Good case, not so good LED lightJan 11, 2011
By AH The leather on the case is nice. I really enjoy being able to prop up my Kindle and read without hurting my neck. I wish the stretch strap that secures the cover shut was longer as it is difficult to use (even with my small fingers).
The LED light is another story. The light is too weak, and is not designed to properly clip on to the cover. I will not be using it.
I would recommend the cover, but not the light- especially since I purchased the cover on sale!

Most versatile Kindle coverJan 23, 2011
By BenH I wanted a cover for my kindle that would allow me to read (relatively hands free) while having lunch. This item fits the bill, to a T. It is very comfortable to use and gives you the option of Of placing the Kindle at different reading angles for the optimal view. The material on the inside of the cover is excellen. The leather used on these covers is also very good, and looks quite rich. the elastic band that is used to secure the cover closed is the one detail that concerned me when I first received my cover. I found it a bit tight and wondered wether it would be a problem and possible stretch out and lose it's elasticity, but, as of now it has not proven to be a problem. The light that is included with this cover is nothing to write home about but the pluses of the cover far outweigh whatever shortcomings this light might have.
All in all, a great cover.

a nice K3 case/standDec 25, 2010
By OldRick Admitting to it being poor manners, I often read while dining out. This case does a great job of propping up the Kindle while reading at a table. Well-made for the price.
My only minor beef is that it is thicker than it needs to be.

Love it!Jan 12, 2011
By C. B. Whiting This Kindle cover fits perfectly on my 3rd generation. I love that I can use it as a book stand or just hold it. It's a wonderful thing to have options. The book stand aspect is adjustable and the product seems to be quality. No complaints.

A beautifully designed and versatile case for Kindle usersMar 20, 2011
By GK I love my Acase! The incredibly taught strap has loosened up a bit after using it about ten times a week on my daily Amtrak commute during the past month. It's now a bit easier to remove the strap when I'm in the mood for reading. Placing it over the rear if I decide to hold the case instead of using the wonderful "notches" to perfectly position the Kindle for my viewing angle, is also easy. I also like to place my monthly train ticket behind the Kindle in the case. Keeps it secured and in great shape.
The Acase Vintage Acme Black gets a full 5 stars from me for versatility, quality, and competitive pricing.
Now, the included LED reading light... It seems the inclusion of the light was an afterthought. The LED isn't of great quality and projects a shade of light with a blue tinge onto the Kindle's exquisite electronic ink display.
From the video review posted above, it appears that she simply slides the light onto the case. What isn't made clear in the video is that the clip that slides in between the kindle and the leather case is metal!
If I slide the clip onto the case, which needs to be clipped onto the inside of the case, I will end up scratching the rear of the Kindle. Yes, I can probably removed the Kindle from the case, clip the light on and then put the Kindle back into the case only creating contact with a confined area of the Kindle. Not an acceptable solution to me. If I could vote for the light separately, I would give it 1 star.
Since the Acase was a relative bargain compared to the other high quality leather offerings for the Kindle, the LED will not affect my review for the case itself as a whole.
I am very happy with the Acase and will be recommending it to my fellow Kindle users. Unfortunately for the LED reading light, it been left in a kitchen drawer likely to never be used again.
