    A Best Buy store rep recommended this case when I bought my iPad. The price is inexpensive, and the adjustability is great. It works great on flight tray tables and at home. On one of my flights a passenger liked my case so much, he even asked where I got it from.

    Case also has a clasp which offers an extra layer of protection when not in use. The transparent back allows me to keep my iPad safe while showcasing its beauty. The only drawback is I have to angle the front cover away while taking photos.

    The cover works well as a tilted support for the ipad. It woks well with the hard case we purchased for the ipad, clicking securely to the case. It has protected the screen from my son's carelessness several times, while proving functional and pretty nice looking for a cover.

    I bought this Speck case for my new ipad because used a Speck case before on an ipod mini and it was so durable and a great price. This ipad case can be used as a stand, which is so comfortable, or flat. Plus, it has a handsome appearance. I also love the secure closure snap.

    Bought this to go with my daughter's new Gold iPad. The rose gold color shows through the clear polycarbonate case, which complements the steel blue color of the folio case. I thought the price was too high, but I liked this case the best. I like the clasp feature also.

    Got this on sale Black Friday. I liked everything about it and I wanted to buy it even before I found out it was on sale so the $ was a plus. The only thing I wish it had was a strap but otherwise gr8 product.

    Overall product is good quality. The clear plastic clip on the side seems a little cheap. After using the product...it was definitely overpriced. Wait until it goes on sale or you have Best Buy Rewards to use on it.

    We bought this case for our iPad and it is perfect. It folds back so that the flap doesn't interfere with using the tablet for reading. I know it isn't one of those rugged cases but it seems to slow the fall of the tablet down when you drop it.

    We have had this case for a while and it has held up with 3 kiddos and being dropped many times. It took a little bit of time to figure out how to use it as a stand though. Good case and quality for the price.

    I really like the simple design of this case - it’s sleek, not bulky at all. I do wish it was a little sturdier. But I don’t plan on being rough on my iPad, so I think it will be just fine for my purposes.

    I gave this case to my wife along with a new iPad as a present and it seems like it should last for a while. I could have got a case cheaper online but to actually see the cases and if they will last for a while was worth the higher price.

    I wish most tablets were designed to handle abuse, but they aren't,and this is why a product this one is important to have. It holds my iPad firmly, and doesn't interfere with the function of the device.

    Just what I was looking for. Offers several positions so you can watch tv/movies or be in a meeting. This is my second purchase of this cover. The other one held up great, but it somehow got lost in my last move.

    Bought my wife a new ipad and needed a case that can protect against the elements of everyday life and can hold up well when put into a back pack. It's very durable and slim all at the same time. Great buy.

    This is for my son’s iPad. It works well. I tried ordering a couple of different ones from amazon and got fed up with the misleading titles that won’t fit my iPad correctly. This is sold for the price.

    Bumper-style case protects against damage from drops—important, because drops happen. Also can be folded to support the iPad and hold it at an easy-to-see/use angle.

    So far this has been a great case - it offers protection for the back as well as the screen, I have had no issues so far. It's a little pricey but I am a firm believer in you get what you pay for - for me this is a win-win.

    Really a great upgrade from my old cover, which only protected the front screen. This one protects the front, and also the back. They say it can withstand drops up to 4 feet. I am pleased with how sturdy it is.

    The case is good and at a low enough price. The only problem I have is the the volume control button cut-out is in a position that hits the volume down button at times.
