Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of GARMIN 010-10457-00 Windshield Mount with Suction Cup (for GPSMAP 60 Series)
Customer Review: Works well in car, and also fits with Large Rail Mount for bicycle
Summary: 5 Stars
I just got back from a driving trip, and the mount is great. It sticks firmly to the window, and having it right by the windshield produces excellent reception. I didn't notice much vibration, and it certainly didn't bother me. The real motivation for getting this, though, was to use the plate with the Large Rail Mount on my bicycle. I can report that this works great as well, so I don't have to buy the bicycle mount, just the Large Rail Mount adapter.Customer Review: Mounting Bracket 010-10457-00 Construction
Summary: 4 Stars
The item was received in good condition. It does work as reviewed by others here. It adheres very well to the windshield. I agree with the reviewer who wished it had sideways rotation. That could be a benefit when using only reflected light with the GPSMAP 60CSx.
I would like to see the technical specs include the construction material for these products as RAM MOUNT does for theirs. That would help in the decision making process.
Customer Review: It doesn't stick to my window
Summary: 1 Stars
I haven't been able to get this bracket to stick to the window of my Jeep no matter what I try, and that's just in the driveway, without the GPS in it. I can't imagine it would hold on the road, especially on rough terrain. The suction cup is flat and wimpy. I'd skip it and try the one that has the lock down mechanisim for your dashboard. If I only had a dashboard, I would have picked that one myself. I may try putting my own suction cup on it.Customer Review: Fragile, latch breaks easily
Summary: 2 Stars
I have had this item for about a year. It is made mostly of plastic. The plastic latch used to apply suction broke after about 8 months. I glued it, but the effort required of the plastic latch is simply too great and glue will not easily hold.
Additionally, there are no replacement parts available, so the unit itself must be replaced.
I cannot recommend this unit .
I have ordered a metal unit from RAM to replace it.
Customer Review: Good GPSr Mount
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great mount. It is sturdy and stable when it is locked down.
This mount does however suffer from the same issues that other suction cup mounts suffer from. When the temperature changes drastically it will fall off.
One way to help guard against this is to closely follow the mounting instructions. You really should clean the surface with water and let it dry before securing the mount.
