Customer Reviews (see all-reviews)
M. Maresca ( Long Island, NY ) Better than others.
This cover was better than the Isis one that I also got from Amazon, but due to the case that I had bought for my Macbook, I had to modify this cover in a certain way to get it to fit nicely. If it was perhaps a bit easier to put on then I would have given it 5 Stars.

C. V. Anderson ( Tampa, FL USA ) Protection at it's best
Really good at protecting my apple. The material seems to attract a lot of dust.

Isaac J. Raway ( St. Paul, MN ) Good if you need it
If your keyboards often wear out, this is probably a good product for you. I haven't used it for a long time so I'll have to revisit my review after a few weeks of use.
Note that the added rubber does indeed change the action of keys - there is a noticible "edge" made from the rubber when depressing keys, which might be slightly irritating to some.
I have a bit of an issue with the way the palm rest is made. It has a slight edge which I think is supposed to go outside of the frame and sort of wrap around the very top of the base. This sort of prevents the cover from staying shut completely without some adjustments. Not sure if it will stay in place after awhile or if that would continue to be an issue. If you have some kind of external skin this shouldn't be a problem, but without one I'd be a bit worried about the top catching on papers, etc. in a bag. Given that, I would have preferred a tapered edge around the palm rests. One of the reasons I got this however was to combat the wear patterns forming on the palm rests of my MacBook.
One thing I was a bit worried about was possibility of a latex smell - so far I don't detect any bad smell on my hands from the cover.
Over all a good purchase, recommended.

Cherian Koshy ( Mpls, MN ) Fine but not ideal
I purchased this product concurrent with my new Macbook to ensure that it was safe from day one. While it does provide the benefits of preventing dust and other junk from getting on the laptop, I don't believe it provides more than veneer protection from a liquid spill. As well, there is a noticeable effect on typing. I am currently typing through it and it definitely slows down my typing speed and raises my error rate. Also, it does not fit perfectly on my Macbook. The edges are very slightly off the edge of the computer creating a raised rubber edge around the left and right sides of the laptop. This is only important in that it peels everytime I open the lid and often requires reseating the overlay.
Still, it looks nice and feels good. Aside from the incredible misspellings on the packaging, worth the purchase price.

James Gawley Works, Fn keys mislabeled
The function keys on new macbooks now control iTunes playback (a nice feature) and have been shuffled around to reflect this. While my new rasfax keyboard cover fits nicely over my keyboard, the function keys are printed with the wrong set of symbols. It's kind of a shame. Otherwise I might have given this product four stars, because protecting my 'book is a big concern for me.
