If properly secured in bag and zipped up its a high probability your Mac will be protected. My opinion only but it's a darn solid bag

In my opinion, I feel like this bag would protect my laptop in a fall much more likely than my regular work bag that I carry everyday. I can't tell you that it will protect your laptop 100% since I am very careful with my Mac and pray that I don't have to find out. I know accidents happen so I am hoping that my investment with this bag will protect my MacBook Pro.

I only had for a week. I cannot tell you if it will protect the device. I did drop once but it was on carpet.

I can't accurately answer that question since I bought the black case. If my hands are moist, then they leave finger marks on my case. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase a lighter case though since I wouldn't expose my mac to a dirty environment or near where we eat or have beverages.

Actually even if it can stand on edge I would recommend you put it down, just incase if you knock the table side way motion will do less damage to hard drives.

I Recently dropped mine while exiting my car (It was on my lap). It fell about 4 feet onto the road. Through these same circumstances I have lost 3 screens (iPhone 5). But, all it did is scuff up a corner of the Outer ring but no real damage.

That is a valid concern. It is not particularly stable. I would not leave my laptop unattended on it, particularly if cats are a worry. I also do not like this table in general. I never use it. I bought a simpler bamboo table with a built in fan at the Mac Store. Works much better. This table was a good idea in theory, but in practice, it doesn't work at all well.

This is really hard to drop lol and it does have room for adapter and if you somehow did drop it I think the protection is pretty decent. I have a MacBook Air so keep that in mind

The black plastic provides great protection from scratches and scuffs. I'm not sure the case would be most effective against a drop. What is more concerning is that the handle is not sturdy. I used mine for about a month, 5 days a week, 5-7 hours per day ... the handle loosened and eventually the screws fell out. If you buy this case, do so directly from the manufacturer because they have a great warranty (keep your receipt). I bought mine from a 3rd party vendor and the manufacture warranty was voided. I hope this helps.

I recommend something much more padded. If dropped it will not protect your computer. It is more for looks than anything. Hope that helps.

It wont fall off easily unless you flip your laptop upside down alot. It is water and food proof but just dont let it drip off the sides.

I believe this rubberized case will absorb a lot of shock but if it falls a certain way, your screen will break. For example, as long as you don't land your ipad mini screen on a rock, you are fine:)

It looks and feels like it could protect it from a decent drop, say 5-6ft. I wouldn't jump on it but it looks like it is solid. There's no way you'll have a scratch. It's lined with a wool like layer that is really soft.

I haven't drop it yet on a hard floor, so I don't know yet if this cover will protect it from breaking the glass. I dropped it on a carpeted area. It didn't break.

It is a plastic case, so it offers some protection but I wouldn't consider it "safe from a fall". The screen sits in a slot provided for it...it can move if jostled.

I'm sure it's possible to fall from anything due to human error, but I have not had this issue. I've lost balance once or twice trying to lean over to grab something off a table, but in these cases I should have just stepped down. I've played video games while on this for three and half hours before, simply because I forgot I was on it. If I can lose myself in a video game while using it and not fall, you should be fine. It is a really good product and I am 100% satisfied.

Hi. I actually just tried it to see what would happen. I'm not sure if I need you to sign some kind of agreement that you won't sue me if something bad happens to your laptop but here goes anyway. Now not sure if you saw my review but I give you fair warning that I'm not entirely sure I put the stand together correctly. However it holds paper so seems to be right. I only say this because I saw a response that said you can't tilt the desk (top) all the way back but I can. So I either assembled it wrong or that person is wrong. Anyway I was able to to tilt it totally level and put my laptop on it (I have a 15in macbook). It's sturdy in the middle where the stand joins the top but it's a bit wobbly from side to side. However it bore the weight without anything happening (I only tested it for about a minute). I think it's a little risky because there's nothing keeping it on the stand if someone were to ever accidentally knock into it. And again it is wobbly from side to side. I think you could risk it but I wonder if there's something slightly better out there for that purpose. Honestly my vote is that it's wobbly enough to make me too uncomfortable. Do you have iPad? That would work perfectly with the stand in the correct position.
