This case gets 3 stars because:- construction quality is decent- Looks like a book, solid- Good fit and easy access to the buttons on the kindle fireHowever, it has shortcoming had me considering giving it 2 stars.Cons:- Case is designed with consuming videos in mind. Not really, games, or browsing the web. This is an issue, because it fails at even that. It has 3 dents for 3 different viewing angles, however, these are tiny and it only stays in place if it's place perfectly flat on a table. It falls over with little movement in bed, hardly stay in place on the carpet, and its impossible to place on the couch.- The "strap" needed to close it, or hold all the extra material in place is annoying… much rather have a magnetic seal. It is good quality, so if you are a fan of straps in order to close it, or open it (you will need the strap if you want to use the kindle in any way other than propped on a table), so it starts getting annoyed.- It's too pricey for what it gives you, might as well buy the Amazon origami ones during one of their 40% off sales for less money than this one.Neutral and to note:- It's not really child proof (very little front protection as well as top and bottom, sides are ok)
