I have a nice, portfolio style cover for my Kindle that I do really love.  It keeps my Kindle safe in my purse, it is light and easy, and it looks professional.So THIS case?  I love it too, but it is nothing of the above. Bright pink.  Not remotely professional.  It is pretty lightweight, and while it doesn't protect the screen from smudges or scratches in my purse (I do have a screen protector for that though), it makes me feel a lot better about using my Kindle in weird places and it makes me more comfortable with the idea of my younger kids using it (ages 7 and 9.If you drop this, the design of the case means the screen won't hit the floor, and it sure seems able to absorb a bunch of the shock.The Kindle snapped right into the case, and it is held in place very securely.My only real concern is that the narrow holes for the cords might be too much for big fingers.  However, my husband (who has self-described "meaty hands") had no problem turning my Kindle on.  If he can do it, I'm pretty sure most anyone could.If this case had a strap, it would be perfect. As it is, my hand gets a bit tired from holding it for too long.
