I recently read a review that the iPad doesn't fit very well in the sleeve and the home button doesn't even line up. Is this true?

They don't line up exactly, but it's not very far off, and certainly not enough that I ever have problems hitting the home button. It's not covered at all - just not perfectly centered. I've had this case for about 6 months, and have taken my iPad in it to London, Lisbon, and all over the US as my primary computer, so the tiny aesthetic of it not being centered hasn't bothered me - the incredible sturdiness has really impressed me actually!

No, but a snap failed making it useless after 7 months. I would not buy another one.

I have not had this issue with the ipad2 and have absolutely enjoyed having the case.
1562792
No issues. This is a great case. It fits well and everything lines up. I just travelled for 3 weeks through Europe and the case was perfect.

Mine fits perfectly. On a side note, people compliment this case all of the time. Expensive but very different and nice.

No, it's not true, my ipad 2 fit very well in the sleeve and there is no problem in using the home button
1562795
Mine does. Maybe it depends on the model of it. the only thing is charging it is a problem woth the case u gotta make sure it connects well if not it won't charge

Ours was ok. No problems with the fit or accessing the buttons. I bought the case for ipad2 and i'm happy with the purchase.

It's supposed too...by the way, I wouldn't buy this case if I were you. I bought it 1 month ago for my daughter and its already fraying at the edges. It doesn't hold the device up well..always falls, and the fit is not snug, it's loose on the home button. I already ordered a different case because this one is not a good one. Good luck.

Shelley, I have the iPad Air... It fits well. However, the quality is lacking big time. I have had to get 2 replacements so far due to keys popping off the keyboard and the case falling apart. I had a different case previously (for my iPad 2) from Kensington that was fantastic. This one is just poor quality. Kensington has been great sending replacements, but I'd look for a different case... Zagg makes a good one I hear.

Not really. It would be a very tight fit. If you have any kindl of sleeve on the iPad it definitely won't.

When I bought this iPad air was not out. I know the iPad Air is not as wide as the iPad 2 which I have. It may now come with something to compensate for the size. However if it does not say then I would assume it does not and get something else.

I purchased Moshi cover for my iPad and it did not fit snug. I contacted Moshi and asked a bout the new retna display iPad and it was like they had never heard of the new retna display iPad and insisted that the cover I purchased should fit. I measured the iPad and the description that was on their web site and the measurement was about 3 mm off which was the reason for the non-fit.

My case was a very snug fit, but it didn't damage either when I removed the iPad. I wouldn't do it on a regular basis though. The iPad is a pretty tough little tablet, but I think removing and replacing would cause the case to loosen over time and not hold has securely.

Todd, I was reading some of the "newest first" reviews and it looks like the magnet that puts the iPad to sleep does not work with this case. Are you able to confirm that? I'm expecting my new iPad to be delivered on Monday the 20th and I'm still trying to make a decision on some of the cases available.

So far, my iPad reattaches securely. I've only had the keyboard folio case for a little over a month now, so I can't comment on the keyboard case long-term.

On second thought, you may be OK. The iPad slides in and is held in place by a flap that tucks behind it. If anything, the new iPad may be a little loose.

If I were you, I would send it back. The beauty of this thing is in how well it fits with ipad 2 or 3. Using it with a smaller device with a different connector takes it essence away IMO.

There are a couple problems related to the iPad Air 2 fit - 1. The rear camera aperture does not line up completely with the case cutout. 2. the Home button is covered by the case. So you can press thru to activate Home (or use the keyboard) but you may be very frustrated with losing the finger-print lock. Home is covered by a flap, but removing it does not provide good access either as the case material is very think around the flap making it difficult to press your finger directly on the button.

It doesn't fold like that in the standard position (home button on the same side as the on/off switch) but but you can flip your ipad then reconnect the magnetic bar and it will fold behind the ipad just fine.

Mine is a perfect fit. It's quite tight to pull over the iPad Air and it fits snugly.

Alexander,I have used it a lot and it has worked fine. However, it is a bit cumbersome at times and takes time to make sure the IPad is sitting in it correctly.Why is your challenge?

That's not my picture. I'm not sure if you can. I returned both of mine within a few days. They are a piece of garbage. The keyboard buttons pop out, the "adhesive" tears off, and it's designed backwards so the iPad buttons get covered up.

I agree with the other response. The ipad alone is a very snug fit. You might force a case inside too, but think it would damage this sleeve
