Cover feels very delicate. I just have to handle it like a piece of equipment and be gentle. Not a con, though. Picked it up when they had a Christmas sale and it was well discounted. I would have gone with a cheaper version otherwise.
I love this thing; Scans fast, clear and crisp
Cover is not heavy enough to press anything flat if you need to scan that sort of thing; I do from time to time, but put a book on the top
