Keep your nüvi in place with this portable friction mount. It'll keep everything in plain sight when you need it and out of the way when you don't. Place the mount on any stable surface, and adjust the position of your GPS to your liking. The friction mount weighs enough to keep your device put on the dash, even when sudden maneuvers are necessary. It's ideal for states in which the use of windshield suction mounts is illegal. In addition to its convenience, you can quickly place your GPS out of sight, and without leaving any residue on the windshield, both handy for any potential prying eyes. Compatible Garmin Models

It's more than I expected. |
I read enough reviews about the Garmin Portable Friction Mount to know the general consesus of owners highly approved of it. So I gladly ordered from Barclayauctions.com to replace my windshield mount. It is everything it promised to be, and exceeded my expectations. I fully expected some slippage across the dashboard around tight corners. I even went so far as to hang onto my Garmin 855 on aggressive turns. But then I got courageous enough to just let the Friction Mount do it's job (hold my GPS in place without slipping/tipping)... and it did! So to my surprise I didn't have a single problem or worry anymore. And the dashboard mount is far better than the windshield mount.
I withheld one star simply because I think the unit is slightly overpriced. It is still worth every penny if it helps prevent GPS theft, but for what is essentially a non-slip sandbag with a plastic mount on top... I would like to have paid a little less. No complaints about overall quality whatsoever. |

Does not fit all listed devices, had to discard |
I bought this mount for my old Garmin Street Pilot, and it was wonderful, far superior to the original vacuum thingy that hung on the windshield. After only a couple of trips, the touch screen on my GPS went crazy and Garmin said there was nothing to do about it --- so I purchased a Nuvi 265WT. It is listed as a device that this works with, but there was no way whatever I could fit it onto the ball mount. The ball is too large. Since this is listed for that device, I don't know what to do to replace it. The way the Nuvi hangs on my windshield is very distracting, as the cord is much closer to me than it was with the Street Pilot. I have a curved dash, so I can't just use anything that sits on a normal dash. Too bad it doesn't fit all the advertised devices, as it is great when it fits.
If you're thinking of buying one, I'd suggest taking your GPS to the store and making sure it fits rather than ordering online. |

Definitely not small... |

This mount is huge. It will definitely hold any GPS unit (we are using the Garmin Nuvi 1350 4.3") without tipping or sliding. |

This friction mount works great. No more messing with that stupid windshield suction cup. This thing stays put and holds your garmin in place. Should have bought it sooner. |

great |
we got this to use in our minivan and it has been great. it doesn't move once on the dash and makes it much more convenient to remove and set up the gps when getting in and out of the vehicle.
