For me, the only shortcoming design wise was putting the power button on the left. Since that's also where the 'spine' of a cover is, it can be awkward to turn on. If I were using a sleep cover, I guess that wouldn't be an issue.
I'll definitely post a "review" (my impressions) of the Glowlight Plus (2015) when I get back from Texas. They haven't shipped it yet (had they shipped it Monday morning it might have arrived in time for me see it for a few minutes). Did the original GL+ even have the sleep feature? I'm having trouble finding a cover that says anything about that. (It does have a Nook OEM cover ‒ one with as strap to hold the case shut — but it looks like it's been used pretty heavily and is a bit "ratty." (Apologies to rats.) The GL+, itself, looks pretty good in the pictures. But we'll see, it can be crap-shoot buying from Shop Goodwill. If I really like the GL+, and this one has shortcomings, I'll probably look into buying one of the refurbished ones that BigDeals seem to be selling forever.)
