    Vasco = Nice

    I recently purchased this cover for my Nook. I had initally bought the "Ellison" but returned it due to it not being quite what I was looking for. I initially thought I wanted an "easel" type cover, but after examining this one, I quickly changed my mind and purchased it. The material this is covered in is very nice. It's soft and feels like worked leather. I like the stitching around the edges, and the cover has magnets which not only keep it securely closed when not in use, but also keeps the flap secure when folded around back for reading. The nook snaps into this cover with the familiar 3 point design used with other covers. The branding is very subtle with the familiar N on the back side, and the word "nook" on the inside of the front cover. Although this item is more costly than most covers, I think it's well worth it.

    Very happy - great quality leather.

    I looked and shopped for a long time before I picked this cover. I am very happy with it. It is better than I thought it would be. The leather is soft and very high quality. I don't know why the one customer said that it was hard and felt like plastic. Mine is completely the opposite. The details are excellent, like a magnet on the outer pocket to keep things from falling out when the case is closed. And the inside of the cover is the same color as the nook and therefore doesnt distract your eye away from the "page".

    I am very happy with my choice and especially the wonderful soft leather.

    Bravo B&N

    Highly Disappointed

    This is a great design, but I am disappointed in the quality. The leather is hard and feels like plastic, it is definately not the same quality as many of the other cases. For the first time ever, I will be returning something to my favorite store.

    Ergonomics when reading are great.

    I was initially interested in another cover that was more feminine and just "prettier," but practicality won out and I decided on this one. I carry a lot of items in my purse for my toddler and I wanted to make sure that the screen was protected. The magnetic clasps are fairly strong on this case and I think it offers a little more protection from something sliding underneath and scratching or putting pressure on the screen. I was very surprised after spending the last 3.5 hours reading at how nice this was to hold. The top flap folds under and the magnets keep it together when opened. My hands did not get tired at all. When comparing this to some of the other cases in the store I felt that it had a much more substantial feel (although it is a bit heavier). The clasps on the inside do hold the nook in really well (they are plastic so I'm not sure how they would hold up if the nook was taken out of the case a lot) Overall, I think it will hold up very well.

    All Around - it is great.

    My husband purchased this cover for his Nook Color and loved the magnetic closure. He finds the Nook with its new cover easy to hold (he has arthritis), and he likes the way it folds back. When he is finished, he easily unfolds the cover and it quickly and securely closes into place. The leather is soft but protective.
    After reading his Nook, I decided to get the same cover; but, I wanted a pretty color. Unfortunately, this is the only color that the cover comes in. That is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I purchased this cover instead of a pretty one because of its durability and other factors listed above. The other leather covers with magnetic fasteners did not close as accurately. The non-leather ones were not as comfortable to hold and I feared would not clean easily. Although, not a "pretty" color, it is handsome. Anyone would be happy to own it.

    Lovely cover

    I just got a Vasco cover for my new nook color and think it's excellent. It truly does have a very comfy soft feel to it, and the magnetized flap works perfectly. Just enough pull to stay firmly in place, but easy to open and flip around for reading.

    I also really like the dark brown interior that in my opinion compliments the nook color's appearance perfectly. I've set my nook color's page appearance to sepia and it all goes wonderfully together.

    Smell the Leather mmmmmmmmmm

    The color is a deep, rich walnut, The Vsco wears well despite it's home in my carry everything handbags. You don't have to give up the feel of a book with this cover. You can almost forget you are reading from an amazing piece of new technology. The touch and smell give you the feel of reading a well maintained hand bound rare book in an old public library. All you need is an overstuffed chair. No lamp needed... I would love this in a saddle color.

    Totally happy!!!

    A very classy cover with practical features. The two pockets along with the magnetic closure is a totally smart design. The leather is soft and durable, not cheap looking either. Well worth the money!

    Very Soft, Very High Quality!

    I had to call three different Barnes & Noble to find just ONE of these Vasco covers in stock. I had the sales associate hold it for me, and when I picked it up I was told that this is one of the most popular covers. They have trouble keeping them on the shelves, and I can see why!

    The leather is RIDICULOUSLY soft and buttery. The magnetic clasps are sturdy and do a good job of keeping the case together, closed or open. When closed up it feels solid and secure. I am totally in love with this case. Absolutely awesome case. Well worth the money.

    Made from a Vinyl Cow!

    This is a plastic case. Great design, not leather. Poor molding of the plastic to boot.

    This has a great feel in the hand. I love that the interior is dark grey, and i figured out the trick to getting the magnets to hold the flaps folded back. When you fold it back, the short flap goes under the long flap and that's the only way the magnets hold on mine. When you have it closed it looks like a really posh journal. The leather is nice and soft, but so far isn't scratching up and I've had it about a month. The pockets are good sized, and the outside pocket has a magnet to hold it closed. I highly recommend this one!

    simple, classic, and sophisticated! LOVE IT!

    The Vasco cover made of quality leather and it has a simple yet functional design. The two pockets are great and I love the magnets on the flap. The cover does not feel bulky in your hand and the interior has a nice soft feel to it. The Nook Color fits perfectly. Initially I was a little hesitant because it was more expensive than almost all of the covers but this is well worth the money. It fits my style and personality perfectly.

    I highly recommend this cover.

    Highly recommended--I have one.

    HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: I was given a nook color by my husband for Christmas and then I picked out the cover listed. I really love the way it protects my Nook and would recommend it to anyone. I have tried to purchase one for each of my children, but it is not available at the moment. I will keep checking back.

    The best cover choice.

    I just love this cover. It offers complete protection for my color. When the tri-fold is folded back, it offers a great way to hold my nook when reading, in bed, in the car or just anywhere. I also use the pockets to carry a soft wipe to clean the screen and my quick start guide to help me. It is very soft and pliable. I can't imagine having any other cover.

    terrific cover

    This is THE best cover. It has 2 large pockets, the leather is really soft and the best part is the front cover folds back and is magnetically secured to the flap, making a platform for reading. You can alsoread with the cover open. Highly recommended.
