GoToobs are without a doubt my favorite travel accessory.
I use the 1.25 oz GoToobs for backpacking and travel as well as using dedicated GoToobs (separated by color) for salad dressings in packed lunches. I also use the 3 oz GoToobs for travel. In approximately 200,000 miles, five countries and several week-long backpacking trips I've only experienced one minor incidence of leakage. Since then I've been careful to wipe the rim, lid and threads after refilling and have bagged the tubes as extra insurance. However, wiping the rim, inside of the lid and the threads appears to be all that is necessary to prevent leakage. I do recommend bagging all containers of liquids for backpacking and checked luggage.
I have tried the 2 oz GoToobs but don't care for them because those have suction cups on them which don't work well for me and make it difficult to get all of the product out when using them for gels.
I really want to love these things. Form, feel, and function are perfect. But dangit! They leak.I filled 5 bottles with various toiletry liquids of varying vicosity and placed them in a clear plastic toiletry case. I haven't yet taken them on a trip or anything just left it under the sink for a quick grab. Checked on them some time later and there is a non-trivial amount of liquid floating around in the case outside of the bottles. Not good.3 stars still because it's almost there and it really is a sweet item. They need to fix it though like add a gasket or something. Do a viscosity leak test before using these things.

I travel a lot and I buy a lot of different expensive high-quality lotions but I don't want to carry heavy bottles of lotions with me. I can buy containers at any walgreen's, target or walmart but their openings are not wide enough for me to fill them and they're not as easy to handle as humangear gotoobs. The picture doesn't do them justice. They just look like hard plastic in the pic but when you hold them, they're like thick but VERY soft/flexible/cushiony, grippable, light squeezable, rubber tubes making it easier for you to squeeze out OR SQUEEZE IN any lotion. Before I ever saw these containers, I would use the wide mouth hard plastic or glass jars - example of what i'm talking about is similar to Nalgene PC Clear Jar or...Read more
