      Hi Joann,

      We’re sorry that the Defender is bit too bulky for your comfort level. We do our best to keep our cases as streamlined as possible without sacrificing protection. We do hope that a little bit more material will be worth it after a drop or two and your iPad is safe. Below is a link that will take you to a video that goes over the installation and removal steps, this should help with the removal process. If you have any questions please feel free to give our helpful Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269.

    Purchased this case for my 6 year old who previously only had a tempered glass and a child's case. That wasn't strong enough to ensure his tantrums this case is!

    Overall a very hardy case. I would have rated it a 5, but theres a very small drawback. Need to be careful with removing the charging cable. Frequent use will deteriorate and fray the neck of the charging cable. The case is thick so access to the charging slot is set a little deeper than normal. Other than that, it's a solid case.

    Had to purchase two of these for two work iPads. Both are excellent quality. Directions were easy to follow. Both iPads have been on multiple job sites without issues.

    Don't think my son has put the otterbox to the test yet, which is good. Would have liked to have more colors to choose from though.

    This case is a life saver. I didn’t have to buy a screen protector or anything. You can drop on concrete or asphalt and it want harm your iPad.

    This case is great. We have a son with severe autism (he takes his iPad everywhere, dropping it frequently) and this case works great for his needs. Well done.
