### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ PERFECT FIT!
*by E***Y on October 18, 2012*

Just got this Macbook Pro laptop case in the mail and i have to say, this is exactly what i expected, plus more! Just for an FYI - i have the newest Macbook Pro you can get, as I was just at the apple store in September 2012 to order it so YES it does fit the newest Macbook Pro 13" PERFECTLY. i ordered mine on the 14th and got it on the 18th, so very fast shipping! its very very pretty, durable & feels like it will not scratch at all! on the bottom part of the case, (it comes in 2 parts - one for the top half of the laptop and one on the bottom half) there are 2 clamps that allow you to sit the laptop at an angle if you prefer. it is not completely see-thru but just enough so you can see the cute little apple sign lit up when the laptop is turned on. there are clamps to fully secure the case to the laptop, so it's guaranteed to not slip off. The price is awesome for this good of a quality laptop case. Trust me, I'd HIGHLY recommend covering Mac laptops because they scratch VERY easily. BUY THIS, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!UPDATE 6/18/13Okay so I really meant it when I said I love this case. Let me tell you something scary. A few weeks ago, I was rushing to get to work and decided to bring my laptop incase I got bored. I put the laptop, my keys, phone and wristlet all together on the table, went into the kitchen to make a drink, attempted to pick up all my crap at once to rush out the door and my water spills ALL OVER. I freaked out, like literally I was hysterical. THAANKKKK GODDDDD FOR THIS CASE - it actually shielded my precious baby from the water. When I took the case off, the water got trapped inside the case and didn't seep into my hard drive. Life saver of a case, but still you won't catch me with any drinks near my laptop EVER again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great looking, worth the month... *UPDATE-2 years later*
*by K***. on July 3, 2011*

For $20, this was worth the money. Orange is my favorite color, and it looks great on my new macbook pro.This is not for someone though who wants top of the line stuff. The piece that goes on top of the laptop seems kind of loose fitting, but that is mostly because there is just not a lot of room for the clips to clip onto the lid. It has not fallen off though,The only thing I am not impressed with are the little legs on the bottom. The seem really easy to break, and at least on mine, they do not stay flush with the laptop if I pick the laptop up. Basically I pick the laptop up and the legs hang loose on the bottom.Still, I would buy it again.*****UPDATE****I discovered that my laptop lock does not fit into my mac with this cover on it, so if I want to use my existing lock, I have to take off the bottom section of the cover.I noticed that the TINY tabs that reach over the bottom part of the case to latch it onto the laptop are so small and fragile that one of the 4 was breaking from just being on the laptop, not having ever been removed.I still like the case, but I would hesitate to buy it again. I hope they improve this model or come out with another that had better clips that won't break from the strain of being on the laptop.*****2 YEARS LATER******I took a drill and very easily drilled a bit of the plastic away so that my laptop desk lock works fine with the case. 2 years on, and even with the aforementioned broken little clips, the case is still great and VERY WELL WORTH THE MONEY. I would recommend this to anyone. I have even had my laptop fall off a chair and break an inconsequential bit from the case, but it protected the laptop and still grips the laptop perfectly.AND...THE CASE LEGS ARE NOT AS EASILY BROKEN AS I FIRST THOUGHT. I did actually end up just recently, after owning it almost 2 years, break one of the legs, but I mended it with super glue and its fine!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Product
*by S***C on August 13, 2012*

Let me begin by introducing my background: I provide IT services to a school, and as a result I tend to look for less expensive products that still get the job done. I've been around the block a few times with companies that ship a product that doesn't work as advertised or is faulty, and then refuse to work with me to resolve the issue.I bought this product because of one key feature: The feet which pop out from the bottom to provide a more comfortable typing angle on a flat surface. I am not aware of any other case which does this, especially at this price. I have friends and family members with cases from better known manufacturers, whose cases are well-made and durable; at the same time, the case alone costs more than what I paid in total for my case, including shipping. I did not want to spend that money, and ended up landing on mCover. I ordered a Crystal Clear case, which arrived soon after ordering it. The case was very well packaged. I have seen companies waste resources on boxes and insulation, but the case came in a padded envelope that was the perfect size, and provided plenty of protection for shipping. Inside were the two pieces to my case. There were no instructions, but installation was a snap (buh-dum tsss).I put the top part on, to find it fit perfectly. However, when I put the bottom on, I was slightly disappointed to see that it didn't really cling on one corner of the case. I emailed the company with my order number and my complaint, and they emailed back asking me to confirm my address. It was that easy. That so very rarely happens in the computers industry; often a company can make a beautiful product, but just not understand customer support. This company deserves high praise for their quick and easy response.A few days after confirming my address, a new bottom piece arrived, which fit perfectly onto my computer. I am so pleased with my case. It has plenty of ventilation, meaning that the MBP won't burn through your legs while charging. It's actually better than having the computer bare, because it provides a layer of separation between you and the computer, so it's aweomse. And the legs are well designed and built.Finally, there is one more thing that makes this case better than other cases in my opinion: I have had to remove other's cases from those well-known manufacturers I mentioned earlier, and had a hell of a time, breaking the case in one instance. This case is incredibly easy to get off when you want it to get off, but has never slid or popped off unintentionally. It is incredibly durable and well built, and I highly recommend this case for anyone looking for protection for their MBP.TL;DR: Great case, great customer service, great price.
