Hey there DrBK,
We certainly understand that volume control would be essential for your wife's iPhone 7! We're so sorry to hear that she is having trouble accessing the proper buttons with the Defender. This is odd, since we engineer the cases to allow full functionality of the device. We would love to take a closer look to see if we can help! Please feel free to call our handy Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll find a quick fix for this!
Sincerely, OtterBox Customer Service Team

Hi Tedd,
We appreciate your feedback! We’re glad that this Defender case is taking care of your iPhone 7 but we’re sorry that it is a bit too bulky for your needs. Perhaps you would be more interested in our Commuter or Symmetry case as they are both slimmer than the Defender. Check out the links below for more information on those OtterBox products.
Of course, if you ever have any OtterBox questions please feel free to give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269. We are happy to help!

Hi Angie,
Thanks for your feedback! We’re sorry that this Defender is collecting some dirt. We fully understand why this is disappointing and we certainly want to help out! We always suggest cleaning our products using mild soap and water (never with abrasive or corrosive cleaners that may damage the case).
If this doesn’t clear things up, please feel free to give our color-conscious Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269, and we will be happy to help out in any way that we can.

I've had no problems so far with this case. I'm hoping it withstands my daughters rough use. I gave 2 stars because of the prior otterbox I had on her phone. It cracked and also cracked her phone. I don't know why I even bought this brand again just purely out of cost and convenience.
