5 Stars Just Right…A+
I have a Navigon 7200 and this gets it off the dash to accomidate the straight mini USB plug that come directly straight down on the bottom of the unit. It stays in place and keeps it down below the sightline of the windshield. I can take it down and get it out of sight when leaving my car and not have any clues it is in the car. Remember, the suction cup circles on the windshield are a giveaway to potential thieves. I got mine from antoline at a very good price and so far have no complaints. I recommend it!
4 Stars Great for my Nuvi
Works well with my Garmin Nuvi 755T. Holds it in place, we can put it on the dash or the front passenger seat, if available. My wife can move it towards her to look at it, and I can move it back. It also saves us the bother of attaching and detaching the suction cup from the windshield everytime. Instead I suction-cupped the mount that came with my Garmin to the beanbag and leave it attached, easily removing the GPS when I’m done with it so we can take it with us, and hiding the beanbag with the attached mount beneath the car seat.
2 Stars Not all it’s cracked up to be
Gilsson UBM Portable Car Non-Skid Friction Beanbag Dashboard Mount
True it doesn’t seem to slip around but it is cumbersome and in a smaller car can end up covering your air vents. I also don’t get how the GPS is supposed to sit on it? Are you supposed to mount the GPS to the suction cup mount and then suction it to the plate? I think this may be the new “pet rock”, something you really don’t need. A better description of how to use and showing a picture with a GPS unit on it would be helpful in deciding whether or not to purchase. Right now it’s hanging out in my back seat!
5 Stars better than the round bags
the square shape is exactly the size of a standard car stereo width. so it looks nice directly above it. plus, if you have a shelf in your console, it will fit there for storage.
we have a TomTom 720 and it’s the only bag that will work with the stock mount. just barely though, it sits right on the fabric. as said, very stable and easy to store due to the shape.
yes, the bottom is a freaky polymer, touch it.
5 Stars GPS beanbag dashboard mount
The Gilsson beanbag GPS mount performs exactly as I anticpated. The GPS suction cup securely attaches to the beanbag mount. The mount is of adequate weight, width, and along with the friction surface, keeps the GPS exactly where it is placed. In one of my cars, the dash even slopes away from the windshield. The mount stays in place.
