Can only give the cover 5 stars but should rate a ten. Excellent fit and finish, great padding/protection of the device without creating excess “girth” and excellent storage feature for the M-Edge e-Luminator 2 lite. Its well made with great zipper pulls and fabric.
Can’t go wrong with this cover plus M-Edge offers a lot of great colors to suit your personality.
Not often that a product hits the nail on the head like this one.
Update: Today I found that M-Edge raised the price of the cover to $39.99……so no more nice reviews for their products if this is the end result. Also no longer available from Amazon Prime .

This sleeve is very functional, protecting my Kindle from any jossling around in my bag or the books it competes with for space in my nightstand. The Kindle stays in place just fine. It’s sleek / non-bulky design makes it easy to pack into a bag / travel with. I don’t travel with the charger because the battery life is so good so I was looking to trade off extra storage for sleek lightweight compact design. So, if you want storage this isn’t the cover for you. That said, the charger can be STUFFED into its extra pocket in a pinch.

I previously used the Amazon leather cover, which ended up damaging my Kindle DX. I decided to go with the Latitude and am very satisfied. The attachment method is secure but non-invasive, the fit and protection are superior, and the storage areas are convenient without being bulky. I highly recommend this cover for anyone who uses the Kindle out of the home.

Great little cover for my DX. It has a thin slot in the pack so you can tuck some papers in and a small zippered compartment up front. I am reluctant to put anything in the front compartment out of fear that if something presses on it that it might push through the soft screen protector and damage the unit. If I can find a thin hard piece of plastic or aluminum, I’ll put it in the front pocket to add protection to the screen.
The zippers are robust and have cloth pulls on them. I like that the zipper is “doubled” so you can zip clockwise or counter clockwise. This also allows the unit to charge within the case.
If all you need is a decent jacket for your DX, this is it.

I purchased this case because it zips shut, so I don’t have to worry so much about carrying my Kindle outside in bad weather. It turns out that I like this case for more than just its zippers.
The case adds just enough padding without too much bulk. The Kindle is easy to remove if you prefer to read it without a jacket, but I find that this one is actually an improvement over an undressed Kindle. Especially if I fold back the cover and zip it to itself. It adds just the right heft and balance.
There’s a flat, zippered pocket on the outside front, and a flat, open pocket on the back. There’s also the usual M-Edge pocket for the M-Edge reading light, in this case on the outside back.
The zippers operate smoothly. It’s a double zipper, so you can decide if you want to zip in one direction or the other, or have the zippers meet somewhere in between. You can also flip the zipper part out of your way so you aren’t holding onto the zipper-y edge while reading.
The material is pleasant to the touch and easy to hold.
I would definitely recommend this to a friend.
