This cover was exactly what I expected. It does a great job protecting my new mac. The hard plastic is very durable and strong. I feel sure that my Mac will live through any mishap that might happen. It was easy to install, with snap-on clicks to indicate when it was fully on. The slits on the bottom prevent the laptop from getting overheated.

Good protection for my new macbook pro. Fits well on 15" pro, clear cover doesn't interfere with the overall aesthetic of the macbook, and it protects it against scratches. Can't say how long it will last because it seems like the grips could eventually break off, but so far so good.

After trying several different types of covers for my MacBook Pro I was happy to discover this cover. It snaps on easily and looks terrific. It allows for easy access to all posts, etc. I purchased the clear version and feel confident in the protection this cover provides for my MacBook.

I bought this product to protect my 15" MacBook Pro laptop. I'm always a little hesitant to purchase a product like this when it's not released by the OEM, but I have been very pleased with this product. The product came wrapped in plastic and within 2 minutes I was able to attach it to my notebook. I probably spent more time removing the plastic than I did attaching it to my notebook. The product fits perfectly around the computer so it provides very good protection against simple scratches. The product also has venting on the bottom of the cover, so it hasn't caused any problems with functionality.

The bottom of the product has little tabs that allow you to prop the laptop up, so you can have a more comfortable experience. I chose the clear cover because I didn't want to make a statement with the cover. The clear cover provides minimal detraction from the appearance of the computer. I also like the closed box around the Apple (as opposed to the cutout some of the competing products have used).

I was very pleased with this seller as well because they provided me with a keyboard cover as well.

Having just purchased a new 15" MacBook Pro A1286, I felt I needed a cover/case to protect it. I love the raw aluminum shell of the MacBook Pro but being a working photographer and using it tethered to my camera on location, I knew that I had to cover the surface or risk its getting inadvertently scratched. I wasn't keen on one of the more vinyl like covers as they feel rather bulky. The mCover polycarbonate shell is perfect. Thin, great fit and discrete.

I love this product. it is perfect. the plastic is strong but thinner than the Speck cases so the computer is less bulky. AWESOME! will buy more

This product looks fairly sleek on my new Macbook Pro 15" (2009 edition). There is just a hair of extra height produced towards the back due to the fold-out legs, and this works great to keep your air vent off the ground!! Flip out the legs and significant height increased in the back. Legs are nice when working on a large flat surface and keeps the computer cooler (more pronounced when using on a soft surface like a bed or my stomach!). Price on Amazon or other sites is great too!

My only problem(s) with this product, at its nitpicky, is that the 1) legs are a bit tricky to flip open sometimes, 2) the legs when open or closed can hurt your skin/lap, and 3) no instructions for installation and if you insert the bottom half front-first as opposed to backside first, then it may not go it snuggly and may stick out in the back.
Again, I love this product, and am very happy that my laptop is now safe from scratches and wear. Fits great (somewhat difficult to remove, which for me is a good thing), and is very thin. It barely adds bulk to the laptop. PS. the black version looks really sleek!

I wanted to protect my new MBP 15" and still see the good looks of the solid aluminum case. This easy to use cover was just the ticket. Easy to install and it fits well - won't slide around scratching the finish like some others I have seen. What more can I say - it's durable, well fitting and a great value! Thanks.

The new unibody Macbooks seem to scratch a lot easier than the old ones did. I recommend this case for protecting the computers good looks. The case just snaps on and it covers the outer surface of the laptop. The hard shell also gives the computer some additional protections. I like the clear since the original finish looks good with it.

This Is a great cover that can protect your computer while showing the silver side of your mac. Snap on off case. A must to protect your mac. i would recommend the case to all my friends.
