I have had this product for about six months now. I purchased it originally to mount my iPhone 3G to my wheelchair. This product's versatility allowed me a wide array of places I could mount it to secure my phone in a usable position. But I was somewhat limited by the weak strength of the clip. As a result, I had to also secure the flexible shaft with a strap to keep my phone from moving around too much. For me this was a minor detail, considering mounting to a metal tube is a difficult thing to do with a spring-loaded clip alone. The clip design is such that it is very good at clipping to flat surfaces due to the use of hinges and rubber pads, but not so much so for curved surfaces.

My main complaint is their use of plastic for the clip. I thought I was paying the extra money to upgrade from a cheap plastic mount to something more durable, which unfortunately was not the case. It was not long before part of the spring-loaded hinge was broken irreparably, whereas metal construction would have been more appropriate for such a vulnerable area (hinge between the two halves of the clip and containing the spring).

Regardless, this product will serve most people well for occasional and even moderate use, but may not hold up too well to prolonged everyday use.

**Edit - shortly after I posted this review I received a replacement in the mail, which has so far been much more durable. At this point it seems more likely I will be replacing my phone before this mount wears out. It has weathered the last couple years well.

Here's to hoping that the iPhone 5, whenever it shows up, will also fit this mount.

Also, I'd like to send a well-deserved thank you to the merchant for sending a replacement on their own initiative. I am definitely a satisfied customer.

We searched the web trying to find a product such as this to clip on to our NordicTrack. The device has been performing remarkably solid for past two weeks and we enjoyed it. it held on to the surface tight and did not shake while we ran on the treadmill. We like it so much we ordered a second one!

I have been using this product since I found it at Macworld this year. I love it! I throw it in my purse and take it with me everywhere. I take it the gym and use it when I am running on the treadmill. I have also taken it on a plain trip a few months back and people were asking where they could get one.
