text: Scratches easy and shows fingerprints
  
  It does protect the Macbook, so that is what its main purpose is and it does that. Where it comes up short... I pulled it out of the package and literally my fingernail grazed the underside of the top shell and left a scratch on the inside. It would not bother me if it was not for the fact that you can see through it and the scratch is visible. Should not be that easy to scratch. Once I got it on, I have been constantly having to wipe the lid as it shows fingerprints like crazy. So it makes it hard to use in a professional environment, where you want to keep it looking good in front of partners and clients. So pretty much I use this when traveling, but most of the time it just sits on my desk being useless.
