Making Old Look New!

This is my 3rd computer case shell. The first, I bought at the Apple store which lasted for 7 years. I replaced it with a cover that was purchased on line for the same price as this one, but was not durable at all and actually started to scratch my computer (defeating the purpose). I saw this product and decided to take a chance. The quality is like the one I had bought from Apple and I love the color! The added bonus of the key pad cover was surprisingly helpful though it does bubble up around

Pros
  • Fitting loosely. Top snaps but when opening the top pops loose.
Cons
  • The plastic material may scratch easily

Perfect Fit on my review.

This is the sixth cover that I've put on my MacBook, so I'm averaging about a year between self-destruct sequences. I don't know what initiates them, but the bottom sections have all split and fallen apart, even though I hardly ever move or travel with the MacBook. The lid sections hold up a lot better. This looks like the same plastic, but it fit perfectly (a couple of the others not so much), so I should probably buy spares and put them in a drawer before they stop making them.

Pros
  • Love it
Cons
  • It might not be compatible with all MacBook Pro models

Never fit completely secure for me

Overall the product is super cute and made my old macbook feel new and cute again, however, I don't like how the top part of the case never seems securely and entirely fitted to my computer screen. Since I leave my laptop at home I don't have to move it around a lot or transport it so it does what I need it to do, which is essentially make it look cute, but this is not something I would trust for protection against dropping or any damages.

Pros
  • Snaps on and was a perfect fit, no wiggle, and stays tight.
Cons
  • The color may fade over time

I bought two! - my new review

I've actually purchased 3 of these cases, however the other case I had for quite some time and it began to crack. I'm pretty rough on my computers, normally I just throw it into a bag so I was ok with the cracking, it was expected. I then purchased two more, one for my 15" and another for my 13.5" MacBook. They fit great and do not bring any additional heat to the laptop itself.

Pros
  • Easy to install as it just clicks into place on computer.
Cons
  • The color might not match the MacBook's aesthetic

Great Fit and function.

I initially had a clear "Speck" cover protecting my 15" late 2011-Macbook Pro, however, I could not find a replacement (possibly outdated), so I found the Ruban product. It is a great value and very similar function and has the key protection as an addition. The initial test fit is great! I am happy to have been able to find this product and with the fit and function!

Pros
  • CASE FITS LIKE A GLOVE. - PROMPT DELIVERYTHANK. YOU !
Cons
  • It may cause heat build-up in the MacBook

Great case and great price

I have my old MacBook pro 2009 and my old case broke. This one is perfect and I love the color. The price makes it worth the investment for my old computer to look nice.

Pros
  • Does not obstruct use of multi-touch trackpad
Cons
  • The cover might not be easy to clean or disinfect

Vendor seems solid and Reliable

Received my used MacBook Pro in perfect working order. Mild dents on the case, almost unnoticeable unless you were looking for them. Even received a memory and hardware upgrade. Overall very satisfied with this purchase and this vendor.

Pros
  • Item as described, great fit and color.
Cons
  • It could damage the MacBook during installation

A Perfect Fit Case and Brilliant Look For My MacBook!

I like to show off my devices: phone, tablet, and MacBook’s true color and this see through clear case displays and protects my MacBook with style, elegance, with added peace of mind knowing my MacBook is protected from the elements. A wonderful and simple design.

Pros
  • Four non-slip grip pads on the bottom cover keep your MacBook firm in place and anti-falloff design prevents the grip pad from falling off. The ventilation design on the bottom cover allows your MacBook to release heat properly.
Cons
  • The case may be more prone to breaking than other types of cases

Great quality if your case fits snug to your laptop.

I got this case yesterday and I was let down by the fitting. The case snap in but the right corner seems to not seal. My laptop has no corner bent so it was odd that it didn’t fully cover the other corner. The case seems like it was trimmed wrong. The quality seems good to me. Love the soft feel of the smoke color case. Doesn’t keep finger prints unless you have really greasy dirty fingers.

Pros
  • Smooth and comfortable texture for an excellent grip
Cons
  • The cover might not be as easy to remove as advertised

Great Product on my review.

This case fits my Late 2011 15" MacBook pro perfectly. I didn't use the keyboard cover, but I would recommend to anyone looking for a great cover for your MacBook pro to purchase this product.

Pros
  • ‎RUBAN
Cons
  • The case could make it harder to access the MacBook's ports

Awesome Product for an Awesome Price! 😎 👏

I’m obsessed with this case! If you like a clean and modern look this is the case for it! Thank You Thank You Thank You! The cover might not stay securely on the MacBook.

Pros
  • Thank god they still make these. I thought it would difficult to find this 2011 macbook pro cover.
Cons
  • The cover might not stay securely on the MacBook

The best bang for the buck case for a macbook pro

The blue case I ordered was the best thing my Mid 2010 MacBook pro has had. Especially since it came with a cover for the keyboard. I definitely recommend this product!

Pros
  • Specifically designed for Macbook Pro 15 in. with CD ROM release models A1286.Please check the model number "A1xxx" on the back of the MacBook before purchase.
Cons
  • The color could clash with other accessories

Great case for the price

I've tried a few other cases and to be honest, the 15" 2012 Macbook Pro is heavy AF, so I'm used to the cases cracking a lot. This one has been rugged enough to handle the weight. so far. Of course, it will take some time to see how well it works out, but it's good for now. Feels sturdy and fits better than any other case I've used.

Pros
  • Provides easy access to all ports and buttons
Cons
  • The case might interfere with the MacBook's camera or microphone

Looks good, fit is adequate

Looks good, fit is adequate, but the edges of base aren’t as smooth as the top. Couple rough spots, but the price is excellent for a good looking product.

Pros
  • The keyboard cover protects against spills, dust and other debris
Cons
  • The plastic material may be prone to smudging

Great case! for my opinion

This case is great for the price! It isn't opaque, so if you have any stickers on your macbook, you will be able to see them through the case. The case fit perfectly and I love the color! It was also nice getting a matching keyboard cover as well!

Pros
  • ‎8.8 ounces
Cons
  • It may not provide enough protection against drops or impacts

Fits perfect! Very durable and looks great!

I purchased this for our MacBook Pro 15" Model # A1286 (on back cover) and it fits perfect! Very durable and looks great! I highly recommend it and the seller for great service!

Pros
  • ‎14.5 x 10 x 0.65 inches
Cons
  • The case may be difficult to put on and take off

The quality exceeded my expectation. The cover was easy to install. The feel is smooth and slick. I am definitely satisfied with this product and would recommend it without hesitation. The apple logo is not covered over at all. The price was a steal. I give it two thumbs up!

Pros
  • Enhances the MacBook Pro's sleek style without adding bulk
Cons
  • The case may not stay securely closed during transport

Clean look and sturdy!

My son bought the MacBook Pro 15 Case six months ago for his second laptop.The cover fits like a glove and looks great on the laptop. There have been no issues with the cover. It's simple to remove (though be gentle in the process) and easy to clean!He highly recommends it.

Pros
  • Good product
Cons
  • The case might not be as durable as advertised

Effective and Colorful Case. Easy to Grip and Clean

The case came in 2 days via prime. It was delivered in a sealed ziplock. The directions provided, showed me how to insert that macbook pro into the case exactly and clearly. The color of the item is exact and the description is as is. The key board cover slowed down my typing, so I didn't keep the cover on. That is because I have fairly long nails, and I need to feel a firm keyboard to maintain my typing speed. Otherwise, the rubberized keyboard cover makes me type more typos. Overall the…

Pros
  • Long-lasting and easy to clean
Cons
  • The cover may restrict air flow around the MacBook

Solid and stylish best in my review

The product is sturdy fits well on a 2010 MacBook Pro. My only minor complaint is that when typing the palms of your hands hit the plastic edge so it’s a tiny bit uncomfortable. But for protection, and fashion I’m sure you can deal. Put down a little palm rest or something and you’ll be good.

Pros
  • Shield against scratches, fingerprints, and smudges
Cons
  • The keyboard cover may be prone to slipping out of place
