Good Quality but Poor Functionality
I purchased this case after reading the positive reviews. The product arrived on a timely manner yesterday and it fit my Ipad2 perfectly. The leather is a gorgeous red and all the notches align properly. The top cover folds over to create the perfect typing angle and the smart cover works everytime. There ends my lovestory with this case. It does make the Ipad 2 bulkier but that is a minor price to pay for its protection. The viewing angle of this case seems wobbly and I am afraid it might not hold up in the longer run. But what irks me the most is that the top cover pops up slightly when laid flat on the ipad due to folding over. The magnetic clasp is not strong enough to keep the ipad covered if I lift it using the back. I am definitely returning this and looking elsewhere. But I so love the color...
Update 6/17/11: The manufacturer's customer service is really commendable. Few hours after posting the above review, I received a call from them offering me a different comparable model of theirs in exchange. Whatever is your issue, they will work with you to correct it. I will update more after I receive the replacement.

rooCASE Convertible Premium Leather (Red) Case Cover with 24 Angle Adjustable Stand for Apple iPad 2 Wifi / 3G Model 16GB, 32GB, 64GB
as a replacement by priority shipping and the store sent a return label for my original case. PCmicrostore just earned a loyal customer.
The new one definitely takes care of the problem I had with the other, it has awesome viewing angles and is sturdier than this product. The new case is bulkier than this but slightly. I am happy with it.
If the manufacturer had provided the same magnetic closure/clasp that they have provided the 24 angle model to this Dual station, the finicky problem would have been solved.
