Home > Consumer Reviews > M-Edge GO! Genuine Leather Kindle Jacket with Hinge (Fits 6" Display, Latest Generation Kindle), Pebbled Navy Blue

My brother in law and my aunt have Kindle 2's and have the Amazon's leather cover, without the two bands on the right side. Having had the benefit of inspecting their purchases, I decided that the two bands are a necessary addition to the cover. With the Amazon cover, the Kindle is like a stiff page inside a three ring binder that is kept in place by two tiny pins in the center of the cover. If you hold the Kindle itself by it's right side, the right side of the Amazon cover will hang awkwardly down a few inches, putting stress on the left side of the Kindle and on the two pins. I think this is probably the cause of the cracks in the side of the Kindle that people have reported with the use of that cover.

The M-Edge GO! Jacket solves this problem with the two bands, not allowing the right side of the Kindle to become detached from the right side of the cover. The bands work perfectly and don't get in the way of any of the controls.

The inside of the jacket is nice, a soft gray fabric-like material that is pleasant to hold. I opted for the blue cover, mainly because I'm tired of the ubiquitous black leather binder look. I have a bunch of black leather binders, briefcases, and things like that associated with work, so the blue cover subtly telegraphs "I'm not work" to me when I see it.

The color of the cover pretty well matched the color that showed on my monitor. It's not bright enough to be girly, and not dark enough to be serious, somewhere in the middle, which is what I was looking for.

This cover is an attractive way to protect your Kindle. The "hook" in feature holds the Kindle securely and the straps are just added insurance that the Kindle remains in place. It is not too thick, nicely padded, and very well made and for the price; making a second color a very affordable option. I love mine and will be ordering the Marbled Red cover as well.

It took me longer to pick out a cover for my Kindle 2 than to decide to order the Kindle. There were so many to choose from. This cover has several great attributes. It is soft to the touch but sturdy. The blue is a beautiful rich color. I have had this for 6 months now and it still looks new. It is comfortable to hold either fully open like a book, or folded over. I tend to fold it over more often. It does fold over completely flat and becomes the size of the Kindle. There is no exposed spine edge when folded like others I have seen. The inside of the cover provides excellent cushion and protection for the Kindle. The corner tabs and side hinge keep my Kindle firmly in place. I am very happy with this cover. I have taken it on plane trips and carry it everywhere in my purse. It is a constant companion and I look forward to years of use.

The new kindle does not come with a cover, so you have to find one. This is the perfect cover. The kindle is held in and there is no possible way for it to fall out. This cover is very durable and thick so even when dropped nothing can happen to your kindle. Also it comes in many colors! It is very much the perfect kindle cover!

the quality of the ebook jacket is really nice, just i found the color does not quite match with the image in amazon. The color turned out to be a little bit darker than it looks on web. i hope anyone who is looking for a blue jacket should be aware of it.
