The ESV Thinline Trutone Bible is really a nice bible. The font is easily read, it lays open nice, the words of Christ are in red, the Trutone cover is flexible, and also very attractive. It is comfortable to hold, and small enough to carry to carry around. I highly recommend it.

This was a gift for my son - the cover was brown/cordovan with portfolio design, Imitation Leather. it looked and felt great. And he was very happy with it. We did notice that some of the pages on the front did not get cut correctly and so all the edges were colored and rounded except for 10-15 pages on the front. I believe it was likely a quality control issue but supprised it was not caught. We figure it made it more unique and individual. but it was worth a mention. Otherwise the printing and text were clear and the ESV version is one of my favorites and the size is perfect for everyday use.

The EVS thinline trutone Bible that I purchased is of excellent quality. The print is not too small. The cover is soft & pliable. After I bought the first one, I bought additional ones for other family members.

Ideal size, font, color, etc. The ESV is my go to version and having it in this slimline is so easy to tote around everywhere. I have bought my husband at least 5 so far! He keeps one until he gives it away then goes to his back up Bible.

This is a beautiful bible. The imitation leather is supple and durable. I have a genuine leather Classic Reference which is not nearly as flexible in the hand. This bible is an excellent "reader," and at the price can't be beat.

The Bible has a nice cover and is of nice quality. It is certainly worth the cost. However it is NOT a large print version. The box I received mine in stated that it is 8.2pt text. The ISBN on the box shows the correct number but the details and samples shown on the CBD site are not correct. It also did not come with any CD software that was listed in the bulleted section of the sample box bottom they show. However CBD has agreed to send me a return shipping label if that is what I desire. I have always received good service from CBD.

I have been using the ESV translation for about a year and a half now, and it has become my preferred translation. This edition looks and feels like something that would cost a lot more. I've only had it for about a day and already love it.

I own well over a dozen Bible's, but this beautiful ESV Thinline Trutone Bible has to be my new favorite Bible in my collection. This is the Bible I now use for church and for my preaching. I also own the ESV Study Bible which is a must have for any serious student of Scripture.

I LOVE this Bible. Out of all of the Bibles I've owned this is by far my favorite. It speaks to me in a way a new translation would, while maintaining the integrity of the original text. There is enough room in the margin for notes, and it's easy to flip through and locate passages!
