Customer Reviews
I love this
I ordered this from M-edge and just recently received it and I LOVE it. The book smells like high quality leather and has a nice smooth, soft surface. Because it is real leather, I am sure that it will just get broken in and better with time. I like that it has hooks on the left hand side, just like the Amazon cover, but it also has the closure strap to keep it secure. I kept my Kindle at home before I received the cover, but now I take it everywhere with me. It fits perfectly in the center pocket of my purse and I now have my library with me at all times without the worry of damaging my investment. I would highly recommend getting this.
Bulky!
I purchased this cover and the black Amazon Kindle 2 cover for comparative purposes for my brand new Kindle 2. I was attracted to this cover for the rich red leather, the interior pockets and the additional elastic corners and external closure. I was disappointed since i really wanted to like this cover!! It feels substantial but it is bulky and clumsy. For me, it negates the benefits of having such a sleek electronic reader. I was not impressed with the leather; it is not high quality and bag leather like you find in a Coach handbag for example. They describe it as marbled; it just looks lower quality to me but for the price i did not expect Coach quality. For something handbag quality I recommend the Cole Haan cover (but its $99!); my friend has it and it is beautiful. In sum, if you are ok with carrying something similar in weight and volume to a day planner and absolutely want something with interior pockets I would go with this one. If you want something sleek, simple and light that gives more than adequate protection for less money; go with the Kindle cover. I am returning this and keeping my Kindle cover which is perfect.
A great Kindle 2 case!
Just received this cover today (in purple, but same model), about 3 weeks after ordering from Amazon. Granted, it was ordered before the product was even complete so I was ok with the wait. It is very similar in look and feel to a Dooney and Bourke pocketbook if you are familiar with them. It has a great leather smell, just like a new purse. And the additional room on the binder side (meant for the e-Luminator light - sold separately) gives you a nice place to hold the cover with the Kindle attached.
I love the hinge system, one of the main reasons I bought it. Coming from the K1, the original case Amazon provided was functional but the Kindle always fell out. So when Amazon improved the hinge for the K2, I knew I would only buy a case that had that feature. One word of note, I initially did not "lock" the K2 in the new m-edge case correctly and it almost fell out when I shook it (over a sofa) to test the support. Luckily the two straps on the top right and bottom right held it from falling. Then I discovered I had not closed the hinge enough and made sure the top hinge was securely pushed upwards to "lock it". Installation instructions are not included with the case (weird) but are available from m-edge online. Amazon won't let me post the url, but if you go to the buymedge website you can view the installation intructions.
The look and feel of the case is very professional. I am very happy with this purchase and do not expect to be taking the Kindle out of it very often. The only little issue I have is that the tab is a bit too snug when it needs to be slid into the cover to close. A snap might have been a bit easier. Still not enough of a con to drop the rating. But the tab does tuck away easily so as not to interfere while reading, which is nice.
