Customer Reviews: I am very pleased with this case… and NO ODOR!   December 17, 2009 David Wolff (Manchester, MI) I just purchased a Kindle 2. I wanted a case for it. I read all of the reviews on all of the cases over and over again and finally settled on this case. I am SO glad I did. All of the PROS in previous reviews are true. None of the CONS are, at least in my case. The quality of the case is excellent. There is no odor of any kind. The zipped works perfectly. The padding around the zipper means no scratching. I could not ask for more in a case at any price. I don’t know about durability yet as I haven’t had the case long, but from the look and construction quality, I have no question that it will last a long, long time. It does the job   December 15, 2009 S. Blackmon (Houston, Texas United States) I like this case because it totally protects the K2. Most others just have a small flap/snap closure. I don’t have to worry about random stuff falling into the sides & cracks when using the Belkin. As some have said,it has a slight smell, but nothing that won’t fade. I just wish it zipped open under the bottom so you could keep the kindle in the case while you read. Just fine!   December 15, 2009 MarknDC (Washington, DC USA) I was a little nervous ordering this case because I read so many reviews about smells and poor quality zippers. But mine came today and it’s great! Yeah there is a slight smell (like a rubber mouse pad) but its barely noticeable. (One person who reviewed this case said it smelled up their whole apartment… the fact that this case is so small, I can’t imagine it would smell up a drawer let alone an apartment.) Anyway, it fits the kindle almost perfectly. There is a little room to spare so the zipper fits snugly but not too tight (another reviewer complained about the zipper being too small but I think it is just fine.) If I had to make any change, it would be nice if there were a leather loop/tube at the bottom in which you could store the charger, but its okay without it. All in all, a great case for a good price. Kindle Case   December 13, 2009 Giuseppe Bertoni (Herzogenbuchsee, Switzerland) Practical, functional and discreet. Just perfect!Belkin Neoprene Kindle Case (Fits 6″ Display, Latest Generation Kindle) PROTECTS YOUR KINDLE 2 VERY WELL   December 13, 2009 Tucker Andersen (Wall Street) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful BELKIN NEOPRENE KINDLE 2 CASE I just purchased a Kindle 2 after my Kindle 1 died, perhaps partially because of the fact it slipped out of its Amazon case (poorly designed in my opinion) and fell a few times, hitting the floor or my desk fairly hard. The Amazon case also did not protect it completely when I was traveling and it was not in use. Since my wife already had a Kindle 2, I was aware that Amazon had provided metal hooks to secure that model in its case, and that the thinner design made it easier to read in the case as well. However, I wanted something to protect my Kindle to the maximum extent possible possible when I was traveling, especially on the train to and from work or when on a plane, rather than just slipping it into a pocket of my briefcase or computer bag and having it fall out by accident when they were open. After reading the reviews, I decided to buy this Belkin case despite my concern that the Kindle had to be removed from the case to read it and it did not fit in the case with the Amazon cover on it. However, I am DELIGHTED with this product. It is exactly what I expected after reading the description and reviews. The Kindle easily fits in it, and because it only zippers across the top and one side the Kindle will not slip out when you open it. Both front and back are well padded, so you don’t have to worry how you insert your Kindle, the screen will be protected. and the Kindle 2 is so thin and the case so soft and flexible that it easily slips into a corner of my briefcase, there is no noticeable bulk at all. The only complaint I will echo is that the zippers could have been more heavy duty, although I have had no problems with them. I also bought the Amazon case, expecting to use it when I was reading the Kindle at home or uninterruptedly for a long period of time while traveling, but have found that the design of the Kindle 2 makes it very comfortable to simply read it without a case, especially since the back cover can not slip off as it frequently did with my Kindle 1. Finally, the neoprene smell of which some reviewers complained has been non-existent. either Belkin has modified the product in some manner or I have been very fortunate, but from the time I unwrapped it there has been no odor at at. And I am very sensitive to all strong smells, being severely allergic and sensitive to many odors and often sneezing uncontrollably when initially exposed to them. So, if you carry your Kindle when you travel and want to conveniently protect it when it is not in use whether on the road or at home, I highly recommend this case. If problems develop with this product or it is less durable than it appears, I will edit this review to indicate any problems which arise which would cause me to lower my five star rating.
