Needed a cover for my Macbook Pro and saw this item at local BB for 50% off. Bought it and it works well (snaps on the MBP). Now I won't have to worry about any scratches or dirty surfaces. It's not heavy as it's thin plastic so it won't really add any weight to the MB.

Like I said it works well, and it looks great. I love the rubber feet on the bottom to stick to surfaces and it breathes well

It's a nice looking case and feel nice to the touch. If you have a decal on the Apple logo you will definitely be able to see through it to see what you have. You can unfortunately see finger prints and such on the case which ruins the appearance of the cases sleek design. It can be cleaned but it's pretty difficult to get the smudges off. It does provide easy access to all the ports although if you have an HDMI plugged in you can't fully close the laptop with the case on. This seems to be a problem with ALL cases like these but I am getting cracks on the corners of the case. In not sure what causes it but I'm sure it's going to start falling apart soon. I would recommend to anyone who is looking for temporary protection.

I would always recommend purchasing Apple accessories for Apple products. I bought this case because of the price $24.99. A compatible Apple case was double that amount. The case does what it says it will...protect your Macbook. It has a sleek design and rubber feet to prevent it from moving on slick surfaces. It fits snuggly and is fairly easy to put on and to remove. You cab't beat it for the price!

Very thin, lightweight, yet protective. Fit is excellent, with all cutouts very well aligned. Attaches firmly with no wobble or noise. Maybe the only downside is it is available in neutral grey, but for me that was a positive.

Protection PLUS!

I say protection plus because of the good looks. The matte translucent finish is beautiful! The dark silver over silver is perfect. It will show fingerprints just as the Mac Book Pro screen does if you handle it with any kind of substance on your fingers such as natural body oil or sweaty/damp palms. The soft rubber feet keep my dining room table safe and hold the notebook in place. Snaps on and off fairly easily. I looked at different brand covers, most were glossy, and saw this on the clearance rack for $15 less! I couldn't understand why someone would pay more for an identical cover that didn't look as good! Hey, what do I know? It was on clearance. I'm going back to buy another!

Honestly I bought this because it had this great discount so I decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did... I just love the feel of it. And looks great too. I just wish they had more color options

The case is strong and fits the Macbook perfectly and does not weigh much as well. Just got it couple days back so still waiting on to see how long will it endure the day to day handling

Great cover, gives a great deal of protection while still allowing your machine to breathe. I enjoy that the case is not completely transparent or solid but a nice frost somewhere in the middle. I would definitely recommend to anyone with art they would still like to be able to see without letting the whole world in on what exactly is on your laptop without getting really close.

The case comes in multiple colors for whatever you feel like choosing and it just snaps right onto the laptop. Super Easy. No more scratches, unless you scratch the surface next to the keyboard/trackpad like I did later the same day. There's always some place that isn't protected but it covers a large area of the laptop.

I got this for my daughters MacBook Pro 13. The fit is nice.. not as sleek as some other thinner covers or skins, but at least the edges and corners are protected. This will not fit the latest 16 MacBook Pros since those have a thinner profile. BB have these for a great price.. so we'll worth it.

Case fits great, easy to install. Protects the Mac book and has a nice feel to it but shows finger prints so if that's an OCD thing for you go another route.
Overall, great purchase.

I've had this case a few weeks and so far, so good. It snapped on easily and fits perfectly. It does a good job protecting the computer from scratches. This is not a heavy duty case. The laptop doesn't travel much so I generally don't have to worry about protecting against actual damage (knock on wood). Only downside is that after a couple weeks it starts to show finger prints very clearly. Other reviewers stated this, but honestly I didn't care about that and still don't. Good case that looks and feels good. Does a good job protecting against scratches. Please note I bought it extremely cheap on best buy deal of the day + other forms of discounts. I don't think I'd pay full price for it, but I would buy again on discount.
