Great Product BUT!!

I love the product but the base didn’t fit anywhere in my vehicle I have a Tacoma and I had to modify the base to find a place to put it but the magnet part of it will definitely hold your phone while off-roading.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This product is amazing. I was looking everywhere for a MagSafe car charger that could be mounted below the vents. This was an incredibly difficult thing to find. I’m so glad I found this company! This product is sturdy, well built, and beautiful. The mounting is strong, and it works just as expected. I love it!

Hands down the simplest and most reliable car mount I have used yet. I started with a camera bag and each product proves to be as good as the last purchase if not better!

Works but not flawless

I got the charging version. It's just as solid as any other accessory where it grips firmly. It charges well, pivots smoothly and then holds where you left it. So there it's better than other mounts I've had, that end up drooping either quickly or over time on the drive with bumps and stuff. Unfortunately the arm isn't really long enough so you're pretty limited in where you can mount it in a car and still be able to choose both horizontal and vertical mounting. If you're certain you'll only use one orientation then you have more options. This led us to mount it in a less than ideal location, way up on the dashboard. It's plenty visible and still within reach up there, but it's fully exposed to the sun all the time, as well as defrosting/heating if that's on. So between that and the black color of the mount and the case (and the dashboard) it gets very hot and the phone overheats and shuts down. This has actually happened every time we've used it on a drive so far. If the arm were longer we could've put it more in the cabin and regulated the temperature.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Be sure to follow the directions!

Love my car mount! After trying to “man through it” and not read the directions I failed the first adhesive. Reading is a critical skill, kids.

Phone Stays Mounted Even On Turns!

Once I purchased the iPhone 13 Pro case with finger loop that opened up a new world of other mobile accessories from Peak Design. :) I needed a car mount and didn't want something attached to my windshield or dashboard and vent car mounts didn't seem to hold well. This Peak Design car mount keeps my iPhone secure no matter where I drive. It is a nice feeling to know when I go over bumps or make turns I don't have to hold the phone just in case like with other products prior.
I will admit finding a place to install the car mount in my 2004 Lexus RX330 was somewhat challenging. Since I didn't want it on the vinyl dashboard I had to get creative and found a small area above the radio where this mount fit. Granted it is covering up part of the word Passenger but not a big deal. I am sure newer cars probably have more options where to place this car mount but my determination to find that perfect place in my car worked out.
I had debated purchasing this product due to mixed reviews but I am so glad I took a chance. It has worked out perfectly so far. Such a good feeling knowing my iPhone is secure and won't fly off. To remove I lift the bottom of the phone up and phone comes off easily. The magnet is strong and secure and what I needed. Plus in California you aren't allowed to hold your cell phone in the car so this also saves me from possibly getting a ticket!
A win/win in my book!

More options

I bought two of these for both of my vehicles. I love the product overall, but it was difficult for me to find a good spot for the mount in both cars. I wish the mount had more or different mounting options, because the sticky thing really didn’t cut it. It also kind of forces you to buy one for any vehicle you want want in, instead of just swapping it over.
