Does the job better than any other mount out there
on March 17, 2024

All my other mounts blocked the air vent and had very limited articulation. I could barely see my phone behind the steering wheel for this reason. This one does the job, it places a phone right in my view and doesn’t block the vents. My only complaint is that every couple of weeks I have to tighten it because it starts to loosen up and it’s very hard to correct while driving. I wish there was a better locking mechanism. I also had to put a piece of paper behind the arm so that it wouldn’t scratch my dashboard.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Overpriced but good

I just bought this today. Its an average phone mount. Its good but a bit over priced. I have not used it very long at all, and its fallen off of the mount. I have a magsafe phone case, so it should be grabbing on just fine. It was a speed bump to be fair though.
I did scratch my plastic trim installing this. Obviously my fault. To avoid it I had to install the mount upside down. 2023 Kia Forte by the way.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good, but wish it was more like the cycle mount

I have had the motorcycle mount for a while so I decided to try the vent mount for use in my truck. It was a little tricky to get on the vertical vent but seems to hold the phone solid. I was disappointed that it didn't have the same phone retention system that the motorcycle mount has.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We'll see

Vent mount works great, but I have to take my iPhone out of its MagSafe case to get it to stay attached to mount. With the case, it slowly slides off. Not ideal, but otherwise I like it.

Is use for month now. F150. Much more sturdy than I thought it would mount.

This is the better solution for limited space
on February 21, 2024

I used to have the older stick on mount, but when I changed vehicles I didn’t have a good spot to adhere the mount. Every spot was either too far away, or not enough flat space. I hate window mounts too. Then this came into the picture. My console and dashboard are phone clutter free. I do have to adjust the phone every time I mount it, but this is not a problem with the mount, but rather the fact that I’m placing a weighted object onto a movable surface (vent blades). I knew what I was doing, so minor adjustments when I place the phone on the mount doesn’t bother me in the least bit.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice but over tightening brakes an internal part
on February 18, 2024

Very nice, works well with az ESR halolock case (which has a foldable stand) , car holder is sturdy, but when you realy tighten it to the fan blade, the problem is not to damage the blade itself, that pretty much impossible, the actual issue is that you will damage the internal part of the holder! Which happened in my case, if you full extend thr blade you can actually pull it out completely, and when you put it back it has a side aligning metal leg, that broke off now, though i can still tighten the holder to the vent, and holds well, seems like that metal piece is only for alignment to install the hook to the holder. It just seems funny that in the YouTube video they mention don't overtighten cause you will damage the car vent blade, giving an impression that the holder is so strong that it can damage a thick plastic piece, while actually thr product will be damaged.
