I ordered the cover online from the Indigo Chapters website since it's half the price there (25$) and I've had it for about a week now. It's a great cover, although I also didn't know about the plastic back. It's okay though, it's good solid material and lightweight. But I've been having some problems trying to remove the Kobo from the cover - I managed to do it twice in a rather unorthodox fashion (just pushing the back of the cover and pulling the Kobo hoping the it wouldn't break) but now it's completely stuck.
Another problem (might be related with the Kobo itself and not with the cover) is that I have that 'Automatically sleep and wake up' option on - meaning that when you close the cover the device will go to sleep and when you open it it will wake up. This works as it's supposed to, but 90% of the times the device will go to sleep again out of nowhere about 1 minute after I open the cover. This is annoying and it obviously drains a bit of the Kobo's battery for nothing.
