iSkin Keyboard Cover Review for MacBook Pro
I think we’ve all had a secret fear that a drink will be spilled on our laptop and ruin everything. Or perhaps I’m just weird like that. In any case, I decided to finally get a keyboard cover for my Macbook Pro, and decided to share my thoughts after using it for two days.
Do you use a keyboard cover? Do you think it’s worth it?

Thanks for the video, I was actually thinking about getting one…however I guess if i spilled something on my laptop, I would probably say I deserved it, especially after all those computer lab teachers in high school brain washing us about the prohibitions of brings food and drinks into the lab.
hehe…Yeah, i’m going solo at the moment and just trying to be careful. I haven’t shut it out, though. If I find a really good one I might go for it.
I purchased one at the Mac store that is clear. Although it took a few minutes to get used to, I didn’t experience the problems you had with slower typing and more mistakes. Being clear it also lets the light shine no problem. The only issue I have had it is does seem to muffle the sound since I have a 13″ Macbook Pro.
I have had mine for about a year and love it. I pull it off rinse it off let it dry and put it back on. Keeps my keyboard nice and clean.
Mine is made by Marware.
Hmmm…thanks for this Chris. I did see that they had a completely clear one there at the mac store. That might have been it. I’m gonna check it out. Thx!
Actually, do you know the specific model of it? I looked on the marware site and they have a few.
I looked and cant see a model number on it. The only markings are Marware. Since I have had it about a year I dont remember. Sorry about that.

I’ve had my 17 inch Macbook Pro for about 3 months now. While I’ve had some minor issues with it, overall it’s been great. I love how the keyword lights up so I can see at night. I’d recommend it to anyone who does design work.

Ummm…..apreciate you letting me know that you like your MacBook Pro. What does that have to do with my review, though? I think I’ll delete your comment in a few cause it just seems scammy. Just trying to get some more eyeballs on your blog so you can make some adsense money?
This is a very good keyboard skin but it does not come with a palm rest protector. With using this keyboard skin alone, it is good enough. While for palm rest area, I prefer one that with adhesive and stick well in position. I get mine from http://www.skinstyler.com/classic-wrist-cover-page-20.html (with my name on it). It work like charm with the keyboard skin and both protecting my macbook pro.
Robert, this seems on the border of being “spammy” but I’ll leave it up.
Rodlie, just my 2 cent worth comment :p
Yeah, no problem…
