Hinge quality/durability on 13" Air?

I am at the end process of choosing a new laptop. I'm down to the 13" Pro or Air. I'd really like the Air but I went up to Best Buy to look at both and the Air's hintge seemed like it would surely break over repeated use or if you put a bit too much pressure when opening or closing it. Have you had any issues with the hinge on this thing?

I have read a handful of posts in here about the hinge coming loose on the MacBook Air. I haven't come across any in the MacBook Pro forum.
