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. I did find it worked great for giving the GPS a stable platform and used it on top of the parking brake. I just wish I could have used it as it was intended.

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

I had been using a windshield suction-mount arm with my GPS and always found it difficult to position "just right" and virtually impossible to just hand over to my passenger.

"This is the perfect way to use your Garmin. You can easily detatch the Garmin from this mount for removal from the car while leaving the cord and mounting in the car. I usually just pick mine up off the dashboard and place it on the floor - so no ugly suction cup marks on the window. I love mine …"  Read Full Review »

"My wife purchased me a Garmin nuvi 650 for Christmas .

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 »
