Another victim of the glue!,
When I received the product two of the four corners had slipped off their black plastic bases and become attached to the orange fabric of the case itself. With great difficulty I was able to remove and reseat the corners and remove some, but not all
, of the very sticky glue from the fabric.
EDIT: The manufacturer promptly replaced the case described above with a brand new one without the sticky glue. I am now very happy with this case and would now give it four or five stars.

Whatever issues there were have been solved,
I had read review after review saying this was a great case except for the glue issue, so when I read that the company had fixed the issue and was providing support for the inferior units still in the wild I decided to go ahead and order it. I’ve returned many items to Amazon without a single issue so why not?
I’m glad to say that what I received was a great product, with velcro feet and is in fact a great case, fitting the iPad perfectly (this isn’t some rehashed netbook case like some companies are selling) and providing excellent protection.
Some people might think the bubbles on the outside look odd. I think they look cool. Regardless, they do provide an added layer of protection and that’s why you’re buying the case, right?
I bought 23 cents worth of elastic and glued two 3-inch strips behind where the iPad sits. I use this to secure a microfiber cloth (an eyeglass cleaning cloth I got for a dollar) that now sites behind the iPad in the case. Any time it gets a little smudgy I have a wipe handy.
The reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 is that it fits the iPad so well there’s very little room for anything else. Even my little “elastic and a paper-thin cloth” hack pushed the limits of the case’s capacity. I’ve yet to fit a pair of ear buds and I’d love to be able to. It would be great if the design of the case accounted for this, with perhaps a little pocket on the outside.
Bottom Line:
If you’re looking for a case that fits the iPad perfectly and is as stylish as it is secure, there’s not a better case out there. If you require a case that will hold a little bit more than just the iPad this one may or may not meet your needs. A little ingenuity (and some super glue) goes a long way though.

One of the best iPad cases I have found,
First of all, I think you can ignore the reviews from early April. HardCandy listened to those users who had problems and changed the product so the glue issue no longer applies. I purchased this in early June and was pleased to see that the placeholders have a velcro backing. They do a very good job of holding the iPad in place. Also, I think that there appears to be a little bit of wiggle room so you could use this to store your iPad if it had a cover on it. What impressed me was the amount of protection offered by this case. Many of the cases out for the iPad right now are more like sleeves and weren’t really what I was looking for. This has good protection should you drop it and really holds the iPad in place. It’s also a very stylish case and I think it’s a very good value for the money. I know it’s priced a little higher than some of the other cases offered but that’s okay. You’ve paid at least $500 for the iPad. Get a good case like this one.
