Friction Mount Holder for Garmin - Exclusive Portable NonSkid Beanbag Dashboard Friction Mount for Garmin GPS Nuvi Drivesmart Drive Dezl Zumo Driveassist DriveLuxe StreetPilot RV Navigator

My wife absolutely loves this product! This is not the first one I’ve ordered! Good alternative to suction mount holders, easy to relocate, and reasonably priced! Highly recommend!

I use this to keep my navigation device where I can see it on the dash. I don't have to look down to find the moving map. If I want to deploy a sunshade I can easily move the bean bag to the seat until I need it again. No suction, clamping or adhesive required. Useful item.

Bought it to use with my personal GPS when I have to rent a car from an airport. Stays put on the dash with no issues.

The suction windshield mount that came with Garmin GPS would come off the windshield with temperature changes. With an older GPS I had I purchased a claim shell style holder that sat on the dash. It was heavy and was rock solid during hard acceleration and braking. But I did not like how the claim shell bent the power cable and connector. I really like the way this mounts to the Garmin GPS but it's too light Weight to stay in place. During hard acceleration or braking it comes flying off the dashboard. So I used Gorilla removable mounting putty to attach it to the dashboard. Because it's a low tack adhesive it's easily removable but solidlylocks this mount to the dashboard. Now no matter how hard I accelerate or brake there is no movement. Despite how nice the GPS mounts I could only give this a 3 or 4 star rating because it would not stay in place. But combined with the Gorilla putty I would give this 6 stars if that was an option.

Device is as advertised. Would like to have the small ball post a bit higher.

We purchased this for the dash of our truck to put our GPS or Garmin and found that this model. The Eye saddle function mount holder for Garmin is probably the best that we have come across. It stays put even if you make sharp turns if you break too hard or takeoff too fast, it stays right where you put it. The design is pretty clever. It’s almost like a three sided beanbag. It fits perfectly on the dash the stickings holds like it’s been drilled in. It was very inexpensive so it was great for the value of the money we spent. It’s very easy to use and there is suction cups if you want to use those, but we prefer the sticky part. I highly recommend these friction mount holders for your Garmin so you don’t drop it or damage it because this mount stays put.

Wish I had this last year on our trip up the Alcan. Eliminates the drops and smudges from the suction cup due to rough rosds and temperature changes. I would buy again.

slides on dash too much. bottom sticky rubber not very sticky. went with other brand.

Fabulous idea. Heavy and stable on the dashboard so it stays in place. Garmin clips securely in place. Highly recommended.

This bean bag mount is an underrated idea for mounting a GPS or other electronics to your dash without having to rely on suction cups (useless in fluctuating temperatures) or adhesive (can be messy). You'd think it'd bounce around or slide or be inclined to fly off the dash or into the windshield, but in my experience it rarely even budges. There's enough weight and friction that it's remarkably good at staying in place. This is fully compatible with the original Garmin GPS mount for Nuvi devices, but I'll let you in on a little secret - it's a standard 17mm ball mount. You can easily find 17mm adapters for your phone or other devices, it doesn't just have to be for a GPS. The price is also very reasonable considering the build quality and the prices some of the original or other "replacement" beanbag mounts are going for elsewhere. Overall if you like the concept, this is a great version, and sure you still need to buy a holder for your device, but like I said it's basically universal if you can find a 17mm ball mount adapter for your device. Works great with Garmin Nuvi's too, though.

Used to hold old Garman 2595L GPS. Held Gps safety in place whilst on a week long road trip. Unit sits on very smooth dashmat, without needing double sided tape, weighted designed works well. Ball joint connection allows gps screen to be adjusted with very little slippage. Screen held in position even on rough road surfaces and base seemed fastened to dashmat. Small enough to hide. For security reasons when travelling I disconnected gps from power cable and moved the dash mount (gps attached) out of sight when parked. Highly recommended if you need to mount gps or phone holder with ball socket on your dash without mess.

Excellent GPS saddle. It holds perfectly and non slip. Very well made.

Last one last 5 year sitting on a sun exposed car dash board so hopefully this one will last as long
