One small issue...

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The quality of the case was fine and the material seemed to be good but with the case I purchased, the back of the bottom half did not "clip" onto my MacBook Pro and did not give the feeling of my computer being protected. The top piece of the case, however, clipped into place and felt very secure. At the end of the day, I'm a picky person and for the price tag, did not feel that the item justified the price. It would be nice if Best Buy could get some of the Spigen branded cases for Apple laptops which is what I ultimately ended up going with.
I did not bother to take pictures of the case I purchased but the picture included will give a good indication of what my issue was.

MacBook cover as advertised and useful providing protection from every day use to protect from damage

Keeps my Macbook protected from the slight bangs and nicks of everyday ad agency life, plus it looks sharp without compromise of the Macbook. Great for keeping the shell scratch free and ding free.

It was easy to assemble on the MacBook Pro, I do wish it was slightly more clear, and while it protects from scrapes and small scuffs I’m not sure I’d trust a true drop from table height.

This clear Smartshell case for Mac Pro 14" is the best shell cover I have ever encountered. It doesn't slip out of your hands. It does the job of protecting the Mac with out being seen.

The shell is perfect for taking care of my MacBook Pro that I bought at the Best Buy store. The shell, in addition to taking care of my computer, gives it an elegant finish, revealing the design of the computer itself. Because the shell is clear, it shows the design of my computer, in addition to protecting it.
I recommend it.

Hard case laptop protector looks good. It does not have a screen protector but it protects the outside of the laptops preventing it from scratches

The cover fits snugly on my laptop. The footpads hold it in place, no sliding or slipping. It doesn’t mask the color of the laptop. I’m happy.

I like the case but the corners have cracked really easily. The first one started to crack after about a month or 2 of having it and after that all 4 were eventually cracked.
