I first have to say that the first one Vivant sent me was defective. I sent them an email and they more than took care of it. Vivant makes awesome products and stands behind them. I usually don’t review products, but Vivant was so great about this case that I went and reviewed all the Vivant products I have, so far anyways. So, I got another sent to me. It works like they said. The one thing about it is that the Nomad battery lasts pretty long by itself, so the case isn’t a necessity. But it’s an handy option as it protects the small Nomad and makes it easy to find. It also holds a spare pod, which is handy if you get a thick concentrate. And it also charges the Nomad, if you ever need that.
