Review on πŸ‘Œ Stylish KECC Italian Leather MacBook Air 13 inch Case (2010-2017) + Keyboard Cover + Sleeve - Black Leather by Monique Andino

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poorly made: laptop accessories

Ordered a dark blue "leather" sleeve for my 13" Macbook Air. When it arrived the top of the sleeve was in half cracked (it says 'leather' but the bottom of the top cover is cheap black plastic). See attached picture. In addition, the blue case had clear signs of wear on one side. I'm not sure if I received the returned one being sold by the company to another buyer and resold as new - or if there is an issue with the manufacturing process. I also noticed that the top edge of the case - the part that wraps around the top of the screen - had a very rough edge - as if it had been hand cut or finished by someone who worked very sloppily. I immediately requested a refund/exchange through Revain. I wanted to see if it was just an accident or if it was just the standard quality of this particular item. I wanted to give them another chance, sweat wow, the price of the case was about what I was looking to spend and the "skin feel." "" felt good, and the lower case that wraps around the bottom of the laptop seemed to fit nicely. To Revane's credit, I requested a return on Thursday evening and the replacement item arrived on Saturday afternoon. Revain does a great job with their easy return/exchange products. Well the new product arrived today and it wasn't torn but the top cover took a very long time to install as it wouldn't fit around the top of my laptop. Trying to connect it without damaging the top case or my laptop was a delicate act to say the least. In the end it hooks up and looks good. After installation, the bottom of the case spanning the bottom of the laptop was fine again, but the top edge looked very poorly finished - again, the part that wraps around the top of the laptop screen looked very poorly finished . (see image). The small carrying case looked like new this time and protects the laptop well when traveling. I took off the keyboard cover about five minutes after putting it on. It is very loose fitting and I made too many typos and was disappointed with how loose the fit was. He moved a little, which drove me insane. Overall I would give this case two stars out of five. Yes it is cheap but the quality just isn't there and this was not an isolated case as both cases they sent me suffered from the same fit issues.

Pros
  • nice item
Cons
  • don't remember but there was something
