GripGo Vehicle Phone Mount

[iKev]

I just picked up the GripGo phone mount at Walgreens for $11 (in the As-Seen-On-TV aisle). This is the best phone mount I've ever used in a vehicle. No adjusting little arms that hold your phone, no carefully guiding the phone into a precision cut slot. Just place your phone on the GripGo pad, and go!

Here are a few shots:

It swivels:

And holds an iPad:

how exactly does it attach? double sided tape?

 

[iKev]

The arm itself is attached with a heavy duty, locking suction cup. If you don't have a non-porous surface to mount it on, it also comes with a disc that has adhesive on the underside so you can adhere that to your vehicle, then mount the suction cup to that.

i bought it from Walmart but it didn't work so back to the store it went.

 

[iKev]

Wow. That's surprising. I stinkin' love it!

 

[sigtke213]

Thanks. Does it mount via the cig. Lighter

 

[iKev]

No. It's just a mount. Not a charger.

Does the phone stay on when driving on a bumpy road or over speed bumps?

 

[iKev]

I've had it for two weeks now, and the phone hasn't even begun to fall off under normal driving conditions (speed bumps, potholes, etc.).

The only time the phone (and mount, itself) has hit the floor was when I forgot the mount was there and hit the arm of it with my hand when I was turning the car off.

After 2 months my GripGo looks like that. Up until then it worked pretty great, but it's now junk. I have attempted cleaning it but it does not seem to be of any use. The surface leaves this gross residue on my smart phone case that gums it up pretty bad. I do not recommend this to anyone.

^ For the record, I have not had that experience. One year later it works as good as it did the day I bought it.
