Sometimes our bags can seem like a black hole where things just disappear...or come out inexplicably tangled every single time (I'm looking at you, headphones).

If you're fed up with knotty cables and cords, let me introduce you to this genius Grid-It organizer by Cocoon — it'll keep everything in place so items don't tumble around in your bag.

The rubberized woven elastic bands are stretchy, to accommodate items of any size, and there's a zippered compartment in the back for stashing more items. It's super versatile because you can configure it however you like.

People actually swear by this thing — it has over 1,200 reviews on Amazon and a 4.4-star rating! In other words, it's pretty darn awesome.

"Not sure how I got along without this. As a nerd with all kinds of cords and accessories, this is so much better than every pocket and zipper in my backpack or any other organizer I have ever used. The zip pocket on the back is perfect for things like stamps, a checkbook, or other small pieces of paper that get lost or crumpled elsewhere. The thing that makes this so wonderful is the rubberized elastic grid. It keeps things from slipping around. And when I have to rotate items in or out, it's got so many options I can always find a way to get everything in. This is a truly well-designed product that I would put in my top 20 essential things for a modern human to buy." —The Chief

I mean, just look at these satisfying before-and-after photos!

"I don’t know how I’ve lived my entire adult life without this. Amazing! My favorite purchase as of lately. My before-and-after pictures speak for themselves." —Chanita S.

You'll be able to see all your essentials at a glance and grab what you need without digging around.

"I travel for a living as a senior technology consultant and constantly struggled to keep all the gear and cords in order for my phone, Wi-Fi device, extra mouse, Bluetooth, etc. I LOVE the Grid-It! Now all of my cords are in one place, clearly visible, and easy to keep in order. I could have used this years ago." —Pdxpoppadaddy

The more you load it up, the tighter the grip, so nothing slips out.

"Love this organizer. Helps me keep everything in order and nothing slides out. They are super secure because the bands are so tight. I love this, helps me get rid of pouches and makes everything in my bag super easy to find. The back zippered area doubles as a pencil case for me. I’ll be purchasing more in the future." —Denisse Gonzalez

This handy little thing is also perfect for traveling, as it can consolidate items and free up space in your bag to fit even more stuff...

amazon.com

"I'm an IT consultant and often on the road for work. When I first started consulting, I would simply shove all my cords, chargers, adapters, Chromecast, etc., into my travel bag. Several times I would forget items or even worse leave them in a hotel room because I couldn't quickly tell if I packed an item. I tried several other organizers including several cases and had similar problems. Grid-ITs are a great solution for the frequent traveler. You can simply glance at them to make sure you have everything you need before you leave a location. I use one for my most common travel items, chargers, cables, etc., and a second one when I visit a new client that includes adapters mouse, etc. I've not misplaced a single item since I started using them." —Cory L

...especially since its thin profile makes it easy to insert into any bag.

"This product is the best at keeping my backpack organized. I was always losing the little things to the bottom of the bag, and I was worried about my mouse dropping to the bottom and getting broken. Well, it's a problem no more! I loved this so much, I had to go buy other ones for different bags." —Leah

There's even a pocket in the back for stashing more stuff, like some extra some pens or even a small tablet.

amazon.com

"Shockingly, although very tight and if I'm not careful I can break the zipper, it fits my Nexus 7 tablet that's in a case (I'm sure it'll fit much better without the case). With that, I'm able to put all my loose carry-on electronic items onto the Grid-It along with my phone, watch, and tablet for security at the airport instead of removing everything off of me and then putting it back on." —James Minh Tran

And bonus: It's not just for cables and gadgets!

amazon.com

"I'm so glad I stumbled upon this. I literally have hundreds of drill bits lying around and didn't have an efficient and easy way to organize and carry them until now. This organizer helped me to put them all together, and it's flat enough to be easily stored and carried. Love it!" —Patrick McCurdy

Get it from Amazon for $15.97+ for a large size (also available in sizes small, medium, extra large, and in nine colors).

Go forth and live your most organized life!
