4.0 out of 5 stars
A Stylish and Protective Cover, June 10, 2009
This review is from: (8 Color Option) Mivizu Amazon Kindle 2 Leasther Book Cover Case accessory travel package with reading book light
I recently received my Mivizu case and I'm exceptionally pleased with it. The gently pebbled leather feels wonderful and the cover is sufficiently padded to protect the Kindle from the bumps of everyday life. I ordered the "Green Stone" color and find the image on Amazon to be remarkably accurate to the actual color. When I ordered, I was initially concerned about the fact that there is nothing really holding the Kindle in place -- there is leather on the bottom of the sleeve, but not the top. However, the cover is a snug fit and refused to budge, even under vigorous shaking. The latch which holds the cover on is quite secure as well, and I feel very safe when putting the case in a purse or bag that it won't accidentally open and put my screen in danger. The one reservation I have is with accessibility to the keyboard. This is only really a problem with the bottom row of keys, and not enough to keep me from purchasing another of these cases. In my opinion, the security from surrounding the Kindle in leather is more than worth occasionally bumping the leather with your thumbs when reaching for the 'SYM' key. Overall, I'm very happy with the case and would gladly recommend it to a friend.

Great protection without the bulk, July 12, 2009
This review is from: (8 Color Option) Mivizu Amazon Kindle 2 Leasther Book Cover Case accessory travel package with reading book light
The reason I purchased this particular cover is I didn't like the binder look and feel to the other covers I had seen for the kindle. I am a lefty and I didn't like the bulk put on the left side of the reader. This cover folds over easily and doesn't interrupt the reading experience. I also didn't like the covers that held the unit in place by elastic straps that could loose their strength over time or the plastic clips that some reviews had said cracked their K2. This cover holds the unit VERY securely without interrupting button accessability. The K2 sits just inside the sturdy back, to allow for a buffer in case of impact. There are two reasons that I didn't give this product 5 stars. 1. I felt the shipping was overpriced. The company bases shipping cost on item price. For a very small lightweight item they made out like a bandit on shipping this. 2. When the cover arrived the red croc was brighter red than I expected. There was some residue adhesive around the stitches that had to be removed by me, and some black spots on leather that I had to clean off. There were two very minimal scrapes out of the leather as well. Overall, the functionality of the product is amazing, and I can't imagine using another cover. Also the leather is soft and has a wonderful cushion that makes for a great feel in your hands. If someone were giving a Kindle as a gift this case comes in a nice box that would make a spectacular gift presentation as well.

Durable and Sturdy, June 25, 2009
This review is from: (8 Color Option) Mivizu Amazon Kindle 2 Leasther Book Cover Case accessory travel package with reading book light
I thought that for the cost of this case, I would be getting a slightly less quality item, but I am pleasantly suprised. Not only did it come only 5 days after ordering (that's including a saturday and sunday!), but it also came in an amazingly sleek black box. I purchased the white variety, which is a very bright white that blends well with the Kindle. The "stone" design looks great and gives the leather a nice grip. The front and back covers are very sturdy and also have a good deal of stiff padding for extra protection. I'm very glad that I can pick this up without worrying that I'm squeezing too hard and pushing against the screen. I'm not sure that the pocket on the inside front cover is really useful, but I suppose if you were reading something for study it might prove handy.
