 LOOKS GREAT BUT.... September 4, 2010
Margaux Paschke (New York)
This cover for the Kindle DX looks great and keeps it secure. My problem was that reading the Kindle in the upright position while in this case appeared to cause a slight pull on the Kindle frame. Where the upper lock of this case meets the Kindle has slightly pulled the frame away from the screen after less then 1 year of use. I tried to remove the Kindle DX from this case with no success. I followed directions of sliding the upper frame lock in order to release but it does not work with normal pressure and I am afraid to be more forceful for fear of totally ruining my Kindle frame.
While I cannot recommend this case for your Kindle DX, I cannot suggest a different case either. I have tried several other covers for my replacement Kindle (Amazon really stands beyond their 1 year warranty!) but I have yet to find the perfect one. The elastic corner bands of some cases appear flimsy and I fear it would not keep my Kindle DX secure. Others are strictly carrying cases which are great for "in transit" but require taking the Kindle out for reading which leads to mucking up my pristine white Kindle. I have tried cheaper leather cases but the odd smell has prompted returns. I will keep searching.....
 I love this cover until it breaks my $500 kindle August 16, 2010

I love my cover and kindle util it breaks my $500 device today. I read these reviews saying that it COULD break the kindle so I remember that and I open the cover carefully every time. Today, I opened it as usual. My Kindle simply fall under its own weight to the front, and my kindle breaks!
THAT IS A SHAME!!!!
The cover is suppose to protect the device instead of breaking it! Amazon's design is a total failure. You have to avoid this cover at any cost, no matter how pretty and high quality leather it has.
I NEVER SEE A COVER THAT BREAK THE CONTENT IT PRETECTS.
The cover should be put in the HALL OF SHAME of STUPID DESIGN OF THE YEAR !
It smells August 9, 2010
Uffe Svendsen (Luxembourg)
This leather cover has been treated with a noxious substance (probably poisonous) that makes it smell to high heaven. I'm an asthma sufferer, so I have long ago placed the cover in my cellar. The good news is that after a couple of months it is almost bearable.
A Brick in Your Briefcase August 4, 2010
Wayne Shannon (Müllheim)
The magnetized cover makes for an extremely heavy Kindle DX. I'd suggest buying a suitable sleeve to protect the Kindle DX whilst it's in your bag or not being used. But this particular cover is no more than a brick in you briefcase.
Unfortunate problems August 3, 2010
Seppo
The leather cover looks nice and functions well when reading too. Unfortunately it has a specific problem in attachment to Kindle DX, which makes it likely to break the plastic of the kindle. Therefore it cannot be used.
