Fits too tight, not the best quality

I really wanted to love this case because the color is beautiful, but the fit and quality is off, unlike the other Speck cases I own. The upper case was SO tight that I was almost afraid of damaging my MacBook while getting the case on/off. Also, the "NEW" case I picked up in store had so many scratches everywhere that it looked used. I returned the case for the Speck Presidio Clear.

Not a bad case overall though I’m not sure how much protection it really offers other than minor scratches.

Cute for design but does not protect laptop. Only recommend for style.

Purchased for s/o’s MacBook Air since she liked the color. After 4 months of use it has some decent sized chips and cracks, that being said it probably wouldn’t fair well with a legit drop. Save yourself the tears and repair costs by just buying a nicer Presidio series case.

I loved this protective cover for my MAC when I bought it 6 months ago. I treat my MAC with care so it concerns me that after 6 months with this protective cover that it cracked with a piece coming off at the corner.

Personally don't see it as useful, it seems cheap and I could get something on amazon for cheaper.

The bottom part of the cover fit well but the top part was too tight to fit correctly.

The unit simply wouldn't attach to my laptop and had to return it. I'm not sure why as this was supposed to be for the exact model of computer I own.

Disappointed

My laptop sleeve broke so I decided to give this a try. At first I was extremely happy with my purchase but not even two months went by before I noticed pieces randomly breaking off and a huge crack on the bottom. While it does protect my actual laptop from scratches and such, the product itself brakes easily and is cheap for the amount of money I paid.

I got my brand new MacBook Air this year and I put on my case and I thought it was very pretty and a good fit. I noticed I half of the case didn't pop on the laptop securely enough so I tried to take off the case and put it back to fix it. I've spent an hour trying to get off my Case and my fingers are all red and my nails have chipped. I don't know how I'm going to get this off.
