Holds my Ipad without slipping, and I love the 3 positions I can tilt my Ipad. Feels very secure and substanial, but does not add much weight. This is my 3rd case, and my favorite. I think I will order it in another color, just to have a nice change. I don't think you will be disappointed. The only con I can think of is that it does not lie flat with the front folded behind, but this is no big deal for me personally. The microfiber cover is nice quality, and hasn't seemed to soil easily. Worth the price.
