This Thule case is amazing! Discussion of the stinky smell/UPDATE 2021

This Thule case is amazing! Discussion of the stinky smell/UPDATE 2021
I spent months looking for the perfect sleeve or carrying case for my 13" MacBook Pro. I ended up deciding on this sleeve after checking the laptop bag selection at Best Buy. Sure, it's a little expensive for what you get, but it's perfect for me. I will also discuss the "horrible smell" that everyone is talking about, because my case was very stinky when it arrived.PROS1. 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.CONS1. 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...

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Sturdy and Great Protection
Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2016
This carrying case finally met all requirement and exceeded them. It is very well put together, a quality product that is built to last. The seams are nice and tight, the zipper is durable (i have had issued were the zipper breaks and the sleeve is a pain to open). It is pretty rugged on the outside so it can take drops and the constant dangers that arise from travelling with it as far as wear and tear and accidental drops. The inside compartment has sufficient padding to provide a good amount of shock protection. Last but not least it has nice modern and almost architectural design, very sharp. If you want to protect your tablet than this is the case for you. As you can see by the pictures it has dents and scratches but it has protected my surface pro each and every time

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente para MacBook Air M1
Reviewed in Mexico on July 11, 2021
Lo mejor que he visto después de mucho investigar!!! Para la nueva MacBook Air 2020 con chip M1 modelo A2337 queda excelente, es semi rígida lo que la hace ligera y fuerte. Tenia mis dudas por el tamaño y algunas personas que decían quedaba justa pero para este modelo queda excelente, la pantalla se puede abrir al 100% y la funda se ajusta, el jack de audio queda libre y uno de los 2 puertos thunderbolt queda también libre habría que sacar la computadora para usar los 2 puertos al mismo tiempo pero un dongle con cable como el que tengo es perfecto. Lo golpee contra la mesa para ver la rigidez y protege el equipo contra los golpes de todos lados que es lo mas importante para mi. Nunca la sacaré de este estuche porque así puedo trabajar con ella en cualquier lugar.
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
