The suction cup sticks very well, without a doubt. The only con that I have, if you look at the ad photo, it appears that the unit that is sitting on the mount would clear the suction cup, say for a radar detector. Take a close look at the ad photo. Notice that the suction cup is mounted vertically. Windshields are not typically vertical. When the mount is stuck to the windshield, because of the angle, the radar detector will not clear the suction cup, its 'view' is obstructed.

I ended up mounting the radar detector and mount upside down, which is an option - however, with the escort detectors slanted face, when it is upside down, it now tilts away from the driver. Buttons and vol controls are also reversed. Just makes things a little awkward.

The support neck of the base needs redesigned to accomodate the slant of a windshield.

This item is suggested for use with a radar detector...no way.
The suction cup obstructs the front sensor of the Radar detector it was suggested for.. love the detector hat this mount!!
DO NOT buy this to use with a Radar detector, I have 5 vehicles we use in out business all of which I have radar detectors for; cobra, escort and bell. It would not work with any.

Ordered this at the same time as ordering a Cobra XRS 9340. I'm VERY pleased with the design & function of this device. As i see it it's a must have since the original suction cups that come with most laser/radar warners are crap.

I purchased this product with the intention of mounting it in the windshield of my Nissan Altima to hold my Escort Passport 8500 X50 Radar Detector. I received the product in a timely fashion. Just so you know, there is nothing on the mount part to hold on to a radar detector. You're going to need some Velcro or something to hold it in place. Placing it on top of the mount, I was concerned about the suction cup blocking the sensors on the front of the detector (the suction cup is HUGE). I went to the store and purchased some Velcro industrial strength (also available on Amazon). I stuck some on the bottom of the mounting piece and on top of the detector and let it set for at least 12 hours. Now I can just stick the detector to the bottom of the mount and have no worries since the Velcro is strong as well. A very stable setup! I would also add that I have it mounted upside-down vs. the way it is in the pictures. Anyway, as far as the product goes...

PROS- Very sturdy, HUGE suction cup that stays plastered to the windshield, even in the mid-summer Louisiana heat and humidity, doesn't look bad, doesn't have to be taken down to be able to use a sunshade

CONS- Even after you use the suction release switch and pull on the raised piece of the suction cup, you still need to pry it off of the windshield unless you want to run the risk of breaking it, no included way of mounting a radar detector and can only be mounted one way without obstructing the detector

Have this in my hatch (Acura RSX), lets me keep my antennae inside the car instead of damaging my paint. Suction works surprisingly well, even on a rear window with the raised defroster lines. I didn't expect that.

Very nice product, good for GPS mounting,radar detector,or satellite radio reciever. does what it says well,so I give it a 5.

This works just as I had expected. It attaches firmly to the windshield and seems to have no risk of falling off (even after 8 hours in a closed car on a sunny 90+ day), yet it's very easy to remove when I need to. I use it to hold my garage door opener, and it's compact enough that I can mount it out of the way above the rear-view mirror. I'm ordering a second one for the other car.

Great! Can be used to mount almost anything! I bought it to mount a radar detector but the mount that came with the radar was acceptable. So i use it to hold a switch box that controls my add on's. When people look thur the window they tend to think my car is a undercover police car! It can be used for almost any application!

this unit comes with 2 stiker metall plates for units with magnet base
it is full plastic device, so ones you install it, better not to move to much..

Didn't work in my Pontiac. The angle made the the mount block the detectors forward view.
