True, there's not a lot to this mount, making it a bit hard to review. But it works 100% as advertised.

One thing I can definitely say, though -- the suction cup mount is great! Most manufacturers of suction cup mounts for stuff (GPS receivers, radar detectors, etc) seem to think that one or two suction cups should do the job. And maybe that will work fine for most people, but I live in Florida. For those of you not currently aware, Florida is located approximately six miles from THE SUN. So invariably, I'll leave work and get into my car (which, since lunch, has seen an increase in cabin temperature to approximately 39817 degrees), only to find that once again the suction cups that hold my radar detector to the windshield have given out from the intense heat and the unit has come crashing down. I've destroyed two radar detectors with this constant dropping.

So anyway, the point is that with four suction cups to distribute the weight, they each only have a fourth of the work to do. When the temperature rises, they're much less likely to give out. As a matter of fact, they haven't given out at all yet.

This is exactly what I need to make good use of my remote GPS antenna. It's easy to attach to glass or smooth metal and plastic in any convenient area. If you're using the remote antenna than this product is a must have. VERY HANDY GADGET!

This is a simple GPS antenna mount which works quite well. I have a Garmin mount, which uses a screw on one of the suction cups to adjust the angle, which works quite well once you get it adjusted. With this mount, you bend the metal to get it adjusted and it has four suction cups to hold it in position. The platform is a bit large, especially considering the GPS antenna is is suggested for, but it is not that big of a deal and it can be used with multiple different sizes of antennas.

I sent the antenna holder back in December 2011 for credit, per Amazon's instuctions(DXV44CQCRRMA),I sent Navshere a e-mail of why I was sending back the product,and I have not heard, nor received credit from Navshere! Called Amazon and they said I should wait longer to here from Navshere. All I want is my money back.
The thousands of $$$$$$ I have spent with Amazon gave me too many expectations for a time like this when I had to send something back.

This works great with my antenna. Attaches real easy to the windshield very easy. Very stable does not viberate at all.

Excellent way to increase the speed at which my old TomTom finds the signals. Leaving the Frankfurt airport sometimes meant a 3 to 5 minute wait to get a signal. Now I get a signal almost as soon as i get out of the garage.

My Garmin Nuvi350 use to take a long time to aquire satellite signal, so I was almost going to get rid of it, then I thought about getting an antenna, it worked!

Simple product works exactly as advertised. Stick it to your windshield and slap on the magnetic antenna and you're good to go. Also comes with two screws if you really want to make sure the antenna doesn't move.

Simple device, yet very effective. WYSIWYG - two screws, and a metal plate with four suction cups.
