Five Star Reviews: | 61% Great buy! December 1, 2016 No tickets yet! This radar detector picks up, and alerts, nearly a mile away on radar and much much further away for lasers! I travel the country and do advertising for my job and this thing works great! Nice toy to play with March 21, 2016 Nice toy to play with. I like to know where the hidden cameras are. I actually use it mostly out of the country. In Africa, presently... Five Stars June 20, 2015 I like the voice alert. You know exactly what alert you are receiving without looking or guessing. The radar/laser detector was a Christmas gift for my son ... January 12, 2015 The radar/laser detector was a Christmas gift for my son who travels back and forth to L.A. for work -- and it talks to him which helps to keep him awake! He loves it! | 62% NOT FOR EVERYONE March 20, 2017 First off, I'm leaving 5 stars because the quality of the pad. Like others have mentioned, it grips very well and does the job. I say "Not for everyone" because if your car is like mine this will not be good for a radar detector. I have an LED hud in the center dash with a hood that goes over it. It slants slightly down going towards the front of the car. When mounting the radar detector, it points slightly down toward the windshield wiper and doesn't clear the rear either. So, if your dash is similar to mine, get a mirror mount. Your radar detector needs to point straight forward and not be impeded by wipers or anything else and needs to be able to clear the rear, which is why I suggested the mirror mount. Again, this does not detract from the quality of the mount itself and I will use this for something else such as to hold a phone or whatever else. This is just a warning for others like me. Amazing Rubber Gripper - Really Works! August 15, 2016 This pad is naturally sticky, like a post-it. Works great to have your radar detector mounted on the dashboard, out of view, close and easy to adjust when necessary. And, you can remove it from view when parked, or leaving the car in the hot sun to avoid "frying" your detector (I lost one that way). An amazing pad, much more reliable than suction cups on the window, plus the detector is closer to me so I can read the screen. It's easy to wipe down if needed without impacting the level ... May 27, 2016 Sticks to the dash of my FJ cruiser very well. I use it for a radar detector. The longer it sits, the more secure it gets. I have not had any issues with it or the radar detector sliding around. Interestingly, it does not seem to attract dust or small particles as some other pads do. It's easy to wipe down if needed without impacting the level of grip. I'll probably buy another one. It is FANTASTIC! May 13, 2016 Been thinking of getting this for my radar detector for months. After the LAST time of the current suction cups falling off while driving I finally purchased this item. It is FANTASTIC! Not only does my detector stay in place but it also looks much sleeker without having anything mounted to my windshield. Should have purchased sooner. No sticky residue on my BMW dash. Great product. Amazing little pad works even under extreme driving !!! March 17, 2015 this little matt is amazing . in south florida i go thru suction cups every 2 yrs and have to pull the detector off for the sun screen so i figured i would try this instead . i didn't think it would work to well , my challenger has a bumpy dash with the designs in the plastic that i drive hard at times, taking turns hard etc having a little fun in it :) and also my escort x50 is very heavy for a radar detector . it has not moved once sitting on this pad , and i thought for sure this thing would go flying thru the side window and also i don't have to move it putting my sunscreen up , i love it . great product !! Really Works! January 16, 2014 Like alot of other people have already posted. This thing sticks like magic. I found a perfect spot on the dash of my Corvette, placed my Escort 9500ix top of the pad. Pushed it down real good, and "bingo!" it stayed. I have not tried multiple removals and replacements on the dash, but so far, it's been GREAT! | 47% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Four Star Reviews: | 12% Four Stars November 18, 2016 Seems to work better and have better sensitivity than the higher priced Cobra detectors. Works Great November 27, 2015 I have it mounted on dashboard. Works effectively. I have picked up numerous cops. There have been some cops who I have not picked up with it but I assume they did not have their radar on. I have received all of the alerts possible at one point in time or another. One might want to mute the K-Band as it does go off frequently. The mount to the Windshield does not seem to be the most stable. The windshield is also the ideal spot to mount it. Laser Detector seems to be working fine. Whenever it is bright out November 9, 2015 Laser Detector seems to be working fine. Whenever it is bright out, it is hard to see the lights on the display which is not ideal. | 11% My husband purchased this for his road trips back and ... April 28, 2017 My husband purchased this for his road trips back and forth to his home state of Iowa. He says that it has worked very well, sometimes too well. He said that he turned it off at times because it is so sensitive and picked up the radar in the road signs when there was no police radar around. It works pretty well! March 7, 2017 When I first open this item, I was disappointed by the thickness. Luckily, even though it is very thin, the pad does what it is suppose to. I haven't had any problems with my detector sliding around on my dash. Btw the mounting pad sticks to the bottom of your radar detector better than it will to the dash. I just decide to leave my radar detector always plug up because of that reason. What a great little item September 11, 2016 What a great little item. I picked it up as a cheap add-on for my Beltronics Pro200 radar detector. I didn't have a whole lot of hope for performance on such a low value item, but I have been blown away by how well it works. It's a great fit for the detector and it has never moved at all in my first two months of use. I do worry about it melting or overheating and becoming a sticky mess on my dash, so I keep a newspaper in the car to cover it on the days it is parked in direct sunlight. So far, so good and I remain pleasantly surprised and suction cup free on my windshield. Sticks like it's supposed to June 29, 2016 The mount definitely does what it was designed to do. Be aware that your dashboard will have to be flat, any incline or bump will obviously have an impact on its usefulness.Being somewhat sticky, it will attract dust/lint if it comes into contact with such material. I am also hesitant to leave this in my car on hot days, as I am afraid it will melt. Has a strong odor during initial use. Does exactly what I expected at a VERY reasonable price. November 19, 2015 It does exactly what I expected it to do, hold a radar detector on the dashboard without is sliding around and falling off. I'm also tired of messing up my windows and view with the OEM suction cup.sticky cup mounts.I bought two, one for each of my cars because I put my old one in my wife's car. Now I can use my old detector in her car, or, if we're on a long trip, I can easily put my Max 2 on the dashboard.The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it's actually too sticky.When you lift up the detector to put it away the whole pad comes with it.I would have given it 4 & 1/2 stars but that's not an option.Still and all, it does the job well and I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants the same results. Sticky Dash Pad September 23, 2015 I use this to hold my Escort 8500 radar detector in place on the dash. It's handy for those times I might need to pluck the detector off my dash in a hurry or to get it out of sight when I park in an area where the detector might present a reason for a break-in. I have found this type of gummy material holds well but will deteriorate if exposed to the heat and sunlight encountered in south Texas. It left a gooey mess on my wife's dash that I'm still working to completely remove. | 13% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Three Star Reviews: | 9% tiny suction cups that go on the windshield are useless. I have had it for 3 weeks now ... June 19, 2015 tiny suction cups that go on the windshield are useless.I have had it for 3 weeks now and many Patrol cars drive by without it going off. Are they just not running radar?I don't know. Not real happy with it but its ok July 27, 2014 called customer service the day it came in they have never returned the call. I cannot find a place for a battery so you always need to have it pluged in. Not real happy with it but its ok. Very unhappy with customer service and would not buy from them again. | 7% Not as expected March 14, 2017 Product is a little sticky but did not do well in holding either my radar detector or my Samsung Note cell phone. Not worth the price if it was not shipped for free. It gets dirty pretty easily and I cannot get the lint off ... May 29, 2016 This product worked very well and kept my phone in place, but sometimes when I took sharp turns my phone would fall off. It gets dirty pretty easily and I cannot get the lint off of this thing. I don't think I would recommend this though. Don't let it get dirty January 6, 2016 It works fine if you are careful, but I found it to be so sticky to the detector that it would come off when I took the detector off ... then it would get lint and become completely un-sticky.If you are careful and/or don't pull the detector off very often it works great.If you are not that careful an pull the detector off all the time (me) it isn't quite as useful It is pretty thin. It does a good job of holding ... September 11, 2015 It is pretty thin. It does a good job of holding my radar detector, but it also leaves behind a "film" of sorts on the dash and the radar detector. I'm in Texas so it gets really hot inside the vehicle and I leave it on the dash but without the radar detector. While I'm using it it does hold the radar detector securely even though it can't fully hold the detector flat due to my dash not being flat. Stickyless August 25, 2015 This was MAGIC in my Corolla. It held my radar detector as if I had super glued it to the dash. NO JOKE. But in my truck, I have the same dash (texture / curves/ etc) as my Corolla, BUT - it has somewhat of a powdery type coating. I tried rubbing alcohol, and cleaning the powdery type coating - but no-dice. Now I have this majorly sticky gel pad that sticks to the radar detector like glue, but, the pad won't even sit on the dash of my truck. It just slides right off. I guess it depends on your dash type. Both of my vehicles are modern Toyotas. I don't get it. I was not impressed. Perhaps my detector is too heavy.... May 25, 2015 This pad is sticky and adheres to the dash of your car, until it gets dusty. The other issue is on very hot days, it adheres to the detector and comes off each time you remove your detector. On cold days, the detector will not adhere at all. I'd look elsewhere for a product. I had a few times when I turned the car and the detector went flying across the dash! | 12% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Two Star Reviews: | 3% | 6% Didn't live up to expectations. July 13, 2017 thought it would be a high quality rubber pad, but it's a flimsy thin pad that would only be appropriate for a very flat dashboard with a driver who never takes sharp turns. I don't use it. I think a dual pair of Velcro strips may work better. Poor Grade for Green or Longevity April 18, 2017 This product does a good job at supplying stablility of whatever on your dashboard. However, the material breaks down into a sticky, liquid mess after being in the sun for any length of time. I live in NY , by the Canadian border, so I am not even talking about excessive sunlight or heat. I could only imagine the mess if I lived in FL.anyhow, it will last a about 2 weeks in the sunlight and you will need to throw out and replace. Not a good ecologically sound choice. Does Not Perform As Advertised November 11, 2016 I bought this with high hopes, especially since it apparently is intended for radar detectors. It didn't take long before it went flying across my dash on an unassuming turn. The attached pictures shows the start of the product curling up. Radar Detector Magic Mounting Pad October 18, 2016 I need to state right away that when it comes to gripping things and staying in place, it works awesome. The problem I had is that it can't be left on the dash in the summer. You have to install and remove it every time or it will melt into, and leave a permanent shape in your dash. The grip and holding abilities are great. Not recommended... need another solution October 19, 2015 with all the dust that is in the car, I can't imagine this working a long time. I wanted to place this on the dash near me and with the cord needing to stretch a bit.. the radar detector wouldn't stay. Plus I needed something that would get alot of wear due to the frequency of radar detector being moved back and forth. This would lose its "stickiness" in a very short time since it collects all the dust. Strong glue hard to take off July 20, 2015 I installed unit on dash. Radar radar detector real hard to take off and on you don't want to get a $300 detective stolen ..so you want to get off every time you leave a car you cannot do that because it's super sticky. | 10% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

One Star Reviews: | 15% Dont be cheap and spend more on quality January 11, 2016 Doesn't pick up anything. And has false readings all the time. Spend more money and buy something better Hit or Miss quality. Mine was a miss! Detects AFTER you pass radar trap! December 4, 2015 Please note that this review is about PRODUCT and NOT seller. I hate to give bad reviews to any product. I always contact the seller or vendor to see what they are willing to do for a customer before I review. In this case, both product and Cobra were one star. I noticed a lot of great or poor reviews at same time. This must be due to poor Cobra quality control. This unit replaced a 35.00 cheap (no name) brand that I won in a rafle somewhere. The cheap one detected police at half mile or better but had x always enabled, so t did give a lot of false alarms. I replaced it because after about 5 years of abuse the volume wheel broke. I set up the Cobra in same location as old. I at first enabled ALL bands This detector had a forward range of about 50 to 100FT!!! It appeared to only work when you were directly n front of the radar device and actually worked better AFTER you passed it. I tested it at speed camera zones where you get the sign that indicates your speed before they snap your picture. I would also get various false alerts when I wasn't within a mile of anything. I live on flat and open country. Wrote Cobra directly and they said I had to send back (at my expense) so they could "test" it. This was NOT a working device that failed under warranty. It was basically DOA. Cobra still insisted I return for "repair". The device arrived packaged securely and showed no signs of dropping or damage so it wasn't dropped. Fortunately, Amazon offered to fully refund this and provided me a free shipping label. I will NOT buy any Cobra anything in the future. It is very annoying and it is being returned November 29, 2015 The only thing this thing does is beep..CONSTANTLY. It is very annoying and it is being returned!! Cobra November 9, 2015 This does not perform as advertised. It gives me a warning when I am on top of the radar unit. | 14% JUNK dashboard mounting pad, wasted my money! June 26, 2017 Not sticky enough to even stay on my dashboard let alone hold my passport radar detector on the dash from jinX. I have purchased mounting pads from other sellers and they are sticky and they work just fine. This pad is worthless! Tape would work better than this useless pad May 9, 2017 It worked good the first week, but lost it stickiness thereafter. I read that it's washable, so maybe that might help make it sticky again. I don't have time for that. My detector came with a suction mount for the windshield which I use now and should've stuck with. It has no flaws. Buy at your own risk. Did not like. April 20, 2017 WAY TOO STICKY! I would never put this on my dash. It would likely just damage the plastic. I have had other dash pads that work fine, this one feels oily and way too sticky. Wasted money, unless you want something really sticky. Dont bother with this one December 16, 2016 Melted once it got hot outside then left a gooey mess on my dashboard. Waste of money Complete Failure May 4, 2016 Total waste of money. It has lost all its adhesive ability after just two weeks. Worked great - for a week. Now it's as sticky as a sheet of glass.I haven't experienced such a poor product in years. And our weather has not been hot nor cold here in NC in early May, so it hasn't been baked or frozen, it's just useless. Not suitable for the dash. October 12, 2015 Gave this as a gift to someone, and at first it was awesome. Then summer temperatures came, and even though the car was covered most of the time, this little pad melted on the dash ! Something that is going to be on your dash should be able to withstand warm temperatures ! | 18% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
