Reviews for Moshi ClearGuard Keyboard Protector for Aluminum MacBook and MacBook Pro

I just bought this product and its perfect. It stays in place and looks almost invisible. Typing is no problem and it is very easy to get used to. It is made from TPU plastic seems durable. Time will tell to see how well it wears and how washable it is.

I have had several brands of keyboard covers and this is by far the best one I've used. It has an extremely low profile and fits like a glove. The low profile is great because on some of the other brands I have used, the cover sticks up and touches the screen. Great product!

Bought this protector at the Apple Store, previously i bought a cheap silicone cover and i throw it away the same day, but moshi is a dream come true.

You get protection from dust, hair (i doubt you can protect a macbook keyboard from a cup of coffee but they say so) and fingerprints, the cloudy look goes away if you clean it SOFTLY and NEVER use SOAP, got 2 months with mine and i love it. Way too expensive but i had some cash to burn anyway...

I just purchased the Moshi ClearGuard for my new MacBook and I am so glad that I did. The product is really great, I have no problems thus far with it. It is really thin and does not impede on my typing whatsoever. You can still clearly see the backlighting through the cover. In my opinion the cover is great, I really enjoy the feel of typing with it plus it is so simple to remove and clean. Would highly recommend the product.

First off, for those of you worried about this keyboard protector leaving some kind of imprint on the display (which is what I was most worried about) -- don't be worried! It's made out of a minimally sticky material that does not really attract dust or dirt, which therefore, keeps the dust and dirt from your display! It's a great product!

At first, it didn't seem to fit exactly right, but it took a day or two for it to settle in, I guess, because it now fits perfectly, doesn't slip off when I move the laptop around and works great! It doesn't stick to my fingers, but it does come up off the keyboard a tiny bit when I hit the delete button or the right arrow key, but I think that is because I tend to press the key and move my finger a little bit, pulling the cover up with my finger.

The texture of the cover is great! It is not sticky at all, just feels like textured plastic. It's a hard feeling to explain, but it is really nice.

Overall, I would rate this a perfect 5 stars! It does exactly what it's supposed to and, for me, actually makes me enjoy typing even more! For one, I know my keyboard is safe from spills or dirt of any kind AND I just like the softer feeling of the keys! Second, my keys will look good as new forever!

For the record, I have the Retina MacBook Pro and this cover still works great with that. Moshi did a wonderful job with this product! I haven't noticed any "overheating" issues, but will update my review if I do!

I type super fast so when i slapped this skin on and went as fast as possible, didn't have any errors or issues.. by far best keyboard cover out there... and reusable, its worth the nickel when your protecting your couple thousand dollar investment..

Cheers!

I ordered this along with my purchase for the 13" Macbook Pro Late 2011. It arrived to the apple store, picked it up and I am typing with it on my macbook as I rate this product. I love it! :)

just picked this up at my university bookstore

its actually exactly as people say, i can barely feel it. you can barely see it, its not lifting up as a lot of people say it is

i am a fast typer and its not riseng up at all, of course there is a difference, there is a 0.1 mm thin material so yes your fingers will feel a very very slight difference but trust me, its barely there

very very worth it.

My wife got one for her new MacBook Pro and now I'm getting one for mine. Enough said! More specifically, I like it because it's super thin and, unlike what one negative review noted, it does not stick to our fingers when we type with it or lift away from the keys. My only regret is not buying it 18 months ago when my MBP was brand new; Lord knows how much dust and lint is in my keyboard already.

I love my keyboard cover/protector. It was definitely worth buying because I can type and use the keyboard just like I could prior to applying the cover onto it. It seemed to adhere itself to the keyboard flawlessly within a couple of days or so of me using it. I don't have to worry about trying to blow out crumbs, dust, or other normal particles out of the keyboard itself, I just take off the cover and wash it (takes less than a minute to do so), dry it with paper towels, and reapply to the keyboard. Voila! No more particles.

My only issue with the product, and this is completely my fault, is that as I was reading out of a heavy book that was propped up on my laptop towards the bottom 2 rows of the keyboard, I didn't realize that I had pushed up part of the cover from those rows and it was folded kinda inward under my book for at least a few hours (if not more). After that, a small part of the cover that lays on the space bar lifts up a little exposing that area to the possibility of letting in particles and whatever else the cover is supposed to prevent from letting in. However, it hasn't been an problem so far, and I know that if I hadn't stretched it like that for such a long period of time, it would still have been perfect for a long time. I would definitely recommend this product to family and friends without hesitation.
