I bought an original cover. A little expensive, but the quality is excellent.

Does anyone have any experience with the soft TPU type covers? I don’t think I’ll be using it for reading, just for quick transport, do they stink? Do they stretch out of shape?
I've ordered ordered the green one of the second link for my Libra 2. I have a similar cover for the Libra h20, and they don't smell, and they work fine and they don't stretch out (although, I don't do much to them except put them in my purse when I go out, otherwise they sit at my desk with me, or by my chair.)

Thank you for your response.

How long have you been using the cover I. The 2nd link? No real signs of wear/tear? Does it still function, does the sleep feature work properly? Does the cover add much weight?

Can you post a few pictures of it on? How is it? Is it heavy?

It all works well. I have been using similar covers for all my e-readers. The cover is light and doesn't add much weight.

Opinions. Not facts.

You made the claim. It is up to you to prove it.

You're the one who cares, it's up to you to disprove it.

That's not the way it works. You are busily disputing people's statements based on posts on MobileRead and elsewhere that the majority of users do make use of the frontlight. So now do some work to find some evidence to prove your belief that those beliefs are incorrect. Demonstrate your mastery of Google-fu, grasshopper.

Received my libra 2. Texts are sharp but background color is darker than forma (with frontlight off). Speed is faster compared to forma. The extra 20ish grams is much more noticeable than I expected.

Third party TPU covers are fine. I use one on my forma. It doesn't stink and is quite easy to put ereader in or take out. After more than two years of heavy use, it remains in good shape apart from some minor signs of wear on the edge.
