The Belkin Notebook Sleevetop is a handy item that does the job. It's nothing fancy but for someone who moves their laptop with them everywhere they go it's a good product.
Negatives: it does get dirty and doesn't clean up well. As one other reviewer said, you won't want to use this for meetings as it is tall when open and hard to see over. My laptop does get hot sitting on this. There's not much of a ridge/riser on the bottom half to allow air to circulate.
Positives: easily fits a 15in laptop. Easy to zip up and the handle makes it functional as a carrier. It's pretty good looking and very light weight.

I was looking for a notebook sleeve, and now that I've received it, I notice that this is actually listed as a notebook "sleevetop" case. I was hoping for something a bit more flexible and lightweight so it could fit into a backpack or briefcase....definitely not what this case was designed for. Although I don't doubt that this case would provide protection for a laptop, the newer, smaller laptops will swim in this thing. In fact, I suspect that these are on sale since they are over-sized. Be aware of the dimensions above as it is the size as listed...they come wrapped in plastic and are not boxed... and I would not say it is light. It will add several pounds to the weight of your laptop. Also realize that it does not close at the top so your laptop can slide out; it is stiff enough to retain its open clamshell shape. Also, the dove color is just a mousy gray, so I wouldn't say it's very attractive either.

I was looking for something that I can carry my Alienware laptop around without taking it off from the bag because Alienware is really heavy. Then I found this Belkin product on sale. So I gave it a try and I love it. I got so many compliments. This is a cool and convenient product that I can use around the house and school.
