3.0 out of 5 stars Holds well, should be more solid though, March 15, 2006

This review is from: GARMIN 010-10457-00 Windshield Mount with Suction Cup (for GPSMAP 60 Series) (Electronics)

This mount holds your 60xx gps as promised (I'm using it with the newer gpsmap 60csx with no issues). There is a "jacket" that snaps onto your device and the jacket then attaches to the mount via a quick release (incidentally, this jacket is the same as used in the 60xx.. bike mount). The entire construction won't fall off the windshield as another reviewer has stated - I've tried this in Vermont (<30F) and Miami (>80F) and actually had a hard time removing the mount when returning the rental car.

I did find two nuisances though:
- if you mount the gps a little higher so that the bottom does not touch the dashboard, you'll find that it's not that steady; the unit bounces slightly while you drive, making it harder to read directions
- you can't mount the unit anything but vertically. You may think that that's ok, but the gpsmap60csx that I own is *much* more readable when the sun shines into its display, such as when holding it almost level. An extra 20 deg tilt would make all the difference between an always- readable display and one that needs backlighting even in daylight.

4.0 out of 5 stars works fine, November 19, 2005

The suction cup works fine...... just don't leave it in the car parked for extended periods of time, with the gps attached. The heat the inside of the car generates loosens the suction,only sometimes. Other than that it works just great.

This product gets the job done. When placed on a clean windshield it will stay on even during off-roading. One thing that is missing is the ability to adjust the bracket sideways.
