Great Idea But Not in Practice

"This was a neat idea with the product having a nonskid bottom, being weighted, and having an easily adjustable bean bag fill BUT it is not stable when on a dash.

So good I was jealous!

★★★★★
5.0

"I bought this mount after seeing it in action in a rental car (with rented GPS).

Prior to the suction mount, I had also tried …"  Read Full Review »

"I purchased this friction mount because I need to move to CA, in which they say mounting the GSP on front windows is illegal, which does not make sense to me but I have to obey... Anyway, I bought it. I used it. I love it... But please make sure you get the right mount for your GSP. "

Excellent Decision

★★★★★
5.0

"I used my Nuvi 360 with the winshield mount and it kept coming off driving from NC to FL. When I was in FL, I purchased this Auto Friction Mount and it was the best decision I made. My GPS stayed in one spot on the Dash, did not move an inch; especially making sharp turns. It stayed in one spot driv …"  Read Full Review »

"I originally bought this because of the crazy Californian restriction/prohibition on windshield mounted devices. In hindsight, it was better than the windshield sucker mount that came with the unit. When I tried placing it in the middle of the dashboard of my rented car, it held its position well ev …"  Read Full Review »

"Pros

I replaced my windshield mount with this friction mount. My windshield mount wouldn't stay stuck to the windshield. I would be driving along and my Garmin would fall off the mount and crash onto the dash! Not good!

The friction mount is non-skid and stays put on the dash. Great adjustable desi …"  Read Full Review »
