Great case for those just looking for a "sleeve", July 22, 2010
I didn't want a case on my ipad all the time as I like how slim and sleek it is. And, I don't need to prop it up (which those cases also will do). Just wanted a protective sleeve to put it in when I wasn't using it (I am always careful with my electronics). That being said...
This case does the job perfectly. It's a tight fit at first, somewhat annoying to fully close. You slide it in, then have to stretch the top flap over the end of the ipad. However, it quickly loosens up just enough to be easy to close yet tight enough that your ipad wont slide out if you don't bother to pull the sleeve over.
I mainly use this case for storing it when I'm not using it at home or in the car. Its very snug so the ipad remains small and transportable. When traveling I just throw the thing in my GF's purse (hey, I guess there is a use for the "luggage" they carry around), never a problem.
While I think this case would protect the ipad from a short fall, I wouldn't feel too good about it. The padding feels decent, yet the wrong angle on a hard surface could still damage the ipad. But, as far as protection from scratches and the occasional bump, this case does the job.
If you are like me and don't want a case on your ipad all the time and are price conscious ($20 aint bad), this is a great choice. The quality is very nice and as I said it does its job perfectly. Being able to slide it in without closing it is convenient for at home and when it's fully closed I feel good about leaving it in a purse or carrying it around.

Made for an iPad Mini?, July 7, 2010
Just bought this at a local computer store. The design looks great and the internal microfiber looks ideal to protect the iPad screen and case. I also like the fact it has no zippers (that could scratch). There is only one major issue, It's too small!!
Fitting the iPad in this case was not easy. It's a very tight fit and that's a concern if you are sliding this in and out. I imagine any foreign particle could cause problem its able to get between the microfiber and screen. This is likely to happen. Read on...
My absolute biggest issues was the fact that the fold over neoprene doesnot completely cover the iPad screen (even if you pull it down). There are exposed sections at each end where the fold curves upwards. If you were to put this in a backpack or other bag it exposes this area to scratching and dust/particle contamination.
I am going to take this back for that reason. This would be a great case if it were just a little bit bigger. My biggest concern is that the neoprene fold does not cover 100% of the screen. Not a great design to leave it too small like that.

Great travel pouch! Fits iPad 2 perfectly., September 21, 2011
If all you need for your iPad is a small protective pouch to protect your ipad from scratches and dings, this is it! I originally bought Apple's smart cover but quickly returned it. It was cool and everything but not functional. This Jumper stretch case covers your whole iPad (ihave an iPad 2) so you don't have to worry about it getting scratched or dinged when you take out of the house. I don't think it will protect it from a fall onto uncarpeted floor or concrete though. I love it! Around the house i just slide it in without closing the top cuff (for easier removal). On the road i secure the top cuff for extra protection. If I need even more protection, I put it into my briefcase. The best thing is that it keeps your iPad small and sleek unlike alot of the other bulkier covers. And it's priced right.
