    This was the smartest purchase I've made in a very long time. Within a day of putting this on the new iPad i got my son- who is special needs btw- he pushed the iPad on the floor- it was on carpet but i was very thankful that the OtterBox was on the iPad to protect it. I never had an OtterBox case before on any devices but i know people that have and they've been recommended which is why i got it, and I'm very thankful that I did.

    I think it’s heavy and I needed to go back and have a Best Buy employee help me put the iPad in this. Also, not a huge deal but I didn’t realize that it doesn’t have anything that covers the screen.

    My husband can be very rough on his electronics, especially his phone so when I purchased his iPad, I knew that I had to get something that was durable and also propped up his iPad and this did exactly that! This is a must have if you want to keep your iPad safe And free from scratches and costly expenses to get it fixed!!

    OtterBox offers the best protection. The stand works but would be better if it was adjustable so that the position was more reclined.
