Plenty of reviews have been done on this shell, so I'll just say it fits and feels tremendous. However, it does not work with SmartCovers very well at all, despite whatever YouTube videos are out there. The magnetic seal is weakened quite a bit by the case. For example, without the Feather on, you can lift up the iPad 2 by the smart cover handily. This cannot be done with the Feather on at all. It's almost as if there's no magnets. The smart cover easily slides out of place while closed with almost no effort. It seals to the iPad's screen easier than it's intended place. So if you're planning on traveling or are otherwise mobile with your new iPad, this combo is not the solution for you.

I bought this as a short term solution for around my home, as Incipio is making a more compatible shell in the future. thankfully I only paid about twenty for it off amazon.
