 Case Closed!!! May 7, 2008

This product corrects the design flaws of the original Amazon Kindle case (no velcro workarounds needed with this one!) and adds an element of luxury with its beautiful leather (mine is red). It also offers a larger ledge/finger rest which I find more comfortable than the original. There is an elastic and leather band to hold even the top right corner in place -- very easy access to the on/off & wireless switches. I personally don't care for the feel of suede, so the case that comes with the Kindle would never have worked for me. The Kindle is absolutely secure and protected by this case -- no slippage at all during use and kept safe from falling out of the case while in transit by the band incorporated into the cover. Highly recommended!
Well designed, beautiful quality July 31, 2008

I just got my red leather M-edge cover yesterday and am loving it! The color is rich and gorgeous, the Kindle fits perfectly and securely into the cover, while still allowing access to the back buttons. The stitching is beautifully done.
When folded backwards, the cover provides a "ledge" on the left side which is substantial enough (more so than the original Kindle cover) to allow easy grasping and prevents any accidental hitting of the "next" button on the Kindle. I even attach my Mighty Bright booklight to this ledge, so it doesn't "hurt" the beautiful leather on the front.
It has five pockets for storing things: two for SD cards, plus two for business or credit cards, and one larger pocket (CD size). There is also a pen-holder.
The leather also has a beautiful smell. Overall it's the most beautiful book cover I've ever had, and it makes the Kindle look even more sleek and stylin' than before, if that is possible.
I'm really enjoying the rich red color, and must say it looks way more gorgeous in real life than the online pictures show.
After 5 months of use . . . . . . . . September 3, 2008

I purchased this cover in April and had I written this review at that time I would have given the product 5 stars on its cosmetic value alone. Instead I decided to wait and review it on all aspects of its use and I am still giving it 5 stars.
PROS:
As I said the first thing we notice is the leather is beautiful, soft, well put together and easy to spot as the red is vibrant.
The pockets and pen/pencil holders are so handy. I keep a notepad in the large pocket which I think also helps with padding. It also has 2 small pockets making room for my SD cards.
I believe it is fairly well padded to protect the Kindle.
I have rheumatoid arthritis and it is comfortable and easy to hold and operate (easy in and out of the case) - and that is saying a great deal.
The cover is designed to hold the Kindle so that it is snug and secure without interfering with any functionality.
I think it is fairly priced.
Before I give you the CONS:
I want to say that I am very careful with my Kindle and the case, as to me, it is priceless so wear and tear is minimal. However, I do use it daily, I carry it in my purse everywhere I go so please know that it is used a great deal.
CONS:
I am finding the thread is coming loose around the area the tab goes in. In fact about an inch was come out. That is the only place it is happening so it's probably a rare occurrence. Otherwise the stitching is beautiful and tight.
I am finding the Spine of the cover becoming a little wobbly. In fairness to the manufacturer I don't know if that could ever be eliminated as constant use would break anything down.
That's it. The only 2 problems I have found after 5 months of constant use. I am even happier with the product than I was on the day I received it as it has proven to be more than just a pretty face. I have already gotten my moneys worth and now it is a gift. I would recommend one to my best friends or family and I would give it as a gift and never worry it wouldn't be enjoyed.
Red Kindle cover May 19, 2008
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I bought myself this book cover for Mother's Day and I just love it. The way it sticks out on the right side is great for holding the kindle and less pages turned in error. I also love the way it looks, with the red I can find it anywhere. I took the gray foam rubber sheet that came with the packing and trimmed it to fit in the front pocket for more protection for my Kindle screen. The only thing I dont care for is that tha tab gets in the way. I tuck it under when I read but I am sure that after awhile it won't be good for it. By the time it wears out, I'm sure that someone will come out with a better solution. The way it holds the kindle in place is wonderful and you don't have to worry about it falling out, I would definitely buy the cover again!
Much Better Than The Original October 18, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I purchased this book cover after reading the many reviews about it. Like another person, I am also one who likes to read laying down, and I also encountered the problem of my Kindle falling out of the cover that came with it. And let me tell you, this cover is MUCH better. First of all, like a previous reviewer said, the color is not the bright Christmas red like in the picture....it is a very nice shade of dark red. The one big plus for me is that my Kindle doesn't fall out of this cover when I am reading laying down, since there are supports on all 4 corners. (The support on the upper right hand corner is elastic, so it is easy to get to the on-off and Whispernet switches) It is also much thicker than the cover that came with the Kindle, so it provides much better protection. Also, when folding the cover back during reading, there is much more room on the sides of the Kindles, so I find I am not accidentally pressing the next or previous page buttons. There is also enough room on the left hand side to attach a reading light without damaging the leather. Another plus are the pockets inside the cover and the pen holder. There are 2 pockets for your SD cards, as well as pockets for other things, like business cards. I keep a small notepad in the larger one. All in all, this cover is 100% better than the one that comes with the Kindle, and is very much worth the investment. You can't go wrong with this cover. Oh, one other thing that I love about this cover....the smell of the leather. lol
