3.5Functionality
The Dodocase Classic simply keeps the Kindle Keyboard fully functional while encased. Propping the case for viewing is hit-or-miss, depending on the surface. The case works best for typing modes, or simply hand-held.
3.5Protection
The solid bamboo core fits the Kindle Keyboard perfectly and offers a good tradeoff between weight and protection. Lack of padding won't help against crushing impacts. Like many book bound cases, this one does well to shield the tablet against everyday wear and tear.
5.0Quality
Handmade in San Francisco, the overall construction in excellent. The natural materials mean that it might not last as long as a metal or ballistic plastic cases, but the fit and binding is perfect.
3.5Value
Sophistication doesn't come cheap, as you might expect from a handmade all-natural case. However, being able to pull out your Kindle Keyboard in the café without getting looked down on by the cute barista? Priceless.
3.9Overall: Good

The Dodocase Classic is not the hardest wearing, but definitely one of the sharpest-looking book bound tablet case designs to be had. A best case scenario for the Kindle Keyboard user looking for a little more classic credibility for their tablet.
