of their products is substandard.

It's from Temu; you'll be lucky if the damned thing doesn't blow up and take the plane down with it.

I ordered something from Temu once -- once. Let's just say that China ain't doing you any favors when you order from them.

You get what you pay for

Temu is cheap. It’s basically assume one use is all you get before it falls apart

The one I had was Samsonite, but it doesn’t seem to be available anymore.

Yes Temu is cheap, they direct ship from China. It's like shopping at a dollar store, you are getting what you pay for. But since this shouldn't be considered a heritage purchase, it's just funny money.

The link doesn't work for me either, but I'm assuming it's a neck pillow that you can fill with extra clothes? I've done that in the past (made my own from a neck pillow I already had) and found that even my softer clothes got lumpy and hard after a while, so while it was good for packing purposes, it was not good for comfort. Fortunately, I tried it on a domestic flight so it was only a few hours.
