We’re a two Kindle family. I have a Kindle 1 and my wife has a Kindle 2. We bought this jacket when we bought her Kindle since they don’t come with a jacket anymore (which is fine because the included Amazon jacket isn’t all that great).

This jacket flips up and over rather than to the left like a book. I personally prefer a jacket that opens like a book because it gives your fingers more room to rest (and on the Kindle 1 that’s a big deal because you’ll be going forward and backwards if you’re not extra careful). That’s not such a big deal with the Kindle 2.

All-in-all, for the price, it’s a nice cover. It may not be real leather, but it looks very good.

Love my Kindle and needed to protect it from the everyday use it gets. Didn’t want to spend too much on it and finally settled on this one. Couldn’t be happier with it. I love that it flips up to open and i can prop it up if i want to. I like that the little flaps helps keep it secure. The flap was a little nuisance when i wasn’t using it to keep the kindle propped up but i eventually figured out i can tuck it in so no worries there. This is a must if you want to get a cover for the Kindle but don’t want to pay too much!

I hadn’t cosidered that a book cover should function like a book not like a stand. So I do not like the way this jacket opens and fold at the top and perfer a side fold version. The color and the leather did meet expectation but function was not pleasing.

I purchased the hinged version of the M-edge. It is well constructed and made from good quality leather (it even has a rich leather smell). It is secured by two metal clips and two straps, so the Kindle is unlikely to fall out accidentally. The color is a bit loud, but that will make it easier to find when I misplace it. The M-edge is an excellent accessory for a wonderful product.

very bad shipping, I ordered along with my amazon kindle and recieved it 6 days after my kindle.

Which do you think would be faster

Kindle @5-7 Days shiping

or

Cover @ 4-6 Days shipping?

Got the cover a week after the kindle.

The cover itself is good and I like how it has four securing straps instead of two.
