It was awkward to use the Kobo one handed (for me), and while basic Kindle could be used one handed, its lack of a touch screen seemed to me like it could be a bit of a pain. I haven't looked back and am quite happy with the Nook.. though occasionally I wish I had gone for one with the light.

Are you sure it was the Kobo Mini that you looked at? I can't image anyone having trouble holding it with one hand, it is that small!
