Inexpensive alternative to the Apple lid, with some issues

My OEM Apple lid, which only covers the screen and has a magnetic hinge, is starting to fall apart. I couldn't bring myself to spend another fifty dollars as the iPad itself is showing its age and may soon be replaced. This case fits perfectly. Unlike the Apple case, this one also covers the edges and back of the iPad. That might be fine if you're worried about keeping your iPad clean, but it does pose a few minor issues. minimal apple cover). The headphone jack cutout prevented me from fully plugging in any of the headphone cords. I expect most headphone jacks will fit, but this one was a bit larger than some. The only way to fully seat it is to unclip that corner of the cap. I may have to use a dremel on the cover or headphone jack to avoid this annoyance. My only real use for the lid is as a stand for hands-free reading. It's great for that purpose, although the angle is a bit more vertical than my old Apple case.
