I had a Gecko case for my H2O. I sent it back because the magnets were misaligned and the case did not properly close. I ordered it from Amazon and was able to easily send it back.

I very happy with my H2Ov2 (now I've updated the firmware and fixed the sleepcover problems), and I am content with the OEM cover. I'd rather it did not have the fold-over bit (I'd rather it was like the Aura One cover), but the quality and fit all seem very good.

I'm glad to find more info on covers! I hate the new official covers SO much. I don't know if I am allowed to post links, but here is the cover I used to have on my old Aura :
https://www.google.ca/search?q=kobo+...4yK8rs_Tgb5RM:

And it was THE BEST! Such good quality, well built. Now I just can't seem to find good/pretty covers for my H20 in Canada, except on Alliexpress, but the design are... questionnable ! And since it's a 6.8'' screen, it's even harder, because you can't look for universal 6'' covers. Huh !

I ordered direct from Gecko (when I needed a replacement in the past, they didn't require a return at all, which is good because Australia->overseas postage rates are huge).

It arrived today, two weeks after ordering, and it's lovely. The inside of the cover flap is a smooth water-resistant coating instead of the old felt. The magnet works perfectly. If anyone wants photos, let me know.

The "felt" is horrible, picking up all sorts of junk and then dropping it on the screen. I may stick something on it. I bought my cover in Amazon. Also back is I think thicker than needed. It's only the screen that needs serious protection.
