5.0 out of 5 stars Great cover for the price!
This inexpensive, basic case for the Kindle DX is certainly worth the price. The leather feels good and the cover bends behind for comfortable reading. The clasp is magnetic and stays out of the way when the cover is open. The white accent stitching is a nice design element and frames the product well.

Inside, the 2 leather corner pieces and the 2 elastic bands...

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a bad choice
REVISED - There seem to be several sellers that carry this, but seems cheapest here. I originally wrote that this cover is not all leather, but IT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE ALL LEATHER ON THE OUTSIDE. I really can't tell at this point. If it's real leather, it's the really cheap stuff, but that's what the official cover seems to be made of too. I would change the review to four...

This inexpensive, basic case for the Kindle DX is certainly worth the price. The leather feels good and the cover bends behind for comfortable reading. The clasp is magnetic and stays out of the way when the cover is open. The white accent stitching is a nice design element and frames the product well.

Inside, the 2 leather corner pieces and the 2 elastic bands fit the Kindle DX well, holding it securely in place. The user is not left wondering if the device will slip from the bands or fall out of the case. All of the buttons and ports are accessible with the cover on, so you won't need to remove the Kindle to use or charge it.

The interior is covered with a light-grey soft cloth. Suede would have been better, but that's too much to ask at this price point. A document pocket and elastic pen loop are nice touches.

All told, this is a good cover at a reasonable price. It works well and you'll never be embarrassed to show off your Kindle in the case.

There are a couple of companies selling this same product under different names. I've ordered from different vendors and they are identical. I'm not sure why this vendor tries to describe it as a mini-note PC Netbook case. It would only fit things sized exactly like the Kindle DX.

REVISED - There seem to be several sellers that carry this, but seems cheapest here. I originally wrote that this cover is not all leather, but IT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE ALL LEATHER ON THE OUTSIDE. I really can't tell at this point. If it's real leather, it's the really cheap stuff, but that's what the official cover seems to be made of too. I would change the review to four stars at this point. The clasp is made of real leather, and the little straps to hold the device on the outer edge are real leather (which may be how they get away with describing it as leather if the rest is fake). Even if faux leather, good value for the money. Cover folds all the way over pretty easily so you can tuck it behind the device, which is how I like to read with it. Inside the faux leather is a very thin layer of foam and then probably cardboard, and the inner part of the folder is a soft, pleasant flannel-like sueded polyester. It did take Vangoddy four days to actually ship it, but whatever. From what I've read of the official DX cover, this is a way better value, and will protect the device no matter how it's opened. Save yourself thirty bucks.

4.0 out of 5 stars Buy it if you want something cheap & reliable, April 8, 2010

I needed a quick, less expensive, temperory case when I bought my Kindle DX as it was confusing to decide on a good solid case for long term use. I purchased this case and must say I am satisfied with it. The case is a just a little bigger in size so the edges should help protect the kindle in case you drop it. Its fairly easy to move the kindle in/out of this case and feels secure. Although I use a caselogic now to carry my kindle around, i think this is one of the few DX accessories that provides good value for the money especially if you don't want to spend a lot right after your kindle purchase but do need something to protect your investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Functionality at an affordable price, April 17, 2010

This review is from: Executive Faux Black Leahter with Handle Carrying POUCH CASE Cover Sleeve For... (Electronics)
All the Kindle DX jackets that turned up on the first few pages of my search seemed to offer only two options: too many frills, or else no frills at all. Luckily, I kept looking until I stumbled upon this no-name generic jacket on the last page. It has exactly what I want: a single pocket inside the front cover, a pen loop, and a magnetic flap. Just as importantly, it doesn't have what I don't want: extra space for a booklight that I will never buy. It's solidly built, and the quality of the material is very good. I'm very, very happy with this purchase.

I almost returned this cover, but ended up keeping it. What I don't like is that the cover is too thick for the Kindle DX and therefore when closed the cover sits a little askew since there isn't enough thickness to hold it tight. Also, the clasp is magnetic as well as a little divot for a snap. They could have done without the snap to make it close easier. To close it securely I have to turn it over and look to see where to fit the snap it. Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things but it isn't handy.

I ended up keeping the cover because for $20 I think it is the best solution out there given what the options are now. I'd give this 5 stars if it was made for the Kindle and was THIN and if they took the snap out.

4.0 out of 5 stars This cover for Kindle DX is great!, September 16, 2010

Love this case! I wanted something for my Kindle DX to be in when I wasn't using it to protect it. Now you do have to remember you cant leave your Kindle sitting on the sofa for you to sit on. I always try to sit it on a table. The cover fits the Kindle really well. When you unzip you can fold the cover back and hold it very comfortably. Not heavy at all. Inside is fur like which protects the Kindle DX from getting scratched. I dont know if this cover would protect the Kindle if you were to drop it. As for the outside you wouldn't know it wasn't real Leather. The handles snap to the cover if you arent carrying it around, when you are ready to carry just unsnap and your ready to go. Great price for a great product!

I was looking for a cheap but reliable cover for my Kindle DX and I absolutely love this one. It feels great, it's flexible so you can move the cover all the way to the beach when you want to read. The straps hold in the corners nicely, and the button that keeps it closed is on the back so it stays out of the way when you are reading. The inside feels nice, too, and the whole package fit great into a bag I bought for my Kindle stuff. The only negatives I have are that the button is on the back and I kind of feel like I am holding the cover backwards for that reason, and also the cover doesn't sit perfectly on the kindle. It's rather crooked, so you have to fix it, but once you fix it it looks great. Over all, great buy for the price.

I almost did not buy this because of some of the reviews but I was not going to spend 100 dollars on a protective case for my already overpriced DX.

I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it was actually a quite decent case for my Kindle. I would definitely buy this product again.

I have not seen the more expensive leather covers for the DX, but this one is very nice and does the job of protecting the DX very well. It folds back out of the way for easy use while reading and the combination of elastic straps and plastic 'sockets' for the corners of the DX hold it secure without getting in the way.
