No Slip Mount, Great for Rental Cars! November 1, 2007
My recently purchased Nuvi270 worked great on my recent trip to the UK. I was in 3 different rental cars and this non slip bean bag type mount worked brilliantly!
It packs flat when you remove the mounting bracket and fit nicely in my laptop bag along with the necesary cable and gps unit.
 Pretty neat product November 1, 2007
I haven't faced any problem with this product. Stays where we place it without moving at all. Could have been a little smaller in size but no complaints :)
The Perfect Solution November 1, 2007
I purchased this mount for my Nuvi350,as a replacement, after I had to scrape the provided window mount off my windshield and rendered it useless.. This is truly the answer to the perfect mount for the Nuvi. It stays right where you position it, on your dashboard, and yet easy enough to hide if you want to remove it...I feel this should be the mount included when you purchase this product.
Great for my Nuvi 350 November 1, 2007
Tried to install the sticky mount that came with Nuvi 350, but failed to get it to work properly.
Also, I don't like leaving a GPS navigation mount on the dashboard all the time.
It's like inviting thieves to break into a car to steal my precious Nuvi.
Suction cup is out of question for me in California.
I was a bit worried that this may slide off a dashboard with a sudden turn or a stop, but it never moved.
It can be picked up and placed anywhere on the dashboard, which is very convenient.
This mount is easy to take a part for storing.
I would recommend my friends to get this if they own a compatible GPS navigation device.
 Ugly, ugly, ugly October 31, 2007

I do not often disagree with the people who own, have evaluated items and submit reviews here. However, I must be the only one who finds this hurky, ugly and marginally useful bean bag thing for mounting a Garmin Nuvi to be awful.
Yes, it works as described and may solve a mounting problem for some people in some automobiles, but I just hated it as a practical matter when I tried to use it in my Toyota 4-Runner.
This huge glob of buck shot or whatever is packed in the base took up way too much room on my dashboard and was almost impossible to pack away in the car when not in use. It won't fit in a glove compartment or a console bin. I finally had to stuff mine under the seat in order to get it out of sight while I was away from my vehicle.
I just couldn't bring myself to using this thing and eventually just used the "sticky" mounting bracket that came with my Nuvi instead. I was trying to avoid that.
I thought of sending the Garmin Portable Friction Mount for Nuvi back, but decided it wasn't worth the trouble. Besides, someday I might need a huge unsightly paper weight or door stop with a funny plastic stalk on it.
