JudoMom Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Does anyone have a Kindle case or sleeve they are happy with? Before I received my Kindle, I thought I would want a nice leather cover that makes it look/feel more like a book. But now that I've had it, I think I only want a case to slip it in and out of to protect it on my nightstand and while I'm transporting it. Can anyone recommend one to me?

CAMom Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I thought I only may like a sleeve but I got this one as a Christmas gift from my son and I really love it! I take my Kindle with me in my purse and I feel it's well protected in its case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TN Mama Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 This is the one I've been debating on, but I'm not a fan of the color choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIch elle Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 It's hinges onto the Kindle and I open it and flip it back when I read. It's easy to unhinge and take it off when needed but I like to keep it on almost all the time because then I'm not holding cold metal (back of Kindle).

abbeyej Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I have this one. It's very handsome and sturdy. I like it because it *does* make it feel more like I'm holding a book. And because I feel it's safer. But it does make it bigger. I carry a small-ish purse, and the Kindle alone could just fit in there, but in the cover, it doesn't really fit (though I jam it in anyway). Same with my winter coat pocket -- alone, the kindle will fit, but in a cover, not quite. I also find myself wishing that if I'm going to have a jacket on there anyway, couldn't it hold a small pad of paper and a pen?!? But maybe that's just a personal quirk. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like what I have and mine is protected. I like that it is attached and I don't have to keep up with two things, Kindle and the sleeve. I've been really happy with my case.

Guest Texasmom1 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I have a borsa bella bag for my kindle. It fits it perfectly and I can put the whole thing into my purse. The bags are very well made with padding and a zipper that closes the bag. I learned about them on one of the kindle forum sites.

Heather in Neverland Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 because the Kindle is pretty fragile (ask me how I know!) i like to keep it in a sturdy jacket. I bought the M-Edge one (in hot pink with matching book light of course!) and I really like it...very sturdy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaceyinLA Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 That is what I love so much about the Kindle; I can read it in bed without having the bulk of a "book." I like that it's flat because it makes it easy to read no matter which side I'm laying on, and I don't have an extra flap to worry about. I bought 2 items. I got a silicone skin from ebay for about $10 with shipping, and I bought a neoprene zipper sleeve (about the same price). I keep it in the sleeve when I'm not using it, and when I take it with me, but when I'm reading it just has the skin on it. I like that it is a non-slippery surface to hold while reading, but it is still just the Kindle with no real bulk added. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXMomof4 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Dh got just a silicone sleeve to put on mine. I love it - it isn't slippery at all anymore and I don't worry about spills getting to it quite so easily. I'll see if I can find it on amazon.
