kindle waterproof covers
|
| By | Rachel - |
Just to be sure, I sent the company an email, just asking if they could let
me know if the ship date moved up at all, since that was the cover I really
wanted. First thing Monday morning, I received an email from Mark in customer
service, saying that they had a handful of the product in an early shipment for
product reviewers, but given that I was leaving the country before the ship
date, they'd be happy to let me have one of those few! And they upgraded my
shipping so I could be sure to get it on time! Now THAT'S customer service!
The cover right out of the package- it was shipped folded in half in a pouch, so
there's a slight bend in the vinyl, which is now nearly gone, after a quick hit
with a low-heat blowdryer and some weight on it overnight.
The closure is a "double zip" (like a ziplock bag), which really is
quadruple, since each "zipper" has two rows, and there are two sets.
You then fold the zipped part down, and snap the outer closure together. Total
time to close it took me about 15-20 seconds.
The Kindle 2 fits snugly in the cover, with a clear screen for the
screen/buttons, and a blue matte border.
The page turn buttons and keyboard are easily accessible, and you can press them
with no difficulty. The 5-way button is difficult to access, as it would be in
any bag, but I did it a few times. I would suggest making sure you've selected
the book and page you want to start from before putting it in the cover. There
is some glare over the screen, but it's not distracting, and I can't imagine a
way to make a cover like this glare-less without losing screen clarity.
There is also an adjustable lanyard-type string that the whole case hangs from.
I did the "paper towel test" (put a dry paper towel in the bag, seal
it, then submerse the bag in water). Dry paper towel, so the water tightness
seems very good.
On vacation, I abused it pretty heavily- sand, wind, water, and my Kindle stayed
dry and happy. There was a slight glare/shadow in very direct sun, but just
changing the angle at which I held the Kindle resolved that. I did end up with
some surface scratches to the cover- I'm guessing from ground-in sand, but the
cover remained water tight, and the scratches did not cause enough of an issue
to be particularly distracting. The page turn buttons were very accessible, I
did find myself sliding the on/off switch through the cover a few times with a
fingernail, and happy to say my laziness (not wanting to undo the snaps and
zips) did not compromise the strength of the cover. The five-way navigation
button was fairly unusable, which I fully expected, but since, for the most
part, my book was already selected, it was a non-issue.
In all, I'm very happy with this product, and incredibly impressed with Trendy
Digital's customer service. I'm thrilled to be able to take this cover with me
on vacation (and to the beach all summer!).
