I would recommend this case to anybody looking for lightweight, low profile protection for their ipad. I bought my ipad from the store without a case. About a day later I realized that although beautiful, the ipad was very susceptible to scratches. I ordered the Feather case over the Apple official case or other “notebook” style cases for one reason, form. The Feather adds no noticeable bulk to the device at under 1mm, and it feels like the same weight. The included screen protector works fine, but I ordered some extras because they tend to fall off over time. The ipad fits in my friends’ Apple keyboard dock with the Feather on it, which is a huge plus. Although a great case, I don’t see it protecting the device from much more than scratches and occasional minor bumps. If you dropped the ipad on a hard surface with the Feather, it won’t protect it much. I have the Feather/screen protector paired with a neoprene netbook sleeve for taking it on the road. I wanted to be able to protect it in my briefcase, but while using it retain the slim, lightweight form factor which is the reason I bought the ipad in the first place. If you’re looking for a shell style case that won’t add bulk to your gorgeous ipad, the Feather fits the bill.
