Review: Very disappointed!

I wanted to like this cover. It is pretty to look at, it holds my Kindle Paperwhite in very snugly, and again, it is very pretty to look at. However... it has one major design flaw that ruins it for me. Similar to the Marblue covers, the Golla Angela cover has straps on the inside to hold the Kindle in place and then a strap to go around the outside. Unfortunately, someone thought it made more sense to put the straps in the center of the inside rather than on the edges (like the Marblue covers do)- so when you first open the cover up, it looks like it would only fit a cell phone! In fact, I thought I had a defective case until I checked and saw other reviews stating that their case was also designed this way. I decided to give it a try regardless and what I have found, after a lot of use, is that the Kindle DOES stay in the case quite snugly (a positive) but the stretching of both the inside elastic and the outside band mean that the cover actually bends awkwardly when it is completely fastened. Worse, if I don't use the outside elastic, the case pops open and I have to sit something on top of it (something a little heavier than a cell phone) to keep it closed.
