I bought this for my GPS because it is illegal in CA to mount GPS or phone to front window, and the air vent connectors I have been using block air flow. This works fine. It is pretty stable but when I am making a sharp turn I do have a tendency to reach out and hold it in place as it does slip a little. That said, I can see the GPS screen a LOT better than I could when it was mounted to air vents on center of dash.

Dash Mount travels well

I bought this in conjunction with a iPhone grip that was designed for windshield mount. I don't like the sticky residue left on a windshield but this mount is so much better. I can sit it on the dash and move it where I want it or if I don't need it I can take it down. I liked it so much that I bought another one that I put in my backpack or luggage. One word of caution though - if you put it in your carry-on luggage take it out to go on through the security scan. It is so dense that they will need to wipe it down to make sure it's not a block of explosive material. When I take it out and send it through on the belt by itsself I usually don't have any problem.

I bought this to mount our Rand McNally GPS to the dash of our Semi truck. The GPS came with a suction cup mount that fastens to the windshield, but it was obstructing our view. Also we would have to take it off of the windshield at night because it was in the way of our privacy curtain. I was very delighted with this product. It does not slide around on the dash and the suction cup on our GPS mounts right up to it without any problems. I wasn't sure if it would really hold our navigation system, but it does a great job and we are pleased with the quality.

I am geographically and directionally challenged - I rely on my GPS. I also live in AR, where it does get HOT and many times I found my GPS had fallen off the windshield. And my Prius doesn't have the right dash to have it stick too - and then I found the Dash Mount!!! Now, it still gets so hot it does fall off, but only to the dash, not all the way to the floor - and I can position it just about anywhere on my dash, so that's a bonus too!!!

This is a great dash pad. I like the small footprint. It fits well in the contours of my dashboard. It also clings well to the dashboard. I've stopped suddenly and it doesn't slide around.

This Nav-Mat replaces a round one that we had, This rectangular mount fits/stays on the dashboard much better, and I can place it in a location that does not block my line-of-sight

I bought this because of it's size. It fits in the recess on top of the dash of my Grand Cherokee and F-150. Seems to be well made so far.

Easy to use. Hold the GPS unit with no problems. Just a warning... We flew to Arizona with it. I had it in my carry on. I got my bag searched because of the sand in the base. I was told any time I fly with it my bag will be searched.

For years I put off buying one of these. I should have bought one sooner. This dash mount is weighty, and more than able to securely hold in-place your GPS or smartphone on your dash. No need to worry about it sliding around, nor having to mark up your windshield anymore with suction cups. Great buy!

The items appears well made, is visually pleasing (though it only comes in black), and stays where I put it on the dash. For this I give it 5's in 3 or the 4 categories.
HOWEVER, under "Ease of set up", [I include "Ease of use" in this], I can only give the unit a 3. Why??? This GPS mount unit wants to use the suction cup mount that comes with the GPS unit itself. And due to the weight of my GPS unit {a TomTom 1600m}, the suction cup mount is Worthless, and so is the mount point on this unit.
Is there a FIX??? My fix for this problem was to buy some velcro large enough to cover the entire suction cup and then glues the velcro to both the suction cup and to the mounting unit. [I used E6100 glue]. This works great and is, if needed, the GPS unit can be removed from the base.
I looked at a lot of different dash mount units on many different web sites. There were less expensive ones and more expensive one. As far a I can tell they all function the same, so it's just person taste.
For me this unit works great. I use it in both my 87 Vette and my 92 GMC pick up so as you can see, it works in a wide variety of vehicles.

Nothing to put together, just pushed the sticky park of the TomTom windshield mount onto the pad, put the pad on the dashboard and drove away.

I thought it would slide all over the dashboard. However, it only moves slightly on extreme turns. Also, my GPS sticks to it very well.
