This is not a very well constructed product. It is already out of alignment when you close it and I have only had it a couple of weeks. I have had other cases for years before this happens and only after someone sat on my case. When I am reading I will sometimes leave the case open on my nightstand. The first night I kept hearing a popping noise and realized that when the case is left open it will make this noise. It is very annoying. Makes me wonder what it is about it that is doing this. I believe it is the lining coming unglued.  It may look cute but that is about all. The outside material easily scuffs also.
