The only issue I had was the suction cup starting to deteriorate. Yes, I have been rinsing it with dish soap and warm water like once a year and it was fine. But it got to a point that the rubber part was peeling and it just did not work. I like this so much that I was thinking about purchasing the exact same one, but I tried the customer support just to try. And they sent me a replacement--the updated one with improved suction cup. I am good to go for years to come. Great customer support--prompt reply and actions.
Original Review (circa October-ish 2018): I wasn't sure how well this would work out. I have a Samsung Note 8, and it is in a defender series Otterbox case. It is BIG. It is HEAVY. But after getting pulled over for catching my phone (using it for GPS) as it slid off my steering column, I needed a different way to keep my phone up and visible but also stationary. Most of the other options would not accommodate the sheer size of my phone in its case. I was afraid of the ones that go on the vents, because well, my phone isn't exactly lightweight, I don't want to break the vents. I found this and thought ... for the price, what do I have to loose.
It arrived quick. It installed in no time flat. It hasn't moved. It has been hot as Hades underwear around here, and it hasn't moved. My phone hasn't slipped at all either, despite having to drive (almost daily) through horrible road construction that sends everything in the car bouncing and moving around. My only issue is ... why didn't I order one earlier?? Seriously, why??
Reached out to Bestrix for Warranty repair, and Voila in less than 24 hours on a weekend they had a completely new unit ready to send to me. So I have to give them credit for such a fast turn around, especially on 3 day holiday weekend. Wow, I can't complain, so it's back to 4 stars...okay 5 stars for customer service and we'll revisit the product.
*UPDATE* Well it lasted for a while, then it broke. See pictures above. I really had hoped that this had some longevity because, I really loved the thing...but oh well.
Okay I had to admit I was skeptical, but I figured I'd give this a try so I wouldn't have to keep using the windshield. I know some states are ticketing folks for having GPS/ Phones attached to the windshield. What makes this product super duper fantastic is that I can hang it below the dash line, well actually the phone. This helps to prolong the life of your device because it's out of direct sunlight, and on most cars you can angle your AC vent to blow cool air, which is excellent for road warriors who put down some miles and worry about their device overheating. Also out of site, so the cops won't hassle you. Also that low profile leaves the dash and windshield clear of any obstacles thereby not hampering your field of view. Next great thing, is that suction cup! I have a textured dash, mostly flat, I think the way it works, is it has one of those latex like suction pads, kind of like a gel pad that grips the surface and down in the fine texture valleys of the dashboard and provides super suction. Make sure you clean the dashboard with a towel and water and let dry, don't apply any conditioner or dash clean to the area. Also make sure you don't put you fingers in the clean area (hand oils can xfer), and then press down and flip the latch. Talk about hold.. and yes the hold of the magnet, I have a large phone with an otterbox defender case and I used the rectangular magnet, it's got a good pull, but comes off easy when you pull wit the hand. I attached and drove over some normal roads, and bumpy roads and it held with no problem, but with the twist of the wrist it came off. Finally if you're worried about it bouncing around as you drive not to worry, that thing is rock solid. I bought one for me and my wife, with her installation she has a mild curve to the dashboard, and it installed with no problem and gave me the same super suction. The suction gel pad forms around most surfaces to give you a good grip. Her set up in different she prefers vertical with the magnet towards the bottom third of the phone, I use it horizontally with the magnet in the middle. The key thing to remember surface area on both the mount and the magnet. You won't as much surface area covered by the magnet/ mount as you can to help keep everything stable and secure. If you are not using a case you will have an even better magnet attraction. All in all a great product. I have a few other units but this one is perfect because I can mount on the dash, adjust for viewing angle and keeping it below the deck line helps to keep my field of view clear from any obstacles. a great buy!!! On another note I was suppose to get one day shipping Amazon, you guy's hosed it up and added three extra days to my one day shipping, totally uncool.

Her set up in different she prefers vertical with the magnet towards the bottom third of the phone, I use it horizontally with the magnet in the middle. The key thing to remember surface area on both the mount and the magnet. You won't as much surface area covered by the magnet/ mount as you can to help keep everything stable and secure. If you are not using a case you will have an even better magnet attraction. All in all a great product. I have a few other units but this one is perfect because I can mount on the dash, adjust for viewing angle and keeping it below the deck line helps to keep my field of view clear from any obstacles. a great buy!!! On another note I was suppose to get one day shipping Amazon, you guy's hosed it up and added three extra days to my one day shipping, totally uncool.
