User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars works in Mazda5 & Pacifica
I got this after reading the reviews and it didn’t disappoint. I recently used it on a 8 hour road trip in a Chrysler Pacifica and it worked perfectly. It’s also perfect in my Mazda5.

5 Stars Very steardy but little bulky
I bought this after my window mount (that came with my GARMIN GPS) broke. I never liked the idea of window mount. It used to always fall down if I break hard. This one is easy to use, put on dashboard. Very steardy, doesn’t move at all (even if I take sharp turns). It fits perfectly in Mitsubishi Galant. Only problem with this is, it’s little bulky. But for durability, I would not mind it’s weight. It is worth the price.

5 Stars Garmin friction mount
I love this friction mount vs the mount that came in the box. You can move it anywhere, and you can hide it out of view

Nhuthuy

5 Stars Garmin should have included this instead of the windshield mount
After using my Garmin Nuvi 350 GPS for over a year while mounted in the suction cup based windshield mount, the mount finally broke at the pivoting point. I used epoxy in a futile attempt to restore it. While looking for a new one I came across this mount but wasn’t sure it wouldn’t slide off the dash. Not to worry, it seems to stay where I place it on either of my cars. It’s easier to hide the mount on the floor compared to the windshield mount when parking and the flexibility of positions is much better. No more rubber marks on the inside of my windshields and more importantly, no more GPS popping off into my lap while driving as the windshield warms up.

5 Stars A revolutionary idea
This is the answer to anyone who has a GPS, and parks their vehicle where others can see that you have one, inside. I had a GPS stolen from my car, because I, mistakenly, left it on my windshield, because it was so hard to get it to stay on my windshield, that when I finally firmly secured it, I wanted to leave it there. This holder is stable, very portable, easy to store, and leaves no mark, to show that there is a GPS, in your vehicle.
