Does anyone have this? Is it easy to put on?

It sure took me awhile to find it... but here's the link:  For $4.99 it seems like it'd be a worthwhile addition to a skin order, although I'm hesitant to put anything on my screen that might add glare. Hopefully someone with direct experience with this product will post something more helpful! =) |

I don't think very many members use screen protectors, but surely some do! Anyone want to weigh in?

I've never put anything over my Kindle screen. I would be worried about the glare.
My only experience with a screen protector has been on my cell phone. When the back light is out, it's shiny enough to use as a mirror!

I tried it - my granddaughter had scratched the screen of my Kindle & I hoped the screen protector would make the scratch less noticeable. It did, actually - but I messed up when I was applying it and I got a little fuzz on it, so there were areas where it didn't stick as well. Eventually I took it off. But it didn't cause any glare at all, it has almost a matte finish, and made very little difference in readability. So I'd recommend it, but be sure the screen is really clean & be really careful of flying pet hair, dust, lint, etc when you get ready to apply it.

Good point Meemo, I saw in another post somewhere on this board I think, that the perfect place to apply screen protectors is in a closed bathroom after it's been steamed up from the shower. All the steam supposedly removes the dust particles from the air or something... take that advice for how much it cost you - nothing! =)

That's interesting, Jason, I would never have thought of that!
