Broke in less than 3 months

I bought this at the end of April, it worked fine until yesterday when the suction cup came loose from the metal spring. I understand the product was quite cheap but I expected it to last longer. My original, which I received with the GPS, has lasted over 5 years with very regular use.

Pros
  • 100% brand new, made of plastic, very strong and durable
Cons
  • Not sure

Small sphere: GPS, finder and accessories

The only problem is that the sphere is slightly smaller than previous models. I don't know why but it was a looser fit than the first one I ordered (lost it).

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Almost never

Excellent replacement for the original

Excellent replacement! Looks and feels like the original GPS stand. I bought this for my GPS parents because they broke the bassinet. Correctly shot and easy to use. Would definitely buy again when the time came to replace this one.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • New competitors have appeared

Pretty good mount, except . . .

My last replacement was the original Garmin mount. It lasted about a year, then fell off and never stuck to my windshield again. Very disappointing! It has tremendous suction, but the ball in the seat is looser than I would like. Since I still mount it very close to the dashboard. I propped it up with a flat piece of rubber between it and the GPS unit. Now it's going nowhere! Everyone should have this much suction power!

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
