One of the few vent mounts I can trust

I was hesitant to buy ANOTHER vent mount but most of the other mounts I've tried are lackluster. Also, on my carโ€”a Chevy Cobalt (model year doesn't matter here, all dashboards seem the same)โ€”the vent mounts are at the perfect height for looking at the phone without obscuring the windshield. In any case, most of the vent clips were too flimsy to hold the phone (with or without the case) to the point where the mount could either fall off or the vents could be damaged (one of them damaged the vertical vents where it was No rotates longer) along with others), or in the case of the last mount, the magnetic mount will detach and the phone will slide off. I've had good luck with what I call slot load mounts (stick your phone in) so I gave it a try. Interaction with the vent is minimal and keeps it tight. I had a bit of trouble finding the perfect mounting point for this, but that's to be expected, especially with these "universal" rigs - not all cars are created equal, so don't expect these mounts to be a perfect fit. at the first try. Once I attached it, it stopped moving. After tightening the dial on the back once, the corner of the phone didn't move. It works perfectly. Having to "press" the phone to activate the locking mechanism took some getting used to, but that's hardly a criticism and I'm very happy with this purchase.
