About 2 days before Christmas I realized I still hadn't bought protective cases & screen protectors for the Kindle Fire HD's I bought for my kids. I came upon the Incipio Hive Response Standing Case on my frantic search for a kid friendly high quality (but inexpensive) case and had them overnighted just in time for Christmas. At the time there weren't any reviews for this product but I decided to chance it because I've had Incipio cases in the past (for my iPhones) and loved them.I absolutely love this case, it's perfect. It was easy to put on, hugs the Kindle snugly and provides a perfect non-slip grip for my 7 year old and 5 year old. Plus the "hive" design on the back is pretty cool. They don't have much use for the attached stand but it does work (I tested it out on both). It's a little tough to pop out on the first use but gets easier. The fact that this does NOT have a built in screen protector does not bother me at all because that's not what I was looking for. I honestly can't stand the built in ones and prefer to apply my own.I had considered purchasing an Otterbox case since they're considered the best but the cost was too high, especially when you add in the fee for overnight shipping. This case is a perfect subsititute in my opinion. The price is reasonable and it does a great job of protecting the device. I would definitely recommend this to anybody searching for a more affordable kid friendly case or just a cheaper alternative to an Otterbox case.
