Dr*Mo 12" Notebook Sleeve Review (w/XPS M1210)

This is my first review so please forgive me if it sucks . Also my camera is horrible at still non-flash shots, but I made sure that the pictures depicted what I was trying to say even though it was a bit blurry.

I ordered the Dr*Mo 12" Laptop Sleeve (Memory Foam) for just $20 from jetpens.com. If you order $25+ worth of stuff you get free shipping. I added a nice pen to my cart to get free shipping. The free shipping is USPS. They are located in Northridge, CA. My sleeve came very quickly since I live in socal as well. It comes in a normal USPS bag package and is protected by a plastic sleeve as well.


Here are a few shots of it:

As you can see, it looks very much like the Shinza Zeroshock sleeve.

Next, I put my M1210 (6 Cell) in it to see how well it fit and how difficult it was to zip up. Initially I had a hard time, but I think it just needs some breaking in. After I zipped and unzipped about 3-4 times it was pretty easy to get it to fit again. The memory foam is rather stretchy and easily conforms to the shape of the notebook. So you kinda have to squish/squeeze down the memory foam in. I have to admit it is not something that you can do very quickly.


Example of squish/squeeze:

As you can see, the sleeve will not zip up because the corners are poking out.

So you have to push down on the memory foam to (easily) force it to wrap around the corners, then you can zip it up with no problems.

The protection and cushiony feel of the sleeve is very reassuring. The sleeve does not place much pressure onto the lid of the notebook. I really like the memory foam. I don't think it'll have any problems sitting my backpack.

Unfortunately, I did not order a spare 9 cell so I can't tell you guys how well it does with that. Perhaps you could stretch it out some more so it could fit the 9 cell, but looking at the pictures I'm not too sure if you guys want to do that.

For more reference there are a few posts I'd like to share with you guys:
For a second opinion on the Dr*Mo scroll down to read ikari47's post (the first page talks about the Zeroshock sleeve if you are interested.)
Memory Foam "Action" of the Dr*Mo there are also some product reviews

Lastly, if you guys have any questions or want more/better pictures, I would be happy to help you guys out. NBR has been a great place for me to research all my notebook needs, I just wanna do my best to contribute !
