I just got my K2, and I decided to get the Amazon cover for now and then check what other cases were available in six months or so.

The case is the perfect size and doesn't have too much overlap. The amount of padding feels sturdy enough to put in a bag without adding too much bulk, it fits perfectly in my everyday purse. I love the hinges, mine seem plenty sturdy. I have a hard time seeing myself willing to go to velcro or corners.

I was worried about the smell issue, because I'm really sensitive to scents. Perfume and chemical smells give me terrible headaches that are painkiller-resistant and can last for the rest of the day. The case had a slight odor that I could really only catch if I lifted it up to my nose. I aired it out on my windowsill and now I can barely even smell that. Even fresh out of the box, the smell didn't set off a headache.
