I've got the ACdream one in black as soon as it appeared on Amazon.
Very cheap, looks good, no smell, and feels quite good. Even sleep works (but I've read some people said sleep didn't work for them every time they closed the cover).

Thank you. Does it add too much bulk to the device? If yes, is it easily removable or do you have to struggle to remove it?

Yeah. It looks like it still doesn't work. Apart from that, how good was it? Was it easily removable or too tight? I prefer the covers that does not cover the inner bezel (acdream does) but the downside of most of these covers is that they are often too tight and removing the device from the cover is a struggle.

It was comparable to all the other China-covers. It was OK for the money. If the sleep function had worked, I would have kept it. Even if someone says the sleep function works, it might not do so with your cover, even if you order the same one.

What color did you get? I’ve read some review that said that their purple is not as garish as it looks in the pictures. I wonder it that’s the case for all the other colors, cause they do look extremely gaudy.

With the ereader inside it's over 16 mm thick (vs. 6.9 mm of the device).
The cover looks quite ok aesthetically, like a not-so-expensive paper agenda.

It's not easy to remove, it takes 20-25 secs to me, but I don't do it often.

Hope this helps.

So, it's three month since I sent Noreve a payment and I still don't have a working case.

I was told I'd get the replacement on the 11th, but I didn't. Neither a tracking number saying it was dispatched or an email apologizing for the delay.

I can't say how many ways I hate this company.

I'm really sorry. I don't think this is the proper way of a company.

No, no smell at all. As a previous poster stated, it's just PU leather, but for $6 (free shipping) you can't knock it.

Is there a way you could call them? Or else, write and send them a letter by signed post and demand that the situation be resolved?

I wonder if their support is actually able to understand spoken Englsh, as they already seem to have some problems with reading it. (edit: reading written English, that is.)

Thank you. It does. I'm kinda oscillating between a snug cover and an easily removable cover. If anything, this helps me categorize it.
