I am so glad we decided to purchase the pop-up soft trunk for my 7yo daughter for camp this year! It made packing all of her things so easy (and fun!), there was a ton of space for ALL the things she needed in one place and pockets and nooks to help keep her organized. Plus I love that it can pop open and stay open. The trunk is well made and sturdy, and she can use it for years to come. I highly recommend it as a less expensive alternative to the hard trunk that functioned just as well for our camper!
