Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Handstands Original Sticky Pad
Customer Review: Almost.....Almost......
Summary: 1 Stars
Almost good. Almost works.
There are really three parts to this very thin slab of....material. The top, the bottom and its ability to stick cleanly to the car dash.
First: the Top
Works as advertised. stuff doesn't move around unless you really rock the boat and then it will go flying.
Next: The Bottom
The bottom of the slab is very able to hold to surfaces well.
Finally: The use
Well....here is where the failure occurs. The edges of the slab curled up. I couldn't get them to stick. The pad itslef stayed in place but looked terrible with the edges curled.
1/2" to 3/4" border - all the way around coulndn't be made to stick - no matter how I tried.
I cleaned the dash, let it dry and peeled the backing off as instructed and then placed in in a particular location but the edges curled. Oh well.....
It might work for you but it did not for me.
Customer Review: Not meant for other surfaces
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this pad to protect my phone while it rests on my desk at the office. I bought the HTC EVO, and since it has a protruding camera lens, I was concerned about it getting scratched from day in day out movement on my desk. I chose this one because it had good reviews, and was large in size ( the EVO is huge :) ).
I cleaned my desk surface, and applied the pad. After only a couple of hours, the corners started peeling upward. It should also be noted, that the surface is actually sticky, which I don't really care for.
I know this is intended for in car use, but seeing how it has difficulty adhering to a completely flat surface, I would have little confidence in this sticking to my car's dashboard.
I have just ordered the iGrip XL instead, hopefully that is much better.
Customer Review: Works GREAT with my Kindle!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this item. It has a lot going for it, the price, the fact that it works great, the size, and the fact that it works great on my Kindle 2. In fact, if it were in color, I would buy a whole lot more. I am just not that into black, but black works in a lot of places.
I placed this sticky pad on the back of my Kindle and even my husband was amazed how well it worked. I can now use my Kindle with my elliptical machine just by placing it on the readout. My Kindle doesn't slip or fall and I can read while I'm exercising.
I think the inventors should make 'skins' for lots of products instead of just pads too. If the price is as good as this, they would have a winner! I have used all the ones I have bought around the house and in my car.
Customer Review: Does what it's supposed to.
Summary: 5 Stars
I put this sticky pad on top of a cup holder cover i have on my Honda Accord 2010. I tend to put ipods or my cellphone there and whenever the car moves it slides out and falls to the car's floor. Using this sticky pad, it prevents that for me.
It is easy to remove if you decide to get rid of it altogether. You don't have to stick it permanently on any part of your car.
Things that don't bother me about it but should be noted.
It doesn't stay on the cover that well.
Its like it could fall off if there was enough dust between it and the cover.
Just like any other sticky thingie, this thing can easily collect dust. It looks like you can just wash it off though. I haven't tried.
Customer Review: piece of junk
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this because a friend had a similar product on their dashboard that was very practical. I saw one at Wal-mart but I did not buy----because it was WM. I went on Amazon and saw this, ordered it, and experienced complete disappointment when I received it. I wish I could have given less than one star---this is crap. It cost $12 (including shipping)......I would have returned it but I wasn't going to spend another nickel for return shipping.
The pad has never laid flat, the edges curl upward. I should have known better. I love shopping at Amazon (for the most part) but sometimes you're better off if you go to the store and actually touch the product you are considering.
