For £50+ I'd want some form and function
And yet he says it won't stay closed while at the same time complaining the magnet it so strong, it triggers the wake/sleep function when folded over.

So which is it?

ETA And regarding your remark about form and function for the price: Sweetpea has the same cover, manufactured at the same time, so there is no "different batch" thing going on and seems to find the ability of the cover to stay shut sufficient.

If someone has special needs to feel secure and is pointed to a solution, yet selects the product that wasn't recommended as meeting their needs, how is this the sellers fault?
