I know what your mean i have used the 11in air and its well constructed feels really solid. Plus it has that bead blasted finish that should be better for scratches.
My daughter has the same machine. Yes, it scratches easily, but but its a sturdy machine that has held up well to 3 years of use and abuse by a teenager including frequent carry to school.
