I'm on my third one in less than a year, but I'm still essentially satisfied with it since my two returns have been fairly hassle free.

I ordered the first one after about a week of getting my launch-day mini. I think it was ~$5 introductory price at that point, which seemed reasonable. :D

It was a tight fit, and after a few months I noticed a crack had formed at one corner -- got a free replacement under their 3 year warranty.

The quality of the replacement was worse, with the edges of the cover separating after only a few days. Then, a few months ago a similar crack opened up -- free replacement.

This third unit is definitely the best quality so far. The cover materials and construction are much better, showing no signs of fraying. Also, they've included extra magnets at the hinge side of the cover that help hold the cover in the folded position. But, even though this case seemed less tight initially, I just noticed a crack opening up in the corner. :rolleyes:

Yet, I'll probably keep this one for the duration. I guess it doesn't seem like the iPad will fall out.
