If you like silicone sleeves on your Kindle, this a great choice. Many people seem to like other options for their Kindle, but as for me, I do most of my reading at home and don't want a fold over cover for my Kindle.To me, one of the advantages of a Kindle is not having to hold it like a book. I read one or no handed now and like the rubberized texture of the case which makes it prop up better, improves the button controls, and even reduces how often I accidentally touch the screen since it raises the edges around the screen just enough to assist with that.I bought a pink one and then had the opportunity to get a blue one to review a few months later. When I saw they were the same style, I was thrilled. No, this is not a case that will protect the screen while traveling about--a standard cover or a slip cover is important for traveling with a Kindle--but for most of my reading, this case is perfect. And it is once again raised enough around the screen that I can lay it face down on my nightstand and not damage or even touch the screen while preventing dust from accumulating on the screen. It doesn't add much bulk or weight but gives just a little bit of extra friction and protection to keep it from sliding out of my hands when carrying it around the house.I also used this case while battling a bad flu recently. I disinfected the case several times during my illness and recovery with Clorox wipes and such. The cover looks like new. I also like the bright color options which make it easier to spot where I left the device laying about.
