Great! exactly what I wanted.
This cover is pretty great. Yeah, the keys are a little bit off, which creates an odd 3D-effect when the computer is the only light in the room, but it's really not a big deal. I love the color, and it protects my keyboard exactly like I wanted it to. Only comments are that it's a little bit more tiring on the hands to type now. really muffles the sound of typing substantially, though. It could be a little thicker, though I'm satisfied that this is sufficient enough to protect from mild water damage. Overall, great for the price, arrived fast- i'm a happy customer. Fits perfectly and creates a nice seal on the keyboard. Easy to use as well- just pop it on the computer.

What i expected
I just received my red keyboard cover in the mail 2 days ago. So far, I like it.A few things:The price- perfect!It came really fast!I ordered red. I love the color; it's vibrant and really really red! :)I love the silicone touch; it's not sticky at all. Very soft.So far the fit is perfect and snug. I will use it for a while and update this post after a couple of months.The letters are slightly off, but, I had to look REALLY hard to see that. However, I have not yet used it in the dark. So I have not experienced the backlight off lettering issue. I will update my post when I do.It did come in a larger then regular sized envelope. It was folded and in a small plastic bag. I did not have a permanent fold like someone else mentioned.

Looks great!
I got a red one and a black one for my Unibody MacBook Pro. I love the red it makes my laptop pop out! The black I bought as well so when I go somewhere public and don't want any attention on my laptop I put the black one on.When the back light for the keyboards are lit, the light for the letters are drowned out, but it shines through the sides where the silicone keyboard cover is smokey clear.It is nice to touch and typing is much more quieter.And it does fit. The cover doesn't come off at all it fits into the dip/groove of the perimeter of the keyboard.

Do not get this
It makes your keyboard look pretty and colorful is all. The text doesn't line up too well. After a while the material seems to have stretched or expanded (maybe due to sitting on my laptop when it would heat up a bit while I was running programs) so now when I put it on it doesn't fit well.It may be cheap but still, I wouldn't even bother.

Perfect
Just got my cover in the mail yesterday and it's perfect.I've been reading previous reviews and was a bit worried about the packaging/fit. But, IVEA must've took the complaints from here to heart. They packaged the keyboard cover in this super nifty apple-esque box that unrolled the silicone keyboard perfectly flat.The F5 and F6 buttons are now properly printed on. When I turn the backlight on, the lettering on the keyboard and the lettering on my macbook matches up. Not to mention the backlight looks really cool with the red cover. Even close up, the keyboard to my macbook looks like I personally painted the keys red then painstakingly drew on the white letters.Typing with the cover is incredibly easy. There's no learning curve. The keys just feel softer to your fingertips. When you're in a place like the library, it's also nice that the clickity-clackety noise is muffled so that it won't bother the other people around you.Best of all, the cover doesn't slide around! I turned my keyboard upside down and only the bottom left edge comes down a little bit.This thing is great.Edit: I've had this cover for a couple of months and I'm still satisfied with my purchase. There's one quirk that I would like to note though. You can't tell when the caps lock is turned on or off with the cover over the keys. The nice, useful green light can't be seen through the thick silicone. That is a major downer. Otherwise, the keyboard cover and keyboard are still in ship shape!

Great looking but not long lasting
This is a great keyboard cover for a while. It fits well at first, and helps to protect your keys. If you don't mind replacing in a few months, this is a great option, and honestly, at the price, you can probably do just that.The color is great, and really helps your computer stand out. If you are someone who needs the letters on your keyboard in order to type, this might not be the best choice. The letters don't line up perfectly with the letters on your keyboard, so that might be annoying, especially if you have the keyboard lit up.Once it starts stretching out (which took a few months for me) the cover is essentially useless, and frankly, quite irritating. It still might help to keep out liquids, dust, etc, but is very distracting when it slides all around. Before it wears out, however, it feels just like a regular keyboard (with a different texture, of course) and doesn't hinder typing at all.Overall, this is a great cover if you are mainly looking for an aesthetic change, but you might be better off if you are mostly concerned about functionality.

Fantastic look and feel, with a couple issues.
Overall I think this is a decent product. The material of this cover has a nice feel and also helps reduce the noise when typing. If you are a touch typist be warned this cover doesn't have the normal F and J bumps on the home row. This isn't critical, but can be annoying if you switch between keyboards often and/or use the bumps to realign your fingers whilst typing. As others have noted, the keys don't line up preciously but this is pretty common amongst keyboard covers. Similarly, the caps lock key light doesn't shine though this cover.the good:-Good fit-Easy to clean-Protects keys-Cheapthe bad:-No home row bumps-Makes the back-light feature mostly useless (including the caps lock light)
