OK I Agree June 18, 2009 Howard Butler MD (Lantana, FL United States) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
As was pointed out, my original review, was of the original Cole Haan and I removed it. After looking in more detail, it was obvious this was a different, better cover and upon further review, they no longer sell the piece of garbage I originally bought.
Amazon should refund those of us who bought the original one.
I purchased this version and am happy to say I agree with all the reviews stated here. It is almost the perfect case.
I love the feel, flexibility and stability.
The clip is not as easy to insert (really no big deal) compared to the made for Amazon case, the main reason is because of the increased depth and much better Cole Haan leather.
It would also be nice if there were magnets (no big deal) in the cover to ensure it stayed closed when throwing it into a briefcase.
Overall a great and beautiful case with a great feel that makes the Kindle that much better.
High Quality and Perfect Fit June 18, 2009 rjgsphinx (Marietta, GA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
If you want a better deal get the Kindle 2 cover from Amazon. It protects as well and has the same functionality. It is very adequate.
There are 3 reasons I bought this cover AFTER having the Amazon cover for months.
1. The business card pocket. A very nice addition and I HOPE if I ever leave it sitting somewhere by accident an honest person picks it up.
2. I like high quality leather and prefer Brown coloring. Neither of which describe the Amazon cover.
3. My Dad got one and I saw the differences in quality I referred to in #2.
As you would expect from Cole Haan and at this price, the quality is magnificent.
I highly recommend if you want more than an adequate cover.
An excellent cover for Kindle 2 June 17, 2009 D. Hoyer (Charleston, WV USA) 8 out of 10 found this review helpful
I have taken my Kindle 2 on several overseas trips, using this cover as protection and could only ask for one improvment. First, the cover holds the Kindle securely and the leather is thick enough to protect it when it is in a bag with other electonics. It is lightweight and good looking and will take a fair amount of abuse, while keeping the Kindle 2 pristine. The only thing I would suggest as an improvement is the small pocket on the left inside cover should be redesigned. It appears to be made to hold a business card. Instead, it should be increased in size and moved downward so as to hold tickets and boarding passes and even a passport SECURELY. If this were done, all I would need in my hand as I got on a plane was my Kindle 2 in its Cole Haan cover, as my boarding documents would be there with it. If this were done, this cover would be perfect.
Covering in Elegance June 9, 2009 Mohammad Naciri 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I have been using the Cole-Haan cover since I got my Kindle2. In addition to the protection it provides for kindle, it also offers elegance and finesse to the experience of holding and using Kindle2. It is soft, and resistant. The other day I spilled coffee drops on it and once I cleaned it, it was brand new again.
Beautiful leather cover May 27, 2009 D. M. Reed (Wheat Ridge, CO United States) 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
I had this cover in the original design with straps and had some issues with it not folding back very well and the pocket being huge. These issues have now been addressed. This cover folds back beautifully and the pocket is flush with the case. The cover closes perfectly as well. No longer a problem with it not being flush with the kindle. This cover feels very soft yet sturdy in the hands. It's pricey but if you are interested in spending money on a high quality leather cover this is a great one. Too many covers for the kindle just feel like gadget cases and I wanted something that looked like a leather book cover. This gives me that. I feel like I am reading from an old leatherbound book with this cover. I also feel its very durable and should keep very well. It weighs 7.6 ounces for anyone interested. Its heavier than the amazon cover but feels lighter in my hands. I think that is because it is thicker (without being bulky) so its more comfortable in my hands. As well as having a little ledge for my hands to rest when I read for a long period which the amazon cover doesn't give you.
