Arrived quickly and as advertised

Our Kia's dashboard isn't quite flat where I wanted it to be and the surface isn't entirely smooth so the adhesion didn't work so I used superglue and that's it in order. I'm sure if the surface was level and really smooth everything would be fine. The GPS suction cup fits perfectly.

  • Quality construction

Failed in 10 days: GPS, finder and accessories

I bought this to fit a cradle in my Honda Civic which has a steeply sloped windscreen and curved dashboard. Week the plate started to peel off the sticky circle. I pressed it several times and each time it stuck for several days before peeling off again. Maybe the magnifying sun effect from the windshield was part of the problem, but now I have a sticky circle of glue on my dash with a useless mounting plate loosely stuck to it. So no functionality and a bit of clutter on my dashboard.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Perfect size (in my opinion)

This is a great disc size for most cell phone suction cups you can buy from Revain. Although for GPS you might want to use 90mm. I would say 70mm is the size of a suction cup and therefore you don't have much room to play with. You can move the suction cup off center and still get a good seal. The only thing I can think of is that the adhesive on it is not automotive grade 3m adhesive (grey material) and looks like the internal assembly adhesive (white material). So it will be interesting toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Great price

The adhesive fell off less than 30 days after the return period

I highly recommend this product if you only need it for 1 month and then it falls off normally and peels off the adhesive! #sarcasmThis adhesive disc made it, but unfortunately too short. It dropped less than 30 days past the return period and when I notified the seller, GPS City, they gave me a 30 day return policy and politely told me I was SOL. I know this is a manufacturing defect because the side of the adhesive that peeled off was the side that was attached to the disc! Do yourself aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Everything is fine

Good Plastic Washer, Bad Glue

I installed these on the dashboard of my Subaru Outback after thoroughly cleaning and drying the area. It was used to mount the phone. The disc fell off the dashboard after about a week and the adhesive is not sticky at all. I scraped off the adhesive and replaced it with 3M 4910 VHB tape. It's been running for about 5 weeks now. For reference, four years ago I bought VHB tape to reattach the model number decal to the trunk of my Saab (which is in good condition). This tape is for rough outdoor

Pros
  • Easy Installation
Cons
  • Some Minor Stuff

Same as Samsung Galaxy Universal Suction Cup Car Holder

This is almost the exact disc size of the Samsung Galaxy Universal Suction Cup Car Holder. I bought this because I will be changing vehicles frequently and wanted to use the car mount interchangeably. The drive has the same edge and 3M tape as Samsung's OEM drive and works great in another car. If I ever needed a different disc I would definitely buy it from the same manufacturer! MB Sprinter, at the top center of the windscreen. I attached the disk and held it there without much pressure forโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent Overall Performance
Cons
  • Faulty

Good for the purpose Best car mount

This disc is slightly larger than the GPS suction cup on my Garmin. This made it a bit difficult to place on my dashboard as the dashboard has a curve, there really is no 'flat' spot. I got the dashboard because my friend complained when the GPS fell off the windshield. I thought the hard drive would solve this problem. But the GPS also fell off the pane. Spring. I think that's probably less common with a disc than with a direct windshield mount. And I think it's not because of the discs, butโ€ฆ

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Hard to say

Great disc! I would choose the smallest for DVR suction cups.

I use this on the back of my car where the suction from one of my cheaper dash cams can't grab the glass due to the heating elements. With a self-adhesive backing, I can create a special place for the DVR. Be sure to wipe fingerprints off the mounting plate, and then use distilled water to slightly dampen the plate. Once you've done that, you can place the suction on it. The water seals the suction cup to prevent air ingress, essentially welding the suction cup to the disc. Since myโ€ฆ

Perfect for what I need, thanks!

Perfect! I bought a cell phone holder from Samsung, it was quite expensive, but there was only one disc in the kit. Okay, what do you do when the car is for sale? Buy another phone holder for $70? nope Just grab three of these spare discs and keep them in your desk drawer. I have one on the dashboard and one on an indoor tape deck (I'm a musician and use my smartphone as an MP3 player). So yes, great find here. But take the size you want. This size is perfect for Samsung S4 dashboard holderโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn
