As a safe driving concern, I was looking for a device to hold a garmin nuvi 1350 on the visor by the driver’s side so I can quickly glance overhead at the map display while on the move and still keeping my eyes on the traffic ahead. This unit met all my requirements. By mounting a GPS on the visor and not on the dashboard, I eliminate having to turn my head, even slightly, away from the road ahead. The visor mount allows me to position the 4.3 inch display closer to my face, so short glances are enough to take in the essential map info. However, I use a dashboard mount if I need to recharge the unit.
Charging the unit while mounted on the visor can be distracting with a cord hanging down in front of you. For downtown city driving, a visor mount takes the stress out of navigating quick lane changes and turns. A dashboard mount is fine for freeway driving.

This item does what it is advertised to do and holds well to the sun visor.
The only negative I can think of relates to where it mounts at. That issue is what to do with the power cord when the battery runs low. I do not like even a small wire obstructing my vision so I only use this when the battery on my unit is full and going to run without charging for awhile. It is not this uniits fault that my batteries do not last as long as they should therefore I give the unit five stars.

This device was easy to install. The only small matter is you must remove and store it if you want to fold up the visor

The mount works as advertised, but unless you have another location on your car dashboard toclip it on and still gives you clear line of sight, it is awkward, at least to me, clipping the GPS onto my sun visor. Although it works as intended by the manufacturer, I don’t forsee getting much use for it.
