Not bad for street driving, but I use this most off road. The stand shakes to much on bumpy terrain to read. needs to be reinforced.
Great for in car use i use it with the beanbag mount for my Garmin 60CSX
Work just perfect I used in a car, in excursions off-road,is very comfortable, Is a good investment, buy this is my advice.
VERY ADJUSTABLE. SO FAR, WITH THE 3-FINGER FRICTION MOUNT, I HAVE YET TO HAVE IT MOVE. I had been using a cell-phone holder to place my GPS on my dash. My wife said this is the BEST thing I have bought in a long time, as I don't get mad at the GPS anymore. I found myself holding on to it most of the time. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THIS COMBINATION.
After reading the many reviews warning about using Just the swivel mount, I decided on the combo offered by Amazon. (I drive a 4-wheel drive Yukon, both on and off-road while Geocaching). I purchased BOTH the Swiveling Automotive Mount(010-10456-00) & the 3-Finger Friction Mount(010-10503-01) by Garmin for my GPSMAP 60CSx. I did NOT even try the swivel mount alone, as it must have a flat, smooth surface to adhear(temporary OR permanent). She said she would gladly have paid $155.00, not the $55.80 it cost just to have the PEACE OF MIND. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND buying the COMBINATION.
THE PROBLEM: every mildly sharp curve, or big bump in the road sent it sliding across(or off) the dash.
It comes with a peel and stick adhesive piece that exactly matches the dimensions of the base, but I'll never use it; too restrictive, that's why I went with the friction mount. More than I need for my dashboard use. Once I was able to confirm that this fit my Map60CSX AND that I needed it for the friction mount I ordered it.It's simple but versatile. The display on the GPS can be tilted forward/backward, rotated clockwise/ccw and spun on the base.
