RAM X-Grip Cradle Suction Cup (RAP-SB-224-2-UN7U)

I use it on an ocean racing ski to hold my iPhone (in a waterproof bag) I run a paddling app called 'motionize', it also holds my Garmin gps. It gets hit by waves and never lets go. You don't have to worry about loosing your expensive phone or gps when it's secured by this, but I do have a tether attached just in case. A great piece of kit and a great price from ja-gps.

I'm a fond user of RAM mounts both in the car and on the motorbike. I have found their quality to be nothing short of excellent and beyond expectations. Maybe I'm rating this a bit hash because I'm used to the high quality of product that RAM mounts give - but I was a little disappointed when I received this product - as it's the first unit that has met expectation, but not exceeded it like others I've purchased. This unit isn't fully modular like previous RAM mount units I've purchased. It doesn't have the same feel or quality as other RAM mount units, and seems to be a little more restrictive with angles compared to other units I've purchased. Don't misunderstand - there's nothing wrong with this unit, and it's still a quality piece of equipment but the next time I purchase this I'd go for the RAM-HOL-UN7BU-PLA package which contains the RAP-B-104-224U and the RAM-HOL-UN7BU as a modular unit. (And feels a little better quality again and gives me more options to add to it if it doesn't suit when I change vehicles, etc).

Perfect grip to window that will absolutely not fall off like every onther one I've had. It was facing the phone too far downwards on install however, so we had to purchase an additional piece to give it more reach to be able to seen properly. Since doing that, product is great. I think it should come with the grip though.

Tried this mount in 4 different vehicles but all vehicles had the phone pointed at a downward angle which made it unusable. Mount probably has other uses, just not suitable for vehicle windscreens.

Very sturdy piece of kit but not particularly suitable for mounting a SatNav device on a vehicle with a sloping windscreen (in my case a SAAB). The result is that the face of the SatNav is angled downwards and is therefore difficult to read, which defeats the purpose. Spring mechanism requires a bit of strength to operate but means your device is held securely. Probably perfect for a 4WD or similar..
