Interesting Facts

Tradescantia pallida was originally named Setcreasea pallida by botanist Joseph Nelson Rose in 1911. In 1975, D. R. Hunt of the Royal Botanic Garden Kew reclassified it under the genus Tradescantia. The genus name honors John Tradescant, a notable plant collector and gardener for King Charles I of England, who, along with his son, introduced many plant species to Europe. The species epithet "pallida" refers to the pale flowers of some individuals, as many species of Tradescantia have white or bright blue flowers.

Fits Logitech K950 keyboard
This case is good for the Logitech K950. It is a no-frills zippered semi hard fabric case. No mesh pockets inside, no room for that. There are two mesh pockets on the outer top, but I would not trust them to keep anything heavy secure, nor IS it secure. Those seem more of a gimmick to me. My concern was to protect the keyboard, and the case does protect that.

This is more like a rigid soft case
I wanted a keyboard and mouse to keep around and a case to keep it in while traveling. The Logitech MK955 Signature Slim Wireless Keyboard and Mouse seemed like a good choice. I saw that this case was available thought it would be a good idea to protect the keyboard and mouse. So far so good.

Beware of the off-gassing smell.
As much as I like the durable case, the ONLY complaint I have is the off-gassing. The case works great and I have no problems with it. But the smell is something terrible. My entire travel case smells horrible after coming back from a client just because this case has been transported within it. I had my coat on top of it one day and then my coat stunk. I thought if I aired it outside for a bit it would clear it up. When I take it back inside and use it again, it continues to smell. It is so offensive that I am ordering something from another company. I CANNOT say it smells similar to cigarette smoke, but can say that it smells like it has been in a smoker's home for the last 30 years and you just can't get the smell out, no matter what I do. And I tried to spray it with fresheners etc. Nothing worked. I can't use it because of this. I rated as a 2 only because of the smell. As mentioned earlier, the case itself is perfect and performs as it should.
