Unfortunately, my experience with this cover was not like their's. The GOOD: The Fire fits perfect in the plastic "clips." It will not fall out. It is very snug and offers plenty of reassurance. The cover feels very well made in terms of fabric and durability. It does not offer any more bulk than you would expect when adding a case to a tablet. The BAD: Like another reviewer, I'm having issues with the magnets on the cover lining up correctly. On my cover, they don't. The one on the bottom aligns perfectly when the last flap is closed, but the upper magnet misses by about a quarter of an inch. When it is closed it looks a bit crooked, as if a stitch is crooked or somehow slightly off. It's enough to notice easily. I would love to keep it, but for $45? F that. It needs to be damn near perfect. It will be returned, and...

Also because Timbuk2 is a good brand with a good recommendation. I also like it because it looks like a retro trifold clothe wallet. Pros- Very well made The soft lining Surprisingly solid when in stand mode Cons-IMO a little over priced I'll add more after using it for about a week or so. 40 of 44 people found the following review helpful: Stylish, Sturdy, BUT..., By CarolynCAG (Schenectady, NY USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Timbuk2 Kindle Fire PROFESSOR JACKET, Brown/Tusk Grey (Accessory) I purchased this for my Kindle Fire in black, grey and red. It is stylish and sturdy, and converts well into a stand that is perfect for the horizontal position, but not so good for portrait; however, I haven't found this to be inconvenient yet. If I need to type something lengthy like an e-mail, and don't want to hold the unit, I simply change to horizontal and lay it down on its stand while I type.There are two things I did not like about this cover. One is that I feel it is a bit pricey for a non-leather cover. The second is that after it's used as a stand, when you close it up it does not lie flat, as there's nothing holding it closed, like an elastic, which would have been nice. There is a flat pocket on the front of the cover, and to solve this problem, I hand-sewed a piece of velcro to it (the pocket pulled open enough to allow me to sew through it easily), and now when I close the cover, their included velcro tab meshes with my sewn-in tab, and the problem is...
