PROS
1. The firm outer material makes me feel comfortable throwing the sleeve into my large purse.
2. The zipper won't scratch up my MBP because the sleeve is designed with a stiff inner lip that runs the perimeter of the case.
3. I like the black color, it's classy.
4. I am able to plug in and charge my 2016 MBP while it is in the case. It isn't easy to finagle the cord into the right place with the elastic bands that are on the sides of the case, but I've gotten better at it with time.
5. It provides way more protection than the Incase sleeves that Apple sells.
6. Interestingly, my cats don't chew on the zipper pulls. I have no idea why they haven't decided to eat the case yet, but it's a good thing so I'm putting it on the list.
CONS
1. Yes, the Thule case stunk to high heaven when it arrived. The only way I can describe it is a sickeningly sweet chemical scent that burns the inside of your nostrils. The smell was strong enough to make me light-headed. But, determined to make this case work for me, I put it in front of a fan for a few days. It still smelled a little bit, but I decided that it was tolerable. After another few days, I wasn't noticing it at all. I just stuffed my face into the case (just for you guys) and took a big whiff, and there's no scent at all.
2. I feel like the inner material of the case could have been softer, maybe a microfiber material. I'm not worried about it scratching my MBP... but it feels cheap compared to the outside of the case.
Overall, I think this is a solid buy for anyone who also has aggressive, parental instincts to protect their MacBook Pro. I couldn't be happier with my buy!
Update 1/29/2021: I still love this case, and it is as durable as it was when I purchased it a few years ago. I wish I could say the same about my MacBook Pro...

It's got "stiff sides", so don't think this is a true hard side case. You can crush the contents. This case does deliver where it counts, abrasion resistance and additional drop protection (already tested off a desk and onto the concrete floor, and no damage to the chromebook). It fits snug, but not too snug. There is a little room for the chromebook to move around, but you really have to jostle the case to get the chromebook to move.
And no, I did not purchase the $30 insurance plan, I purchased this case instead.
1) The elastic bands must be folded into the crease of the laptop to prevent the elastic from catching in the zipper. This is a BIG pain that took a while to get used to. It seems like something that could be easily corrected with a design tweak. I had to develop a habit of folding the bands in before closing, but still have occasional issues.
2) There is nothing holding your laptop in the case, so it can slip out and move around when open.

Algunas personas con poco sentido común decían que los elásticos de adentro se metían en la pantalla y la pueden dañar, eso es se evita cerrando primero la computadora y después el case, anexo un video de eso. Otras personas mencionan un olor del material pero no necesito que huela a chocolate, solo quiero proteger mi computadora. Este estuche protege mi inversión, no lo arriesgaría con esos folders suaves o carcasas baratas. Lo barato sale caro. La volvería a comprar

Per quanto riguarda il design, la custodia è di un nero intenso leggermente opaco.
Avevo letto nelle altre recensioni, specialmente quelle di amazon.com, di diversi utenti che si lamentavano di un cattivo odore della custodia, effettivamente appena aperta ha lo stesso odore delle automobili nuove, ma allo stesso modo si attenua e scompare dopo qualche giorno di utilizzo.
Quando l'ho acquistata ero un po' scettico visto che in Italia non vi è modo di vederla e provarla "dal vivo" in uno store, ma dopo averla usata mi sento di consigliarla vivamente a chiunque, è in assoluto la migliore custodia che abbia provato.
