DASHBOARD FRICTION MOUNT
Pros: no suction cups needed...but not perfect!!
Cons: some time on the dash, the suction seemed to fail
EXCELLENT MOUNT
Really easy to use, just stick the original suction cup
mount on it and place on the dash. It provides greater
security as there is no tell-tale ring on the windshield
where the mount would normally be and the unit can be
placed somewhere totally out of sight. It places the GPS
closer to you thus making it easier to see and make
changes. This is a good base and an excellent price
compared to others that are out there.This is the best
product I have buy for my GPS. I drive from Québec to
Florida and the super grip does't move at all. I bought 2
for my daughter and my brother in law for chrismas.

EXCELLENT MOUNT
Pros: holds gps firmly in place. is easy to remove.
Cons: a bit bulky. need to keep area on dash clean
Really easy to use, just stick the original suction cup
mount on it and place on the dash. Just make sure to wipe
dust off dashboard prior to placing it on the dash. It
provides greater security as there is no tell-tale ring on
the windshield where the mount would normally be and the
unit can be placed somewhere totally out of sight.
It places the GPS closer to you thus making it easier to see
and make changes.
I place mine in a plastic bag when I remove it as the
underside of the base easilly attracts dust.
This is a good base and an excellent price compared to
others that are out there.

GREAT MOUNT
This mount does everything the promotions say it does and
more. It is virtually unmoveable on the dash. The suction
cup used to release from the window on my van at
inopportune moments. It has never let go of this
mount.These make great roadwarrior gifts.

FRICTION MOUNT
Pros: no suction cups needed...but not perfect!!
Initially seemed to do the job great.
Onlye caution is that because the GPS unit overhangs the
base, the mount tends to move along the dash on my Honda
Accord. It actually walks sufficiently that it fell off
the dash....GPS unit and mount.
Now I watch it and if seems to be walking I reposition the
assembly. No big deal just something to watch for.

STAYS ON DASH
Pros: does not move around, stays where placed
It works well for me, I have a Van with a long front window.
Now I don't have to reach to the window and attach the
suction cup of the GPS. All I do is attach the suction cup
to my dashboard mount base and it stays mounted to base.
The GPS unit is easy to see, because it is closer to you.
The mount is excellent and well recommended.

DIDN'T LIVE UP TO EXPECTATIONS
Pros: worked initially
Cons: failed over time due to loss of suction
Concept was good, but after some time on the dash, the
suction seemed to fail and the GPS unit flew off the base.
Might be due to shiny surface.

THE BEST !!
this product is amazing works great!!! No more suction cup
marks on the window tuck everything out of sight when you
park. You can easily adjust the screen & it truly does hug
the dashboard. Very happy w/ this product. We bought a
piece of vinyl & cut it to fit the base when not in use.

FRICTION MOUNT BASE
We are extremely pleased with the mount. It stays very
securely on my dashboard and is a perfect size. I drive a
Mazda Miata, and was concerned that it would not fit well.
I am thrilled with not having the tell tale ring on my
window after the GPS is removed.

It sits on our dash & doesn't move at all even if you have
sudden stops. It is very easy to attach our GPS.
We will definately be buying again from GPS City.

GREAT DASH MOUNT
Pros: stays put on curves. great value
Cons: none
This mount was used with a Garmin 1390T GPS with no
sliding. We drove 2000 miles in the mountains of Vermont
and New Hampshire with out any problems with this mount. Be
sure you clean the car dash and the silicon base of the
mount with alcohol and remove the paper backing. At $15
this is an exceptional value. The only slight problem I had
was that airport security thought it was necessary to pull
it out of my carry on because it looked like a land mine!

EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED!
Pros: versatile between vehicles securely holds gps
Cons: not a one!!
We were going to rent a car during our vacation trip and
wanted to bring our Magellan Maestro 4040 with us. But we
didn't know if the vent-mount we have in our Toyota
Highlander would transition successfully to the rental. And
in California, windshield mounts are not legal. We could
have rented a vehicle that included a GPS system, but it
would have cost an additional $60 and I couldn't justify
paying that when we already had one we liked and were
familiar with.
Enter the GPS City Super Grip Dashboard Friction Mount Base!
It worked exactly as pictured in the video our Magellan
mount fit into the base perfectly and when we placed it on
the dash of the rental Kia minivan, the height did not
obscure my vision in the slightest. Best $14.95 I've spent
in a long time!
We definitely recommend this!

WORKS GREAT, BIGGER THAN I THOUGHT
Pros: works as designed. great drip
Cons: a bit bigger than i thought or needed
the Grip is excellent even on slightly sloped / curved dash
surface. If your device is small (like my garmin nuvi 265)
you might want to go with a smaller mount. if your device is
bigger / heavier then this would be a good option.

IMPROVES THE PORTABILITY FACTOR
If I was recommending to my friends a GPS unit purchase, I
would influence the purchase of this mount. It is nicely
weighted and it makes the unit so easy to transfer from
vehicle to vehicle. The nice thing about this mount "it is
not weather sensitive.

DASHBOARD FRICTION MOUNT STAYS PUT!
Pros: works as advertised
Cons: none
Bought the GPS City Super Grip Dashboard Friction Mount Base because I didn't
want to stick anything on my window (sight lines are already tight in a Mini). I
had concerns about whether the dash mount would work since the Mini rides
rough and I tend to drive it fast. The mount works perfectly. It stays put and
places the GPS in a perfect sight line.

Excellent mount.Used with Garmin 855T. Grips well even when
cornering briskly. Works better than the Garmin "bean bag"
mount. This is my second Super Grip mount. The first one is
used with a Garmin 755T by a family member. Both mounts and
the 855T purchased from GPS City.

BEST MOUNT
Pros: see above
Cons: none
Fantastic product - my car's dash is very curved and I could
not get the suction cup on my GPS to stick on it anywhere.
Having it in the window was a distraction so this little gem
keeps it on the dash right where I want it. And the service
was totally amazing. Ordered one day, shipped the next,
received the next! Awesome!

GREAT AID
I needed a mount base that I could carry to the UK in my
hand luggage, could easily be moved from vehicle to vehicle
and could readily put out of sight in a vehicle to avoid
theft with the CPS unit attached. This product filled the
bill very well and was entirely satisfactory. At the same
time it was about half the price of some competitors while
being smaller and lighter.

GPS SUPER GRIP DASHBOARD
Pros: grips super well
Cons: the gps unit won't stay stuck to it.
The dashboard works fine. The problem is the suction cup on
the the GPS itself. It keeps falling off. I don't know
what to do unless I buy a whole new unit. Have you had
similar complaints from other customers. I thought maybe
krazy glue would help but reluctant to use it as it's
permanent and I like the portable part of the GPS. thanks.

SUPER GRIP DASHBOARD MOUNT
Pros: rock solid
Cons: never going to win any beauty contests
This product does exactly what it claims. Its rock solid on my 2006 Sonata and
places the Garmin much closer to the drive to make minor inputs like detours etc
I found that even with a squeaky clean window the suction cup would give way
under the hot summer sun and often at the most inopportune time

THE REAL ANSWER FOR GPS MOUNTS.
Pros: best gps mounting system i have had.
Cons: none
Used in three cars including a rental in my first three
weeks. A true godsend of a mount. Sits stationary almost
anywhere on your dash. Initial trials, on the smooth
bottom of a serving tray, showed it remained stable to at
least 60 degrees of tilt. Vibration from rough unpaved
roads did cause minor "creeping" across the dash but not
enough to be a problem. It was however a problem to the
airport x-ray machine....throw it in a separate tray as it
makes your bag "unreadable"

GPS MOUNT
Pros: low profile and maximum suction cup adhesion
Cons: neglibable
superior mount to any suction cup mount on windshield.
weight is sufficient to minimize slide on any fairly level
dash location. also us in RV on sloping dash: wonderful.
rubberized bottom needs cleaning with wet rag periodically
to maximize resistance and adhesion. esy to store and "no
marks on windshield"! worth every peny!

DASHBOARD FRICTION MOUNT
Pros: easy to move to another vehicle, cost
Cons: a bit large to take on the plane
It took some adjustments to the Garmin base before it would
stick properly to the mount, but once I got it in the right
position, it was fine. Very little movement of the base
while driving. Good value compared to similar products sold
elsewhere. It's somewhat heavy, but it wouldn't work if it
was too light.

Pros: stays put

The mount is not very difficult to assemble, but some

keep the base clean, and how to mount the gps unit in the

This mount is superb. It's heavy and tacky-bottomed enough
to stay where you put it, even on strangely-curved dash
surfaces. And it makes it easy to move the GPS from one
vehicle to another without having to mess with re-
suctioning the suction cup - just move the whole pad.

NON SKID BASE MOUNT
Pros: leaves no tell tale sign that you have a gps
Cons: really can't think of any
This is an absolute must for those concerned with
break in and subsequent theft of your GPS unit.
Since my first Garmin I have had the non skid
sand bag and they work fantastic so I was
skeptical when I bought my nuvi and was offered
this generic version but for the price I couldn't
resist. Let me say it is PERFECT especially for
the nuvi because you don't have to purchase the
special arm to mount it. It leaves no tell tale
sign that you have a gps in your vehicle. Easily
transport from vehicle to vehicle. Sits on any
contour dash and will not move. I highly
recommend!!!

Pros: très pratique et peu dispendieux
Cons: les frais d'expédition au québec.
Vous est-il arrivé de voir votre GPS se détacher
du pare-brise et tomber sur le plancher de votre
véhicule? Avec ce « Friction Mont Base », ce
danger est éliminé. Vous protégez votre GPS
contre les chutes et les bris qui peuvent en
résulter. Le support se déplace facilement sur un
siège pour cacher votre GPS quand vous sortez de
l'auto, nul besoin de le retirer de sa base. À

SUPER GRIP FRICTION BASE
Pros: as above, great accessory
Cons: a bit big ... keep it clean.
Set the base onto the van dash for a 5 day,
5000km road trip. Never moved. Supports
standard gps suction cup well. Provides
multiple, unobstructed positioning for the Nuvi
4.3 gps. Keep it and the dash clean, which we had
no trouble with. Easy to hide.
Easy to hide ...

GREAT GADGET
Pros: holds on to the dash like a magnet
Not only have used this happily and successfully
for the basemount of my GPS when needed but it
keeps a parking transponder for work perfectly
positioned for "reading" on entry and exit. No
more messy Velcro tape on my dash or windshield!!

BEST BASE MOUNT
Pros: simple to instal - do not move, and do no damage t
Cons: a little large, but neccessary to take the weight
This is simply the easiest base mount possible.
It is almost impossible to tip over, even when 4
wheeling - I have 2 in my PT Cruiser, one for the
radar and one for the GPS, and they work
perfectly!
GPS City Comment: Hey Paul. I've been there, to the middle of nowhere Alberta. I think we played some old timers hockey down there!

PERFECT
Pros: perfect weight, easy to use, priced right
After much searching and price comparisons, I
found gpscity.com. This mount is perfect for my
GPS and for me. My dash is textured so others
just did not work well or were so totally
unattractive I did not want to look at them. Not
this one. It is perfect. Thank you.

STICKS WITH A SMALL FOOTPRINT
Pros: small footprint and "stickyness".
Cons: none
This base sticks very well to any relatively
level spot on the dashboard. It takes up very
little space and is much smaller than what I've
seen offered in stores. I bought a second one
for a larger handheld type GPS unit as well and
it holds tight.

MOUNT WORKS BETTER THAN EXPECTED!
My mount hasn't moved yet! I really didn't think
it would just sit there on my dash without
moving...even when whipping around some tight
turns --- but it does! It's working out great
for me! An excellent purchase!

VERY GOOD MOUNT
Pros: easy to move off the dash when parked in bad area
I am not comfortable with the GPS mounted on my
windshield. It is too far away to reach. This
mount gets it closer to my reach. The mount is
very stable and hasn't slid around no matter how
hard I have cornered. Very highly recommended.

Pros: it works great !
I am very pleased with this mount. It stays on

to be stuck any where, it can be used anywhere in
the car with a flat or sloped surface..back seat
or front.

SUPER GRIP FRICTION MOUNT BASE
I am very pleased with this mount, it stays in
place even on my contoured dash, and so much
better than sticking it on the windshield. I
sometimes have a problem with the suction cup
coming loose sending my TomTom falling to the
floor. I do wet the suction cup first but
perhaps I am not pushing hard enough on the
suction cup.

SUPER GRIP FRICTION MOUNT BASE
Pros: inexpensive, easy to use.
This really works well as it doesn't require the
use of the sucker on the windshield or anywhere
else that might tip off a thief that you have one
in the vehicle. It uses the Garmin sucker to
attach to the base. The base is very stable and I
just hide the whole lot in the glovebox or
armrest. You could put it in the trunk as well.
It was much less expensive than the Garmin one as
well. I bought one for a friend at the same time
and she thinks its great. How to win friends!

MOUNT BASE WORKS AS DESCRIBED
Pros: permits easy reach for devise attached
Cons: none
I currently live in Washington State but I travel
quite frequently to California. California does
not permit devises to be attached to the
windshield. I used the base on the dash in
several rental cars and it works better than
described. It works so well that while traveling
with my sister, she said she had to have one. I
gave her mine and ordered me another one. The
base does not slide on the dash - great product.

EXCELLENT GPS MOUNT
Pros: absolute ease-of-use
Cons: none
Firstly, when I ordered this item, it was
delivered the following day! I wasn't sure if it
would fit my car dash properly, as it has
several rounded mouldings for the
instrumentation, but this unit is so well-made
that it sits up nicely on the contoured dash,
with no movement at all thanks to the non-slip
material on the base, even under heavy braking
and cornering. The beauty of it is that I can
move it between cars so easily, and it brings my
GPS unit closer to hand instead of having to
stretch to the windshield mount. It also makes
it easier to read and hear. I have no hesitation
in recommending the unit to other car-GPS users.

SUPER GRIP FRICTION MOUNT BASE
Pros: inexpensive, simple
Cons: none
I bought two of these for 2 different vehicles
and am totally satisfied. After having the
suction mount of my Garmin 550 come unstuck from
the windshied several times (in route) I wanted
it on the dash and closer so it was easier to
read. This product worked great and never moved
during a 1500 mile trip last week. The GPS never
became disconnected from the pedestal or the
pedestal from the friction mount base.

SANDBAG FALL SHORT
Pros: one mount for 2 vehicles
Cons: slides not grips on the dashboard
I thought this was a great idea as I have 2
vehicles and moving my GPS back and forth should
now be very simple. Unfortunately this sandbag
mount slides all over the dashboard and is
basically not useable. The Super Grip Friction in
the product description just is not working for
me. So I'm back to the windshield suction cup.
GPS City Comment: When you are using the non-skid friction mount, please make sure you have the white paper material on the bottom removed. This is there to protect the silicon bottom. Without this removed, the mount will slide. You will also have to wipe the silicon clean and your dash clean to avoid any dust. When this is done, the mount will hold like glue. Let us know if this works, thanks!

Pros: doesn't move. cut-out in front fits my gps well.
Cons: none
This holds my Garmin perfectly. It does not
slide or move at all once I set it on my dash.
I have owned it for a month now and it has been
absolutely perfect. The only thing left is to
see if the silicone base holds up over time.
I'm very happy that I bought this mount. Also
gpscity.com service was excellent. They shipped
it to me very quickly.

Was skeptical at first about this mount staying put. Also wasn't sure about its form factor for my dash. Non issue on both accounts as I've loved using it. SAFER then mounting my GPS on the windshield even if it's legal for now to do so. Never mind the mounts portability if I'm in another car!

Pros: price was right!
I bought this for my wife to use with her new

GPS to find where they are lost. While my wife
initially didn't see the need for the base, after
using it she really appreciates how easy it is to
use, especially the ability to store out of view
when parked.

for it. The GPS never moved once...

Your GPS will NOT move around with this. But it is
quite heavy to move, as my elderly parents found out.
also, the construction does not allow it to mold to
the curved dash of their car, but it still does not

have recommended it to other people.

A PLUS FOR TRAVEL
This Friction Mount Base for Suction Cup Mounts is a
very convenient way to mount your GPS device when
using a rental car. The plus side is that the GPS unit
wont leave a tell tale sign on your windshield, by the
suction ring, that you have a GPS unit, and when
parking won't alert the would be thief that your GPS
unit may be "hidden" either in the trunk , glove box
or under the seat. Sturdy built and a nice accessory to
have.

THUMBS UP!
Purchased this one because a similar one had sold out.
This one rode on the dash of the GMC truck from
Canada to Texas and didn't budge or slide a bit.(some
rough roads too!)The bottom side is a gel like rubber
and has lots of grip to keep it from sliding.
Good product. It was also a bit less expensive than
the original one I was looking for.

DEFINITELY WORTH THE MONEY
Purchased this mount because in California you are not
allowed to use a windshield mount and I did not want to
put an adhesive disk on my dash. The portable mounts I
saw at Best Buy and at other online stores were too
large. This is a small mount and works perfectly. I
highly recommend it.
