I have used MarBlue cases in the past and was impressed with how well-made they were. So,I had high expectations for this new case for my 8.9" Kindle Fire. On this model, however, it seems as if their standards have lowered a little. The case was surprisingly flimsy, made from a razor-thin material that would be better suited for a coaster or a thin mouse pad, rather than a Kindle. The cover is not hard, or made from any durable cardboard or cardstock. If you drop your Kindle onto a hard surface, there would be damage because of the thin protection. The stand was also a bit flimsy. The eco-friendly cardboard box the cover is house in, is frankly thicker and a better protection than the cover itself.  It is stylish, though. So, the search for a decent Kindle cover continues for me.
