> 24 hourI have a Kobo Libra H2O and this fits perfectly. I like that its fabric because it doesnt slide if I prop it on a pillow or even my pants if I pull my knees up to read. I wish the flap in the back were adjustable to a longer length. Sometimes I need it to be longer (i.e.: so the reader stands more upright rather than tilting back so far), but otherwise, this is a great cover and has protected my Kobo that I use every day.

> 24 hourInitially I purchased two different kwmobile cases for my Kobo Libra h2o so I could compare them and pick the better option. With so few reviews available for both cases on Amazon, it was a gamble. Well, this case ended up being the best pick hands down! Pros: - Strong magnets that hold the cover in place both over the screen of the e-reader when you close it, and also when you flip the case open! The other case did not magnetize in both ways, and this was a huge downside. This one magnetizes open and shut, and yes it does put the Kobo to sleep when it is closed! - An elasticized hand strap & a bonus holder for a card of some kind. Honestly, I dont know under what circumstances you would want to put a card in here (maybe your library card?) but it could come in handy! - A pop out stand for the e-reader that magnetizes in place when you are not using it. This stand is AWESOME and way better than the other case where you had to do some creative folding and then the case just stood because of friction. The fact this actually has something specifically designed to hold up the case is great. - Elastic stylus holder on the side of the case. I dont use a stylus, but this could come in handy for people who do. I imagine it could also hold a pen or a pencil! - This is more personal preference, but I really prefer that this case flips open book orientation style (aka, the case lid flips open along the long side of the e-reader rather than the short side). This is a small thing, but the other case flipped open along the top of the e-reader, and I did not like that as much. Yes, you can flip the Kobo Libra h2o around to orient it in whatever position you prefer, but as someone who greatly prefers reading in a classic style, this is a really nice design feature. Cons - Slight off-gassing when it first arrived. The case is made of various fabrics and some synthetic leather which had a bit of a funky chemical smell when it first arrived. Its been less than a day, and the smell is not very noticeable at all now. - To keep the e-reader in the case, there is a gray frame of the synthetic leather that you pop the e-reader into and it surrounds the entire border of the e-reader except the page-turning buttons on one side. This is a slight downside for me because part of the reason I chose the white Kobo Libra h2o was for the clean, white look. Now that is covered up by the case. But this is a minor issue, and not something that would cause me to go with another case. Overall, this is a solid Kobo Libra H2o case, and quite a bit cheaper than the $40 Kobo alternative. I highly recommend it!

> 24 hourBest cover I could have bought for my eReader. The material feels premium and makes the screen stand out. Defenitly worth the price.

> 24 hourIf youre considering buying this Kobo case, Ill tell you it looks and feels great! the stand works, the case keeps it protected, and the whole thing just works nicely. My one gripe is I have NO clue why they put the handle on the side opposite the buttons! The handle (which was a big reason I purchased this case) is on the opposite side of the page buttons, meaning if you want to read one-handed (the whole reason I wanted a handle) you are stuck using only your right hand (to touch the screen and go to the next page). This is fine, except for if you ever want to use your left hand, you cannot easily switch pages while using the handle. Why they would do this is beyond me. As I said, other than that, great case.

> 24 hourA few cons: no drop protection, magnets are not very strong, the strap on the back is practically useless, and the case overall adds considerable heft to the ereader. I like the auto sleep functionality, and the kickstand. But I cant justify the purchase.
