The last iPad case you’ll ever need
I read some reviews that say the Rugged Book makes the iPad feel a bit heavy. YES, GIVE ME ALL OF THAT! This is the Rugged Book after all. Not the “Cheap Flimsy Book”! By far the best iPad case I’ve ever owned, and I used to be a Catalyst customer. Zagg has them beat in terms of impact protection.

Awful keyboard fell off unable to put back on
I had to send back. Right after I received it and open up the case the keyboard fell off and unable to put back on. It was very hard to open. I liked the old Zagg case much better without the removable keyboard!

So far so good.
I haven't used it much. The keyboard works great. The pen holder is too loose, but works. Seems rugged enough.

Hinges performing more smoothly
The hinges are working more smoothly on this newer unit than a previous unit where the hinge resistance eventually caused the plastic portion of the hinge to fail… prompting need for a replacement unit.

Hermosa y segura funda- Muy buen teclado.
Bien robusta la funda. Muy buenos materiales. El teclado funciona muy bien y es muy sencillo conectarlo. Se puede desprender la tablet de manera fácil. Satisfecho con el producto.

Wow! Zagg Made This Keyboard and Cover To Protect
Great keyboard and cover. Zagg made this one right. I’ve had three keyboards on my iPad Pro over the past few years. This one is made to last and provides outstanding protection. Hinge much improved over previous version that I owned. The only thing missing is a track pad. Easy set up via Bluetooth. Unit is a bit heavy but worth it for the added protection. Perfect fit ...

It's ok.
It appears to be good solid protection. The keyboard works well. It is difficult to adjust the tilt of the screen. It doesn't seem to sit in the hinge very securely, and the hinge is firm, so it's difficult to adjust without pulling the iPad out of the hinge. Also, it would be nice to be able to set the iPad in the hinge in portrait position, but that is not possible.

Reliable case and keyboard for iPad
I have owned multiple rugged books for my iPads and my wife's iPads over the years, and I have always been very happy with it's performance, including a very long battery life.

Top Notch!
I finally had to replace my original Zagg rugged book after my granddaughter cracked it five years ago by dropping it on some rocks. The crack ultimately exposed the hinge as I kept using my IPad but, seriously, there was no question in my mind I would replace the cover with the exact same thing. This rugged book cover survived four grandkids and numerous vacations. ...

Awesome.
I had one of these for my iPad 6, and I knew I wanted one for my new iPad when I got it. Of every existing keyboard case, this one is the closest to making your ipad like a real laptop, with sufficient protection to boot. There's a slight delay when you first begin typing, but it's not a big enough deal compared to all the positives to knock down a star. 100% recommend!...

Zagg iPad Cover
I’ve been using this Zagg Rugged Book going on about 8 years, and I really like it. I buy it mostly for the cover. It fits my iPad nice and tight, and it’s not too bulky. The Black Friday price was great too!

Excellent and Reliable Keyboard iPad Cover
After some time using the lighter weight Keyboard Cover for my iPad, I decided to upgrade. I am exceptionally pleased with the Rugged Book cover for my Gen 10 iPad. Ultimate convenience with the multi-position opening of the iPad enclosed top, the freedom to remove top from keyboard to use as a stand alone iPad and easily reattach, the lighted keyboard is perfect for lo...

Very solid
A little heavier than I anticipated but it’s ok, feels sturdy. Keyboard feels good, not flimsy.

Mostly great. The one we ordered is fine. The one prior has a jacked up hinge and doesn’t open properly

Like it but so far can’t click it in.
It’s very rugged and does the job it was designed for. But so far I cannot properly fit my iPad into the zagg.

This is my second.
This is my second rugged book for iPad. Both were very sturdy and did the job. Keyboard works well. The downside is that it is heavier than the iPad itself. but I'd rather have the weight than a broken iPad.

A good choice with room for improvement
As far as the detachable keyboard aspect goes, I like it, although it is a little tough to set the ipad back into the keyboard hinge correctly. The keyboard itself works well so far. Being able to put it on both ways for using the iPad like a little movie theater stand one way as well as doing work on it is awesome. But the case on the ipad itself is disappointing. I wa...

Doesn’t close completely
This is the second rugged book in a row that never closes all the way unless I manually push the hinge. The problem occurs because the iPad slides out slightly from the groove holding it; there not tight enough of a hold that the hinge comes all the way forward when you close it.
