Hello. Could someone kindly explain the following: 1. How does one insert the Kindle Paperwhite into the cover ... via the side, top, or bottom?, 2. Is there something that prevents the Kindle from slipping out of the cover?, and 3. Is the cover hard...

1. It has a wooden frame you just press it into the frame and there's little rubber grips in the corner that keep it in. It does not slide in. 2. The little rubber grips keep it in place. when you close it you can wrap the band around the covers 3. The cover is pretty hard I throw it in my purse in my backpack all the time when I travel.

I have my kindle fire hd 7" in it. It's a little bit hard to slide all the way in. It is kind of tight. But once it is in, you don't have to worry about it falling out lol.

Kindle paperwhite is what I have and it fits great. I have mine in a small leather case and I don't have to take it out of that to put in in the upcase. It's snug that way, but works!

there are small "clips" along the edge. Carefully push or snap it loose and then slide the cover..It can be a little tough. Sometimes I use a flat plastic like tool to get in under the case...hope this helps..sorry I don't have a good clear answer

I am unsure of paperwhite. I use a kindle touch with the slimbook case. It fits in tightly and doesn't wobble. It covers fully and you can hold it in one hand.

I have the original fire and it is perfect. The device is held tightly and has never moved. It also closes flat. There is nothing that holds the cover closed but it has never been an issue for me. My daughter tried her original kindle with the "next" buttons on the side and it does not fit that device but the fire does and I would recommend it to anyone!

The Kindle Paperwhite, in its cover, will rest fine in the holder; however, since it is quite thicker that the iPad (or iPhone), the lip that holds the iPad in place does not come around the cover. Rather, the Paperwhite rests on top of it. So, in other words, it works, but not perfectly.

Joy, I just tried to see if I could get the e-books on my older Kindle Paperwhite e-reader to come up and it didn't. That doesn't exactly mean it won't. Best to either call the company or just purchase a laptop that does support it. I know my larger heavier laptop does. Sorry I couldn't of been more help.

I don't have the cover made by Kindle for comparison, but this is very sturdy and solid. You can drop it & perhaps even step on it without damaging your Paperwhite. I am very impressed with it. It is also quite slim and has just a little bit of "give" to it.

Mind does not do that when I open it up, so I would suggest you contact Amazon Kindle support. If they cannot help maybe you could get the cover people to replace the one you have with a new one.

I took my kindle out of the cover and checked it out, nothing happened. I put it back in the cover and it started working so I still have no clue what happened. sorry I am no help.

Just a guy,Thanks...that helps me decide what to do. I checked again...to see if maybe I was going crazy...and I definitely 'see' previous screens after leaving them....sounds like a call to Kindle Support! As long as they don't take my Kindle without getting me a replacement FIRST! : )Thanks again

Yes, I have used it with my Kindle Paperwhite - by itself - and with the Amazon auto-wake case on it (you have to fold the flap all the way behind it). That's why I bought it and I really like it - I use it a lot. Hope this helps!

I removed my Kindle by gently taking my fingers and pulling the Kindle away from the sticky part. I had no problems reattaching the Kindle back to the sticky part and it has stayed in place. I am sure that the more you do this, that sticky part will soon lose the stickiness.

I used to use it with my old Kindle and it worked well. I just tested it on a hard cover and it seems to work OK. But I recommend getting a Kindle Paperwhite instead. You'll never look back! :)

I would say the cover would double the thickness of the Paperwhite, bringing it to 6/8 of an inch at it's thickest point, which is on the bottom where the charging plug is. It does give it good protection though, I used to worry about damaging the kindle before I bought this.

I often read in bed and the cover can be open to any angle. The Kindle can be held in one hand without any issues.It would have been nice to include a slot on the front or back for a business card in case the Kindle is misplaced. It might also have been usefulto include a small attachment point for a strap.However the cover is light and unobtrusive. The feature of turning the Kindle on is good, although sometimes you need to open and close the cover a few times before it works. I'd say it works on the first try 90% of the time and needs a few additional tries about 10% of the time. I often read in bed and the cover can be open to any angle.
