Great product and strong hold

Love the hold and convenience of the product. Just wish it didn't loosen so easily and regularly

Nice adjustable charger mount

I have been using it for a few weeks and I'm pretty happy with it. Well thought out, as with most PD products. It does restrict the vent direction, but I like the adjustment of the arm and it attaches securely without much concern of damaging the vent louvers.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Parfaitement adapté à mon véhicule

J'ai acheté cette fixation pour avoir mon téléphone facilement visible, et installé solidement dans mon véhicule.
Le systeme se fixe facilement et de manière fiable à l'aérateur central de ma BMW Série 3.
Mon Iphone Pro Max tient bien en place.
Bref, du tout bon.
La qualité de construction est au top (ce qui change des chinoiseries qu'on trouve généralement pour ce type d'article).

Limited reach and difficult to tighten
on October 16, 2024
Posted by: TMM
from Union City,CA
There is no doubt that the material and workmanship is good. There is a couple of design issues that need to be addressed.
First, the extending hook piece, is cleverly designed to reach back to the vent fin. However, for my Tesla X, it just barely reach and get the hook to come over the fin.
Second, the tightening rings are all smooth metal so it is hard to really tighten them down using skin/metal friction. The rings should be roughen or ribbed so that the finger can apply more pressure. Especially for the arm that reach sideway, there is a lot of downward pressure due to the weight of the phone.
Lastly, on this car, there is very little space for the hook to hang onto. Once mounted, the phone still block the airflow. I know this is a design incompatibility between the car's vent and this type of vent mount. I just hope that the smart mechanical engineers can develop a solution for this car.
And finally, it is not a problem yet, but the phone really just hang on with magnetic force and it feels weak (when I take it off). It has not fallen off once, but I really am not sure if it will hold with a sudden brake (or in a collision or accident).

Engineering at its best

I wasn't sure whether to get a charging or non charging vent mount. In the end the non charging seemed less of a problem if I changed cars later

Solid

This thing is fantastic on my 2015 WRX, the fit is a tad tight as the vent hook has to be fully extended to get it to fit but it's on there good. Most solid vent clip mount I've ever had and my car is not a smooth ride, on bumpy Michigan roads, my phone stays put. 10/10 highly recommend

BUY THIS VENT MOUNT
on December 6, 2024

I watched the setup video and they say “we are about to ruin all other vent mounts for you” and they’re SO RIGHT! I love this vent mounts so much. As someone who spends a lot of time in my car this was such an amazing purchase! I also have vertical vents and it still works perfectly ❤️ peak design is just the best at everything they do
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great..but

Note that this is attached not just by silicone clips but also by a plastic hook, so unfortunately no so good attachment to my car’s slanted vents.
Also, not exactly a complaint, the MagSafe attraction is so strong that it seems to be slowly loosening my car’s air con vent every time I pry away the phone.
I would recommend this to a friend!
