I was lucky to be able to grab this at sale pricing (offered for the black color only but that was ok for me) and as far as I'm concerned it is the ideal cover for this little device.Fits perfectly and tightly, very well constructed, looks good. Activates 'sleep' when you close the cover and wakes the Kindle up when it is opened. The cover flap folds completely back to be held flat against the back of the reader. The leather has a nice pebbled finish that looks very durable. The inner cover is a cloth finish with "kindle" embossed into the fabric. The shell of the case is hard plastic which is visible only on the top, bottom and right (non-hinged) side. It really is excellently made and I can find no imperfections whatsoever with the cover that I received. It does add some minimal bulk to the Kindle but since it is a small device to begin with, it still is easily and comfortably held in one hand.Glad I purchased it and I would select it again. In fact, I would buy it at full price without too much hesitation (but maybe in a different color, theAmazon Kindle Paperwhite Leather Cover, Saddle Tanin particular looks very nice to me). These kinds of accessories are always more expensive than they "should" be, but if they are well made and durable then at least it will be a one-time purchase for any given device.
