This product seems identical with the Garmin mount and is half the price.

 Suction cup plus... December 3, 2007

For all of you out there sticking this suction cup directly on to your windshields... Did you notice the black disc with the red adhesive? THAT'S what's supposed to go onto the windshield. Then the suction cup goes on to THAT. Result: NO problems, even in the hottest weather.
Old suction cups had bad material, New ones better November 3, 2007

If your gps came with a suction cup that failed you should call the tech support number to have it replaced.
I read several reviews of this product and so I knew there was an issue with them not holding up very well. I stuck mine to the windshield just under the review mirror, so I don't obstruct my view. It held fantastic from march to October. One sad day as I was driving along, Nuvi happily guiding me, it spontaneously fell to the floorboard. I'd hoped since I had never removed it, I wouldn't have the same problem, but no such luck.
I called the garmin support line, and they offered to send me a replacement stating they had a problem with the material in the early versions. Seemed easy enough. Two weeks later I was still waiting for for suction cup so I could put Nuvi back under the mirror, instead of in the cupholder. It takes a lot more effort to look down to the cupholder then to look at it mounted under the review mirror. It's always falling over, pressing it's own buttons, and generally mumbling to itself instead of announcing street names and directions clearly.
The new suction cup material is supposed to last a lot longer. I guess we'll see. The concept is great. A lever actuated suction cup, with a hinged arm, and a ball joint on the end that holds the gps. The ball allows you to turn it easily back and forth to make it easy for either the driver or passenger to see it. It has a release button to unlock Nuvi, so you can put it in your glovebox, pocket, or purse, lest you tempt unscrupulous passers by to try out your handy navigation friend. There is a power connector on the back so that you just snap the Nuvi in and its hooked up to power. There is no power cord in this kit, although there is one that includes a spare cord.
 Great until you have to remove it from a windshield October 30, 2007

I'll echo the other, but add some details. It worked and removed great from the pad mounted to my dash. It would even go on and off a windshield if not left on long. But when mounted to a windshield for a longer time, it ripped apart coming off and now does not work. Like another review, my radar detector has "cheap" little suction cups with no problems.
I work in industry where nitrile rubber, viton, and other materials are chosen on their ability to withstand heat and UV rays. Either Garmin selected this material in total ignorance (not good) or with full knowledge it would fail this way (worse yet).
 Good while it lasts... October 10, 2007

This mount works well, as long you don't have to move it around from car to car.
