Dod cases used to hold up. I had an issue with my iPad 2 with a bamboo break, but that was understandable as it was wood. I have purchased a few over the years and never had an issue, until this one. The plastic that is used for the tray is too brittle and broke within a week. I no longer trust the case and have started to use an old Otterbox instead. What is the point is a case, if it can't withstand everyday wear.
