3.0 out of 5 stars a bit shaky, February 20, 2009

Overall I'm pleased with the product, but would probably go with something different if I had it to do over again.

Shipping: Pedestal shipped promptly and arrived safely.
Use: I used it for my XM radio in my Honda Civic, stuck right above the center consol.

Pros: It was simple and quick to install. The suction cup is strong and connects securely to the windshield. It also came with a small disc, with adhesive on one side, which adheres to the window. You can then suction to the other side of the disc.

Cons: Because of the length of the arm the XM radio thrashes around you drive.

The Arkon pedestal works very well because it is sturdy, well built and it makes using my XM radio a lot more easier than with the vent clips all of the XM units come with. At first I thought that 14 inches might be a little long, but I have grown used to the fact that it makes the display very easy to see and the buttons on the unit a lot easier to use. And I don't have to worry about the unit falling off while I am driving down a bumpy road or a crappy Southern California freeway. A best buy for sure!
