Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Customers like the quality, fit, appearance and portability of the book reader accessory. For example, they mention it's well made, lightweight and doesn't add bulk. That said, they say it'll protect your Kindle well.

I really love this cover. The texture feels a little like denim. It's easy to hold and there's no slippage at all, so it's a great option if you enjoy reading at the beach or other outdoor places where your fingers or hands might get wet. There's very little chance of your Kindle Paperwhite slipping from your hands with this cover on.The cover is also super lightweight. It adds very little extra weight to the Kindle Paperwhite, so in terms of portability, it gets top marks. You can throw it in a purse, backpack or tote and it doesn't weight any more than your average mobile phone, which is great for commuters.
I like the textured surface. Feels like the cover of an old library volume. Looks good too. This is the third cover for the third Kindle Paperwhite I've owned. It was worth it to me to spend the extra few bucks and get the Amazon brand. Good quality.
In the past I'd gotten cheap knockoffs. The first one was little more than a wallet-style cover; it just held the device in with elastic straps in the corners. With no magnetic cover it wouldn't wake the Paperwhite when I opened it, and it was a tad bulky; felt like a sandwich with not enough inside. The second one was more of a "case"- it had a magnetic cover and was more form-fitting, but the simulated surface (just layers of paper) had started to rub off.
This product feels far superior. It wakes the device upon opening and magnetically sticks to the back. The construction is solid and not flimsy like my previous ones. There are no sharp corners or edges and feels good in the hand, and it's lightweight. Would buy again.
Apparently I never reviewed this when I got it years ago!
Great cover, turns your unfeeling computerized demon book into a trusted friend. Joking aside, this does actually really improve the feel of the Kindle. It fits perfectly (as it should) and has an easy to open but firm magnetic hold.
The fabric feel really does change it from this lightweight piece of plastic to something that FEELS satisfying to hold and open up to read. It's not a book obviously, but it really changes how artificial ereaders can feel, and makes it into something... tactile.
If you have a Kindle, get this cover, whatever version/model, it's the right choice.
This case fits the 10th Generation All New Kindle Paperwhite. The Kindle just snaps right into place inside the case, and removing the Kindle from the case is also easy. I have not had the chance to test the water-proof feature. As for the other features listed on the purchase screen... it is easy to hold, it is very light-weight but durable, and the case itself doesn't have a built-in light, so I'm not sure why that is listed in the features. The Kindle has a built-in light, and the case does not block the lighting in any way. The fabric material has a great feel to it, and I am really digging the charcoal black/dark gray color. The case can be opened all the way and held behind the Kindle without damaging the spine of the case, and it is magnetized, so the case is held in place when held behind the Kindle for easier reading. The case can also prop-up the Kindle while it is sitting on a some-what smooth to smooth surface. For having a low price but being of such good quality and having several features... I give this product 5 out of 5 stars.
I really wanted a case with a built-in stand but the only options were third party with mixed reviews. I also would have preferred leather but the reviews on the leather cases for the 10th gen are pretty dismal. Overall I am happy with this case. It feels very solid, and looks good. It does have magnets to hold it back when it’s folded open. It fits the kindle like a glove. I have had it for a couple of days with light use and I just noticed a little bit of fraying but honestly I think a gentle touch with a lighter will seal it off and it won’t be the end of the world. The case is a little expensive for what you get but I can’t complain, it seems to protect my investment well.

Pros: - Lightweight, slim and sleek - Sophisticated, sturdy cloth feel - Kindle fits perfectly and stays snug -- the case just feels like an extension of the Kindle, and not a separate accessory - Magnet works great -- stays closed when shut, and stays open when you're using it
Cons: - No strap for my hand on the inside cover. I often read in bed, so the Kindle gets awkward to hold if there is no strap. For me, this is a deal breaker, despite all the other positives. I am returning this case for a bulkier, lower-quality case just because of this.
Amazon, if you could just add a strap to this case, it would be absolutely perfect!!!
I have had my new Kindle Paperwhite with the charcoal black water safe fabric cover for a few days now. The cover looks a lot better in person than the photos on Amazon. The weave is much tighter and doesn't snag on things in my bag as I feared it might from the view in the photos. One thing I noticed, is that when I have the kindle open and the cover folded back, it is magnetized to keep it closed. A nice feature when reading one handed, and also helps keep it closed when stored in my bag. A nice upgrade from my previous kindle cover. It is very light, soft without being slippery, and easy to hold. I splashed some water on it and it beaded off and wiped away without leaving a mark. I have only ever used the Amazon covers for my Kindle, and I definitely recommend this one for a clean, simple design that gets the job done.
I hesitated at first on this cover, but I am glad I got this one. It fits the Kindle perfectly. The cover closes securely with a magnetic attraction, and does not flop open on its own. The best thing is that opening the cover wakes the Kindle up from sleep mode, and closing the cover puts it back in sleep mode - so easy! The texture of the outside of the cover is good for carrying, it cannot slip from the hand. Inside, the surface that rests against the screen is a soft fabric. The only thing lacking is some easy place to put your name in case it is mislaid. But I am still 100% satisfied and encourage you to get this cover as well.
I bought this for my husband because he saw how much I liked my Kindle. He loves it. He still likes his "paper pages" but now he has the flexibility to use the Kindle when we travel.
Buena calidad y agradable al tacto, excelente la función de bloqueo y el material de dentro que esta en contacto con la pantalla del kindle es perfecta para mantenerla intacta.

This cover is an absolute must have if you own a Kindle Paperwhite. A durable, great look and feel cover which protects the display and also wakes the kindle from sleep.
It also just happens to identically match a case I have for my MacBook Air.
