Customers are saying

Customers commend the Portable Auto Friction Mount for its stability and ease of use, finding it holds their GPS devices securely and fits well. Many appreciate that it's easy to position and doesn't leave marks on the dashboard or windshield. However, some customers feel the price is high for what it offers and express concerns about the adhesive's ability to maintain a strong hold in all situations.

    I got tired of my new GPS dropping onto my dash while using the included windshield mount. Picked this up on sale and so far it works. It has a semi-sticky bottom and there is little to no movement with this, while on my dashboard (2006 Odyssey). It looks a little bulky but it folds nicely. We'll see how well everything works after more uses but for now I'm very happily surprised at this purchase.

    This friction mount for my new GPS is great. I'm able to place it on my dash wherever I want so it is visible without blocking my view. But best of all, there are no circles left on my window advertising that I have something worth stealing.

    This is very secure. It never moves or slides when sitting on the car dash. I am buying a second one so that I have one in both cars.

      We are sorry to hear this mount didn't work out for your daughter's car. Since this mount didn't fit, if you're still looking for an alternate mount to the suction cup mount, you may be interested in the Air Vent Mount. Please keep in mind that this mount is only compatible with air vents with horizontal slats.

      The part number for the Air Vent Mount is 010-11952-00.

    I liked this mount until I found out that it leaves unremovable silicon residue on the dashboard. I tried to remove the shiny silicon stain with every possible cleaning agent, but no success ! If you are concerned about this then do not buy it

      Thank you for reaching out to us through this review. You can use "sticker shock" or "goo-gone" to help with the removal of the adhesive without damaging the surface. Please see the FAQ found in this link: http://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/simpleCase.htm?caseId={813de6e0-1544-11dd-dc9c-000000000000}&kbName=garmin. Thank you! ~QKO Garmin

    This is the best devise, as mounting on windshield of car may fall in many times. SO, this kind of devise is the best and relible

    even though the stand stays where it is put you get the vibrations of the road and car and the GPS vibrates with it.
