Great Pencil Sleeve

I've only had this product for a few weeks. Not sure about durability yet, but I have no initial issues with the way it's made. Cons: It will charge if placed directly on the iPad, but if there is a case between the iPad and the stylus, it will NOT charge with the case on. I have a Zugu Muse case. It fits into the charging cradle but does not charge. The two combined layers between the iPad and the stylus are too thick. Simply pry this edge of the iPad slightly out of the case and insert the stylus. It's easier to open the edge of an iPad than constantly removing the case. In other cases, problems may arise, so choose the accessories wisely! But another downside of combining this case with this case is that the pen + case are too thick to fit in the pencil storage space on the back. You can slide it in there, but it's very tight and will probably ruin that part of the Zugu after a while. I wouldn't bother with an expensive case to use a cheap case. BUT I have a small backpack that I put my iPad in to carry with me, so leaving the pencil + case in the charging slot (as a pen holder) is no problem as it will be stored in my bag. So you need somewhere else to keep yours if you have a zugu case and want those pencil cases and don't want your pencil to fall off while you're carrying it. The good thing is that the case itself is good. I have a 2nd generation pencil and double orange and red to mimic the look of a pencil. But I intentionally left some white between the colors to make it look even more like a pencil. Without the case it charges perfectly, double tap works 100% of the time. It's also soft to the touch. I love the sleeve! The cons aren't a problem for me at all as I knew beforehand this was going to be a problem and they are very easy to work around.
