Digital camera Review: Does the job at a great price
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this for a Garmin 255W. The Garmin suction mount attaches securely, the cord can be tucked under the corner, and it stays put on the dash of our zippy VW Jetta. I recommend this mount.Digital camera Review: Does what it should

Summary: 4 Stars
This is a nice beanbag mount - it's sturdy and stays in place in my car. However, I have a TomTom GPS and the GPS didn't suction properly onto the mount, and fell off a few times while I was driving.Digital camera Review: Exactly what it should be
Summary: 5 Stars
This works perfect to replace pesky mounts that don't stay on the windshield. Using with the TomTom car kit for Iphone and
it works great!
Digital camera Review: Excellent Beanbag Mount for GPS
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using the Gilsson friction beanbag dashboard mount for one week, and am very pleased with the result.
The non-skid material on the bottom side of the beanbag provides excellent friction on dashboard surface. The beanbag, as well as my Garmin 660, does not slide even in hard acceleration and quick cornering situations. Although the instruction recommends placing the beanbag with one of the corners pointing front (thus making it diamond shape) for maximum stability, I found a regular square placement orientation (with one edge facing front) still provides sufficient stability.
Measured at 7" x 7", it is about 55% in size compared with Garmin model, which is 11" x 8". In addition, its square shape makes it look clean and nice on the dashboard. Originally, I was considering another model by Gilsson, the UBM-2 which measures 8" x 8, for the wide-screen Garmin 660 GPS. After one week's of testing, I concluded that it is not necessary.
Another thing I should mention is that the color in the pictures on Amazon looks burgundy, but the units I received are in black, which matches perfectly with the black interior of my car. A nice bonus to me.
For the price and performance, I think this is the best beanbag mount currently available on the market.
