After 1 year and a half of use (intensive !!) the product was hardly damaged. Just a bit jaded in the corners but it is only superficial. My Kindle is well protected even if he tends to be a little crooked in his protection, but beware nothing too bad since I can still read correctly without making me torticollis ;-) Very good buy in view of its low price even if the latter to increased since the time a few euros ... Inflation in life, you will say.
