Review: Keyboard fine, case not so much

I use and review a number of kindle cases, and my biggest problem I've found is that cases often do not hold the kindle secure enough for my tastes. Since I buy kindle cases primarily to make sure my kindle is protected, this is a huge issue for me.First, it is a keyboard + case. The keyboard is a small Bluetooth keyboard which syncs quite well with the device and is easy to use and set up. The case itself folds out to create a kind of stand, and when not in use the case folds back up so the keyboard touches against the kindle's glass screen. I found the case itself to be poorly made. By necessity the top half of the kindle when seated in the stand will be unsecured. This poses a big problem because when not folded out as a stand, the Belkin case could slip off and the kindle will fall out. Second. The triangle stand kept collapsing when I tried to use it. 75% of the time it seemed to collapse under the weight of the kindle making it really unstable. Disappointing.The keyboard itself is tiny,and when the case is collapsed the keys are pressed up against the glass which seems an unlikely design.Overall, the case itself needs a re-design or the one I have is defective. My case did not hold my kindle securely, and the stand was too flimsy to hold the kindle properly upright to use as a screen.
