 Finally, Form Follows FunctionNov 29, 2009
By Eve G.
In my quest for the perfect GPS mount, I've tried the vent clip, the beanbag mount, the gooseneck suction mount, and out of desperation, started thinking about making my own cupholder mount.
The Handstands Sticky Pad GPS mount is the perfect solution. It's small, flat, lightweight, portable, and not an eyesore. The top has a patterned surface and reminds me of a silicone potholder. There's a smooth plastic disk on which you attach the GPS' suction cup. The underside is sticky silicone that adheres to the dash. It leaves no residue when removed.
Handstands recommends use on vinyl dashboards only. If the pad loses stickiness, a soap and water rinse will restore it. To prevent dust from sticking to it during storage, I leave it on the plastic liner it was packaged with.
I use it with my 3.5" nuvi 255, and it performs well, with zero tipping, tilting or movement, of the pad or the GPS.
There may be some conditions under which it might not do as well. Because the friction comes solely from the silicone underside, I could see it possibly losing grip under the following conditions: dirty pad, heavy or large GPS unit with mount, a highly sloped dashboard, or frigid weather.
Measures about 7.25"W x 8"L x 1/8"H (1/4"H at the disc). 3.25" disc diameter. Weighs only 5.5 oz. You can choose whatever color you want -- so long as it's black! I bought mine for $4.99+ shipping, elsewhere.
December 2009 update:
I successfully used this on a cold dashboard that had a layer of Armorall on it. Not even dust would stick to that. But the Sticky Mount stayed stuck in a 200 mile trip, and didn't budge an inch. I like it!

 Doesn't work with hard plastic dashboardsFeb 02, 2010
By Opal Mom
Beware -- this product does not work with hard plastic dashboards! But, you only find this out once you open the plastic packaging (thus making the product non-returnable) and find a notice INSIDE the packaging (and hidden from the outside) that the product is to be used with SOFT VINYL DASHBOARDS ONLY. Having opened the packaging (and therefore not being able to return the product, so I had nothing to lose), I thought I'd try it on my hard plastic dashboard anyway, and of course, it failed to hold.

This thing sticksDec 19, 2009
By Dennis Gaynair
"the handyman"
I recently bought this pad for use in rental cars when I travel. I used it on my last trip to Florida and it worked fine. I put it on a relatively flat spot on the dash of my rental SUV and it stuck right away even though the dash had been coated with armor all. It has a solid area in the center to attach the vacuum base for the gps and once it was set up I left it on the dash for four days without any problems.

 May or may not work for youOct 26, 2010
By Amateur Woodworker
I have an Acura TL. In the center of the dash is a metal speaker grille that is about 4" x 6". It seems to stick to this pretty well, so I am going to keep this. On the other hand, my wife's Highlander has a more typical (hard) vinyl dash. It is completely worthless in this situation. In case you are confused about reviews referring to 'hard' vinyl, as i was, I think all dashboards are made of hard vinyl. Soft vinyl would be more typical of a seat covering. So I gave this 2 stars, but it really reflects 0 stars for most dashes and 5 stars if you have something other than vinyl on the dash that it will stick to.
