Decided to purchase this to stop the back of my iPad getting scratched. I have a smart cover on the front and wanted to still be able to see the engraving on the back. After reading a few reviews, this seemed to be a cheap option that would do exactly what I wanted. And it does...kind of. Fits fine with the smart cover but: looks as cheap as it is (i wouldnt say the material is 'clear gel' , more cloudy flexi plastic!) and the ipad can't sit on the docking station while wearing the cover. So I was having to take the cover off every night so that I could dock the iPad. It is now resigned to the cupboard and I'm back to having no cover. Ah well, it seemed like a good idea! I'll still use it if I'm taking it out, but not in the house, so for me, the use for this is pretty limited.
