Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First off, this is a cleverly designed and well made item. It holds the large iPad very securely in a tough protective case. The holder for the Pencil allows for it to be charged while keeping it pretty secure as well. If you need to keep the pencil even more secure, slip in the case’s pouch in the back. In terms of making the very thin, large, slippery, and seemingly fragile iPad easy to hold, this case is great: Just holding the iPad in it is comfortable; it has a number of angles to sit it at on a flat surface—and they work great on my lap, too—; and the ability to just stick it magnetically to a vertical metal surface is a great surprise. I hang the iPad that way in my studio, for reference photos, but also running a multi-timer for exercise (Makes me wish I had a surface like that in my kitchen.) I expect this to be really durable based on the build quality and the feel of the materials, and gave that a 5 in the hopes I’m right. Their customer service is also top-notch: when the case didn’t arrive on schedule (between the COVID-19-related problems and the deteriorating relationship between US & China, not a surprise), I received a nifty carry case as a consolation. I’m totally pleased with my purchase.
