Review on MAGRVMB MagicMount Magnetic Frustration Packaging by Brian Cheney

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Doesn't last forever.

I bought it back in mid-December 2018. Most recently - in mid-April 2019 - the rear-view mirror wasn't really tight anymore. The top and bottom depth settings just don't fit the mirror snugly anymore - it's almost as if the plastic latches have worn away. This will tilt the mount up/down and slide sideways/sideways on the rearview mirror. It's far from ideal. I've long since given up on a reversing window, so I grabbed a power outlet and attached the mount directly to my rearview mirror as the latest solution to safely see GPS while driving. If I had to buy again I would buy a flat mount magnet and just attach it directly to my rearview mirror like I did on my 2012 Ford Focus Titanium hatchback. I liked the detachable aspect here, but it turns out that the product doesn't stand up to sporadic adjustments/removals. Save yourself money and headaches and choose another solution. The magnetic mount is still strong, the adjustable plastic parts aren't as strong.

Pros
