Amazing durable case BUY IT!
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchase mine for a 13 inch MacBook Pro. I admit I am rough on my laptop and that’s why I bought it. It has been a lifesaver. The Thule takes a licking and keeps on ticking. I’m impressed and you will be too. If there is a minor drawback, it’s tough to get on and I took it back to Best Buy where I bought it and they installed it for free. The first pic is the front and the second is the back. I also like the levelers on the back, especially for air travel.

Doesn't meet Thule standards
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You'd think that a product by Thule would be as durable as the roof racks but it's not. The frame cracked within the first two weeks I put it on my MacBook.. The clear plastic film cover always pops up so I'm constantly pushing in back down and it snaps back in and lays flat. And when opening MacBook by the front clasp, the bumper case pops off and I have to snap it back on. Very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Design, Protection

Love this case
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't know Thule made MacBook cases but I really love the look and feel of this case. It seems to add solid protection without a lot of extra bulk. It also adds some really nice grip for taking my MacBook in and out of my backpack. If you are looking for added protection and really nice looking case I would highly recommend it.

You get what you paid for...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this case to protect my Macbook. This was the most protective case that's available to date and it does the job. The Macbook has been knocked over many times and was saved by this case without any damages. For a rugged case, I was surprise at how slim it was. I gave this 4 star due to the difficulty of installing it (took several trys to match up all the pieces) and the cost.

Use Protection
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great protection for my 13" MacBook with retina. I dislike corner dings, scratches or other things that may happen to any of my portables, so I chose the Thule case. It's not my everyday machine, but I use it often for work as a BYOD and it goes in and my laptop frequently The protective film prevents my macbook from getting scratched. It was a chore installing the case, but fine once everything clicked in place.

Solid protection for my MacBook
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Thule bumper case was easy to set up, fits well and I feel confident that it will offer good protection for my MacBook in the event of a short drop or hard bump. It is not bulky for the amount of protection and doesn't add much weight, which I appreciate as well.

Good protective case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish they had these when I originally bought my computer so my Macbook screen was still fully functional. The case is very protective with the rubber covering the inside and the protective hard shell on the outside. It also comes with scratch protectors that are suppose to align and fit within the case, but only one of mine fit correctly so hopefully that isn't the case for anyone else. It is a great case, but the only complaint I have about it is its somewhat bulky on the bottom half and gets in the way of the plugging into the ports. I have to remove the bottom portion for my HDMI cable to actually fit the port and stay connected. I personally recommend it for anyone getting a new Macbook Pro.

Q: Questionwith this attached will it fit into the Thule Gauntlet attach case or the Gauntlet sleeve? I purchased a 13 inch Macbook pro retna.
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer No it will not fit in the Thule Gauntlet case if you have this bumper case installed! I listened to the other user's answers and was disappointed when I got home. The bumper case makes it too thick to fit inside the sleeve. Save the trouble and get the bumper case or get the gauntlet sleeve with a speck thin hard case.
