3.0 out of 5 stars could be more snug, November 21, 2009

This cover looks great, but I would have preferred it to be slightly more snug. The kindle can easily slip out of the cover if placed in a large purse. This case stretches, but the fit isn't tight enough to actually make use of the stretchy material. To give you a better idea of the fit, I think you can fit two kindles in this case. I'm a bit disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it, November 18, 2009

Just got one for my birthday & I LOVE it. So much cooler than the serviceable black cover that came with my Kindle. The little waiste causes it to fit snuggly. The only thing I would change is I may add a button & loop on the top since it is open. That way I can put it into my purse without worrying about dropping my lipstick in on top of it. The original Kindle fits inside but not with that black cover on it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Needs a zipper, November 30, 2009

I love Built NY products, but I agree with other reviews that it could be more snug. I put it in my school bag sideways and it slides out very easilty, which defeats the purpose. Two square velcro strips on either side seemed to solve the problem, but it would be much better if Built NY had put a zipper in the top.
